15 August 2026X-ray Micro-CT for Powder Pore Networks: What It Adds Beyond Gas Pycnometry and BET Surface Area
Gas pycnometry and BET surface area each report a single number. X-ray micro-CT builds a three-dimensional map of the pore network, showing connectivity, tortuosity, and closed porosity that single-value tests cannot resolve, within real resolution and sample-size limits.
