Nobel Prize 2025: BEL Instruments in Award-Winning MOF Research

Test new key

A remarkable moment for chemistry—and for the entire Microtrac team: research supported by our BEL instruments has been recognized with the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

Precision trusted by Nobel laureates Among the tools used by the laureates are BEL instruments, renowned for high precision and reliability in adsorption and catalysis analyses. They deliver exact data on surface area and porosity—decisive parameters in MOF research and in the development of new materials.

BEL instruments enable:

• Adsorption and catalysis analyses
• Precise surface and porosity measurements
• Reliable data for materials research worldwide

Global expertise—united by science

This recognition reflects the international strength of the Microtrac Group, which brings together expertise and innovation around the world. Several of our scientists—including Dr. Serkan Gökpinar, Dr. Ronja Christoffels, Dr. Mahsa Armaghan, and Dr. Garrett Taggart—earned their PhDs in the field of MOFs. It underlines how closely our technology and know-how are linked to leading developments in materials science worldwide.
