Abstract
The use of low temperature gas adsorption and mercury penetration experiments to characterise the structure of a porous medium is a well recognised technique. Mercury penetration experiments are used to characterise the macropores (>250 Å) and adsorption the mesopores (<250 Å) and micropores (10 Å). A detailed review of the experimental procedures involved has been carried out by Baiker (1).
