At the start of an analysis, the liquid nitrogen level should be no higher than 1\/4 in. (0.64 cm) from the top of the isothermal jacket. Overfilling overrides the function of the isothermal jacket and prevents effective control of the cold zone around the sample tube throughout the analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the Dewar is filled to a level above the top of the isothermal jacket, the evaporation of the portion of LN<sub>2<\/sub> above the jacket allows the emerging sample tube to warm somewhat during the run. This causes the subsequent analysis to be somewhat in error due to the small change in gas capacity of the warmed portion.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"251\" src=\"https:\/\/micromeritics.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/app-note-84-GHX.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5973\" srcset=\"https:\/\/micromeritics.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/app-note-84-GHX.png 400w, https:\/\/micromeritics.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/app-note-84-GHX-300x188.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The top of the isothermal jackets on the sample tube and on the P<sub>0<\/sub> tube should be at the same height. Failure to have the tops at the same height will cause a mismatch in the measured cold zones between the two tubes and will result in a small P<sub>0<\/sub> matching error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Figure 2, the liquid nitrogen level was initially above the top of the isothermal jacket. The isotherm plot rises above 130 cm<sup>3<\/sup>\/g STP adsorbed between 0.1 and 0.2 P\/P<sub>0<\/sub>, then declines to just slightly above 130 cm<sup>3<\/sup>\/g STP at around 0.9 P\/P<sub>0<\/sub>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"610\" src=\"https:\/\/micromeritics.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Vol-Adsorbed-chart-1024x610.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/micromeritics.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Vol-Adsorbed-chart-1024x610.png 1024w, https:\/\/micromeritics.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Vol-Adsorbed-chart-300x179.png 300w, https:\/\/micromeritics.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Vol-Adsorbed-chart-768x458.png 768w, https:\/\/micromeritics.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Vol-Adsorbed-chart-1536x915.png 1536w, https:\/\/micromeritics.com.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Vol-Adsorbed-chart.png 1546w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Contrast this behavior with the isotherm seen in Figure 3.
