Understanding the Benefits of MS-Based Detection in TPRx
Temperature-Programmed Reaction (TPRx) offers essential insight into how catalysts behave during temperature ramps. By observing the gases released or consumed during controlled heating, researchers can determine activation temperatures, identify reaction pathways, and evaluate material stability. The quality of the information derived from TPRx depends on the performance of the detector used to monitor the evolving gas…
Hiden Analytical technology has been validated for accredited groundwater monitoring in Germany

Resolving Light-Gas Overlaps for Fusion Exhaust Monitoring: ORNL Testing of Hiden HAL 101X
In support of next-generation fusion diagnostics, Oak Ridge National Laboratory has evaluated Hiden’s high-resolution quadrupole RGA approach for the ITER Diagnostic Residual Gas Analyser (DRGA), focusing on fast, selective measurement of light species in exhaust streams. The study shows how enhanced-resolution quadrupole operation can deconvolve closely spaced masses—most notably separating ⁴He from D₂—and explores the implications for quantification when additional gases such…

SIMS Surface Analysis for Battery Cathode-Electrolyte Interfaces: Depth Profiling of SEI Composition
The stability and lifetime of lithium-ion batteries hinges on deciphering the reactive processes that occur where the cathode meets the electrolyte. During cycling, electrolyte components oxidise at the cathode-electrolyte interface and form a thin, reactive interphase. This layer is commonly known as the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), or more specifically as the cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) when…
Exploring Near Atmospheric XPS (APXPS): Bringing Surface Analysis Closer to Real-World Conditions
Traditional X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) is a cornerstone technique for investigating the surface chemistry of materials. However, conventional XPS systems operate under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions — a controlled environment necessary for accurate measurements, but far removed from the pressures and reactive conditions most materials experience in real-world applications.
