Objective
To present different types of adsorption isotherms using the common chromatographic terms To present different methods which are used to determine the adsorption isotherms
where x is the quantity adsorbed m is the mass of the adsorbent C is the concentration of adsorbate k and n are empirical constants for each adsorbent-adsorbate pair at a given temperature
where is the concentration of i in solid phase (adsorbent) is the concentration of i in mobile phase is the partial pressure of component i is the equilibrium constant of component i
If HA>HB
Now on the basis of PA and PB characteristics Langmuir isotherm can be divided as:
PA PB Name Characteristics
+1
-1 +1
+1
-1 -1
Langmuir
Anti-Langmuir Mixed (M1)
-1
+1
Mixed (M2)
Often molecules do form multilayers Langmuir isotherm is not valid In 1938 Stephan Brunauer, Paul Emmett, and Edward Teller
BET
Solute adsorbs on a flat, uniform surface of the solid Uniform heat of adsorption due to van der Waals forces between the solute and the solid. There is no lateral interaction between the adsorbed molecules The adsorption of the second and subsequent layers occurs with a heat of adsorption equal to the heat of liquefaction of the solute
successive heats of adsorption for all layers except the first
Where na is the adsorbed amount nm is the amount of solute required to form a monolayer of the adsorbate x is the relative concentration, C/Co c is a dimensionless constant greater than one and dependent on temperature
Enthalpy of adsorption for subsequent layers Enthalpy of adsorption for mono layer

Where nA is the adsorbed amount nm,A is the amount of solute A required to form a monolayer of the adsorbate x is the relative concentration, C/Co cA= BET isotherm constant for solute A cB= BET isotherm constant for solute B
