Notice Information
Notice Title
Sorption Analysis Suite
Notice Description
The University has purchased an advanced sorption analysis suite to be used for a gas adsorption by functional porous materials application.
Lot Information
Lot 1
The University has purchased an advanced sorption analysis suite to be used for a gas adsorption by functional porous materials application. This compromises a gas sorption analyzer, automated breakthrough analyzer with integrated mass spectrometer and vapor sorption analyzer.
Procurement Information
Whilst other companies may potentially be able to offer similar instrumentation in some respects, they are not capable of the same specifications or functionality. The instrument package that has been purchased is considered to be a breakthrough instrument which is integrated to a level that is not available in the wider supply market. This instrument is considered to be unique in the marketplace. The supply market for this type of niche instrumentation is naturally limited and academic colleagues have previously conducted a degree of soft market testing to ascertain whether competitor products may be able to provide the required integration and functionality. No other companies have been identified who can provide this - the University would have to procure from several different companies to somewhat replicate the Hiden Isochema Ltd instrument package. This would be suboptimal in terms of the University's research needs.
