The software fully automates complex workflows, freeing up researchers for other tasks, while eliminating the chance of human error.

This process can be both time-consuming and tedious, with operators only collecting compositional information for a few dozen particles per day. By fully automating this workflow, APW lets researchers focus on results rather than process. Moreover, thousands of data points can be easily collected and characterized in a single day, with statistically relevant data sometimes generated in just one hour.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size:100%\"><strong>Catalyst research with APW<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Likewise, <a href=\"https:\/\/ter.li\/cudvxq\">APW will transform catalyst research<\/a> in a wide range of industries. Nanoparticles are commonly used as catalysts due to their high surface area, which provides many sites for chemical reactions to occur. To improve catalytic efficiency, researchers are constantly working to enhance the properties of nanoparticles by studying these particles using TEM imaging and EDS. Using APW, they can fully automate this process and obtain accurate information about the microstructural and chemical composition of their catalytic nanoparticles far quicker and without the need for an operator to physically manage the workflow.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12127 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/admin.acceleratingscience.com\/materials\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/apw-blog-metals_9_1_21.png\" alt=\"Nanoparticle analysis of precipitates on a microalloyed steel carbon replica sample\" title=\"Nanoparticle analysis of precipitates on a microalloyed steel carbon replica sample\" width=\"485\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/admin.acceleratingscience.com\/materials\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/apw-blog-metals_9_1_21.png 336w, https:\/\/admin.acceleratingscience.com\/materials\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/apw-blog-metals_9_1_21-300x121.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 485px) 100vw, 485px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>Automated, large-area TEM acquisition using APW for analysis of individual nanoparticle parameters.
