IGAsorp Ultra is the latest addition to its Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS) product range. Engineered for maximum flexibility and designed to unlock a wider range of conditions, IGAsorp Ultra represents a major advancement in DVS capability. IGAsorp Ultra delivers comprehensive water and organic vapor sorption performance, supported by a range of thermostat options including a 5 to 85 °C configuration for superior temperature control and programmability. The system’s next-generation vapor sorption module introduces dual vapor generators, external reservoirs for automatic generator refills and highly effective purging for seamless multi-vapor workflows. The system also introduces real-time vapor concentration monitoring through an organics sensor and an absolute pressure sensor, which enable direct, traceable measurements of organic vapor partial pressures. This gives users confidence that programmed conditions are reliably achieved and held with exceptional stability throughout the experiment. IGAsorp Ultra incorporates this company’s microbalance technology with an independent thermostat, delivering low drift and high mass resolution performance to ensure even subtle sorption events are captured with confidence. Applications of the system include pharmaceuticals, porous materials, polymers and other fields where moisture and organic vapor interactions are critical. — Hiden Isochema, Warrington, U.K.
