This was the topic of 2018:
The next Generation of Surface Characterisation by Inverse Gas Chromatography
This 7th symposium showcased experts who all use dynamic sorption methods also known as inverse gas and liquid chromatography (IGC, ILC). In IGC the adsorption behavior of 15-25 different probe compounds is used like AFM tips to characterise the properties.
The program presented the latest, most up-to-date knowledge and experience on surface characterisation of powders and fibres. Good practices as well as critical aspects and supporting techniques were outlined (see abstracts). And structured discussions intensified the exchange of experiences – like in the successful 2017 symposium.
