Additivity of Plots

One of the nice features of the % plots is that for several mixed surfaces the X plots add. This is quite obvious because the dependent variable in the X equation is amount adsorbed which, of course, must add experimentally. An important feature of the x theory is the unit step function in Eq. (107). If there are several surface planes of different energies they would simply add [Pg.104]

An additional step is taken to determine the second differential [Pg.105]

The usefulness of this last equation is that the sum of 3 functions is an expression of the distribution of and thus the distribution of the various energies of adsorption. This fact wiU be utilized when a distribution is detected, which is x plot feature 1. [Pg.105]

It is not common to find pure materials with more than two distinct energies of adsorption. It may be common to find energy distributions as will be illustrated below. A couple of examples of two distinct energies of adsorption are found with carbon and with some ceramics that have distinct crystallographic planes on the surface. [Pg.105]

45-47 show some examples of x plot where it appears that two or more energy surfaces are involved. These are vulcan and sterling FT carbon [12] and high-fired thoria [13]. The adsorption on thoria has an addition feature due to mesoporosity, which can be separated out from the simple surface adsorption. This separation will be used as an example in a later section. [Pg.105]
