Area of Science:

  • Physical Chemistry
  • Materials Science
  • Surface Science

Background:

  • Gas/solid adsorption isotherms are essential for characterizing adsorbents and adsorbate properties.
  • Existing fitting procedures are insufficient for selecting the most appropriate isotherm equation.
  • Accurate isotherm selection impacts the interpretation of adsorption phenomena.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel function, psi(p), for selecting the correct gas/solid isotherm equation.
  • To demonstrate how psi(p) can provide detailed insights into adsorption processes.
  • To propose the application of psi(p) in adsorption experiment analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the psi(p) function based on the implicit form: psi(p) = (n(s)/p)(dp/dn(s)).
