Can I use Pore-Cor Research Suite for quality assurance purposes?
Yes. Imagine a box bounded by acceptable upper and lower limits of two experimental parameters. The box is two-dimensional for 2 parameters, but for more parameters becomes a cuboid, and so on. If your product’s properties fall within the box, then it is acceptable for sale. Pore-Cor allows you to use more and/or better parameters to define the box. For example, you could replace characteristics throat diameter, which is based on the 50% intrusion point, with simulated permeability, which may be much closer to a required experimental property. We have done this for tantalum capacitors made from sintered tantalum corals – the efficiency of the final capacitors correlated closely with Pore-Cor simulated permeability. A case study with more detail will be produced about this. While working with Pore-Cor program, an error occurred with a data file. Error message was like ‘second data is lower than first data’. The software will not accept intrusion curves for which the intrusion volume goe
