Materials and methods

GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
but study conducted in a laboratory holding a current statement of GLP compliance.
Details on methods and data evaluation:
The test substance, titanium nitride, was conditioned for 16 hours at 40 °C, with a Nitrogen gas purge, cooled and then run on the Porosimeter.

Full isothermal analysis (porosity) was performed using Barrett-Joyner-Halenda (BJH) method with relative pressure (P/Po) range of 0.05 up to 1.00 followed by desorption back down to a relative pressure of 0.06.

The BET Surface Area was assessed using the relative pressure (P/Po) range of 0.05 up to 0.30 and a minimum of 3 points selected over the range to obtain acceptable correlation coefficients of ≥ 0.9975 and positive intercept.

Duplicated analysis was performed.
