Porpos

Precise and user friendly measurement of porosity of felts and foams

Autoneum Porpos uses the "air-based" method to measure the porosity (ratio of air to overall volume) of felts and foams. Via a process of compressing and de-compressing air, the sample porosity can be derived from the resulting pressure changes. Porpos is perfectly suited not only for experts: it guides the user through the preparation and the software controls the measurement cycle as well as evaluates the results.

The unique benefits:

  • fast, easy and straight forward measurement procedure thanks to very user-friendly software interface
  • software evaluates results for you
  • applicable to a wide range of porous materials such as felts and foams
  • samples measured can go up to practically 100 % porosity (only air)
  • high quality measurements
