Advance Materials Technology Development with Sorption Science

On 24 June, the University of Manchester and Surface Measurement Systems will host a one-day seminar exploring how sorption science is driving innovation in advanced materials and sustainable technologies. Attendees will discover how techniques including Dynamic Vapour Sorption (DVS), Inverse Gas Chromatography (iGC), and Breakthrough Analysis provide critical insight into material behaviour, performance, and functionality.

The programme will showcase applications across polymers, coatings, PIMs (Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity), biochar, carbon capture, fuel cells, and emerging battery materials, highlighting how sorption and surface characterisation techniques support next-generation technology development.

Bringing together academic and industrial expertise, the seminar offers a valuable opportunity to exchange ideas, gain practical insight, and connect with researchers working at the forefront of materials innovation.
