Physicochemical characterization of interfaces.

Reversed-flow inverse gas chromatography (RF-IGC) was used to measure, directly from experimental data, adsorption energies, local adsorption isotherms, the probability density function for the adsorption energies, and lateral interaction parameters, as distributed over experimental time. Local isotherms and the distribution energy function were correlated with adsorption energy. The results obtained are comparable to those calculated on the basis of the well-known integral equation. The RF-IGC method was used with the two most common hydrocarbons, acetylene and 1-butene, as probe gases, in the presence and absence of ozone, and with magnesium oxide and silicon oxide as solid adsorbents.

Experimental determination of adsorption energies, adsorption isotherms, probability density functions, and lateral molecular interactions on CXHY/CaO systems.

Reversed-flow gas chromatography (RF-GC) is extended to the measurements of the probability density function for the adsorption energies as well as the differential energies of adsorption due to lateral interactions of molecules adsorbed on different heterogeneous solid surfaces. All these calculations are based on a non-linear adsorption isotherm model as it is well accepted that the linear one is inadequate for substances such as these used in this work. Thus, some new important physicochemical parameters have been obtained for the characterization of the heterogeneous systems studied. The adsorbent used in this study was calcium oxide. The adsorption of many significant hydrocarbons was investigated. With these systematic experiments under conditions which are similar to the atmospheric ones, an extrapolation of the results obtained to "real" atmospheres with a high degree of confidence is possible.

Experimental adsorption isotherms based on inverse gas chromatography.

A new chromatographic perturbation method is used for studying the adsorption-desorption equilibrium in various gas-solid heterogeneous systems. It is the reversed-flow method giving accurate and precise values of many physicochemical constants including the basic and necessary adsorption isotherm values. For four inorganic oxides, namely, Cr2O3, Fe2O3, TiO2 and PbO, and two aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene) these adsorption isotherms have been determined through a non-linear model.
