Introducing the new ChemiSorb Auto: Essential chemisorption, ultimate value

12.03.26

Micromeritics is proud to introduce the ChemiSorb Auto, a new fully automated chemisorption analyzer engineered to deliver precise, reliable catalyst characterization in an affordable and compact system. Designed for labs that refuse to compromise on data quality, the ChemiSorb Auto redefines what is possible in essential chemisorption analysis.

 

Solving Long‑Standing Challenges in Catalyst Characterization

 

Catalyst developers and QC teams depend on accurate measurement of active surface sites and catalytic properties. Yet for many laboratories, advanced automation has been difficult to access—forcing researchers to rely on manual workflows, outdated instrumentation, or complex workarounds that compromise reliability.

 

With the ChemiSorb Auto, Micromeritics eliminates these barriers. The system combines precision, simplicity, and value, giving labs a dependable solution for routine characterization without unnecessary cost or operational complexity.

 

Precision Without Compromise

The ChemiSorb Auto brings a new standard of performance to essential chemisorption measurements:

  • Repeatability within ±1% ensures consistent, dependable results across QC, catalyst screening, and R&D workflows.
  • Minimal void volume delivers near‑instantaneous detector response, allowing users to capture accurate temperature profiles with minimal lag.
  • Built‑in automation, including our patented gas blending valve, ensures run‑to‑run consistency and reduces operator error.
  • MicroActive software enables seamless data reduction with smart peak integration, shortening the path from sample to insight.

 

These capabilities empower users to generate high‑quality data quickly and confidently—without the compromises typically associated with manual or semi‑automated systems.

 

Built for the Demands of Busy Catalyst Labs

The ChemiSorb Auto performs the core characterization techniques relied on by catalyst manufacturers and researchers worldwide:

  • Temperature‑programmed reduction (TPR)
  • Temperature‑programmed desorption (TPD)
  • Temperature‑programmed oxidation (TPO)
  • Pulse chemisorption

 

All measurements are fully automated, making the system ideal for labs that need to qualify catalysts rapidly and deliver to their customers without sacrificing quality. The accessible price point and simplified workflow make high‑repeatability chemisorption attainable for even the busiest environments.

 

Supporting Real‑World Catalysis Challenges

To highlight the ChemiSorb Auto’s versatility, Micromeritics demonstrates how the system supports catalyst research across a range of critical applications, including CO₂ utilization chemistry:

  1. Sabatier reaction (CO₂ + H₂) — On nickel and copper oxide catalysts, TPR reveals the stabilization of active species on the support, influencing catalyst lifetime and performance.
  2. Catalyst regeneration cycles — TPO helps assess how effectively catalysts are restored between reaction stages.
  3. Methanol‑to‑olefins (MTO) — Ammonia TPD quantifies zeolite acidity, a key variable determining selectivity and efficiency.

 

These use cases reflect the system’s ability to deliver reliable, application‑ready insights for both industrial and academic environments.

 

Engineered for Simplicity, Speed, and Confidence

From streamlined sample loading to moisture‑control options, the ChemiSorb Auto is designed for ease of operation. Paired with MicroActive’s intuitive analysis tools, users can interpret results more quickly—accelerating decision‑making and improving lab efficiency.

 

Every ChemiSorb Auto is backed by Micromeritics’ global service team, trained in the latest techniques and best practices for overcoming practical laboratory challenges.

 

Discover Chemisorption Without Compromise

With the launch of the ChemiSorb Auto, Micromeritics delivers essential chemisorption capabilities with a level of precision, usability, and value that modern labs require. The system integrates smoothly into existing workflows while elevating data quality and consistency.
