Abstract:
The reversed-flow gas chromatography (RF-GC) method has been applied to measure the time separation of adsorption entropies and their probability density functions, when acetic and formic acid vapors, responsible for artifacts degradation inside museums, are adsorbed on various heterogeneous surfaces. The solid materials studied were Penteli marble and solid metals (lead, copper and iron), which are commonly used for the construction of the artifacts. Physicochemical measurements were performed at various temperatures in the range 353-473 K, the surface coverage theta being also calculated over time. A new mathematical model, based on well known equations was used in order to extract the above quantities.

Gas Chromatography: Introduction
In GC, a sample is vaporized and mixed with an inert carrier gas (the mobile phase), which transports it through a column.

Chromatography: Introduction
The phase in which the compounds linger or on which the compounds adsorb is called the stationary phase, whereas the mobile phase is the solvent that carries the solutes to be analyzed. In traditional column chromatography, the mixture flows through the stationary phase, and the compounds partition between the stationary and mobile phases...
