Pore-Comp is a computer software package that was created by the Environmental and Fluid Modelling group to correct mercury porosimetry intrusion curves for the compression of mercury, expansion of the glass sample chamber or 'penetrometer' and compressibility of the solid phase of the sample by use of our equations published in Gane et al. (1995). Its usefulness is that the user can zoom in to parts of the intrusion curve, and apply compressibility corrections. These prepare the intrusion curve for analysis by Pore-Cor, and also give useful measurements of the compressibility of the solid phase of the porous matrix, rather than the compressibility of the sample envelope. It forms part of Pore-Cor Research Suite - see Pore-Comp specifications.

Shown above is a screen shot of the Data Review form , which allows calculation of the bulk modulus of the solid phase.

Shown below is a typical graphical output. The Trim and Zoom tools are not shown.
