Characterization of adsorbents by energy profile of adsorbed molecules
نویسندگان
چکیده
The energy profile, which is the energy of the adsorbed phase as a function of loading, is essential for characterizing the equilibrium behavior of adsorbents. The energy of the adsorbed phase is measured directly by calorimetry or indirectly by differentiating adsorption isotherms at constant loading. The adsorption isotherm and energy profile are sufficient for the determination of thermodynamic variables such entropy and provide a basis for predicting the behavior of nonideal, multicomponent mixtures from single-gas isotherms. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

Molecular-scale interface engineering of nanocrystalline titania by co-adsorbents for solar energy conversion.
The use of mixed self-assembled monolayers, combining hydrophobic co-adsorbents with the sensitizer, has been demonstrated to enhance the efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). Herein, the influence of the anchoring groups of the co-adsorbents on the performance of the DSCs is carefully examined by selecting two model molecules: neohexyl phosphonic acid (NHOOP) and bis-(3,3-dimethyl-b...
متن کاملA model for the release of adsorbed molecules from the surfaces of airborne particulate matter based on liquid-phase desorption from amorphous carbon blacks.
The release of molecules adsorbed on the surfaces of amorphous carbon blacks has been studied using liquid-solid chromatography. Adsorbate molecules, adsorbents, and mobile phases were selected on the basis of their relevance as models for the release of toxic agents adsorbed on inhalable environmental particulate matter that originates from the incomplete combustion of organic materials. The p...
متن کاملCharacterization of wax using potential energy and nanocalculation
Most reservoir fluids contain heavy paraffinic compounds that may precipitate as a solid or solid like material called wax if the fluid is cooled down. Wax precipitation is a phenomenon of considerable importance in oil industry. An increase in aggregation results in enhanced oil viscosity. This however causes significant negative effects on production, transportation and processing of crude oi...
