Stem layer adsorption was involved in the discussion of the effect of ions on f potentials (Section V-6), electrocapillary behavior (Section V-7), and electrode potentials (Section V-8) and enters into the effect of electrolytes on charged monolayers (Section XV-6). More speciflcally, this type of behavior occurs in the adsorption of electrolytes by ionic crystals. A large amount of wotk of this type has been done, partly because of the importance of such effects on the purity of precipitates of analytical interest and partly because of the role of such adsorption in coagulation and other colloid chemical processes. Early studies include those by Weiser [157], by Paneth, Hahn, and Fajans [158], and by Kolthoff and co-workers [159], A recent calorimetric study of proton adsorption by Lyklema and co-workers [160] supports a new thermodynamic analysis of double-layer formation. A recent example of this is found in a study... 

When the film thickens beyond two or three molecular layers, the effect of surface structure is largely smoothed out. It should therefore be possible, as Hill and Halsey have argued, to analyse the isotherm in the multilayer region by reference to surface forces (Chapter 1), the partial molar entropy of the adsorbed film being taken as equal to that of the liquid adsorptive. By application of the 6-12 relation of Chapter 1 (with omission of the r" term as being negligible except at short distances) Hill was able to arrive at the isotherm equation... 

Both UPS and XPS of solids are useful techniques. So far as studies of adsorption by surfaces are concerned we would expect UPS, involving only valence orbitals, to be more sensitive. For example, if we wish to determine whether nitrogen molecules are adsorbed onto an iron surface with the axis of the molecule perpendicular or parallel to the surface it would seem that the valence orbitals would be most affected. This is generally the case but, because ultraviolet photoelectron spectra of solids are considerably broadened, it is the X-ray photoelectron spectra that are usually the most informative. 

Mlcrofiltra.tlon, Various membrane filters have been used to remove viral agents from fluids. In some cases, membranes which have pores larger than the viral particle can be used if the filtration is conducted under conditions which allow for the adsorption of the viral particle to the membrane matrix. These are typically single-pass systems having pore sizes of 0.10—0.22 lm. Under situations which allow optimum adsorption, between 10—10 particles of poHovims (28—30 nm) were removed (34—36). The formation of a cake layer enhanced removal (35). The titer reduction when using 0.10—0.22 p.m membrane filters declined under conditions which minimized adsorption. By removal standards, these filters remove vimses at a rate on the low end of the desired titer reduction and the removal efficiency varies with differences in fluid chemistry and surface chemistry of viral agents (26). 

Lignosulfonate has been reported to increase foam stabihty and function as a sacrificial adsorption agent (175). Addition of sodium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate to the surfactant solution reduces surfactant adsorption by increasing the aqueous-phase pH (176). 

At low relative humidities, adsorption is due to interaction of water with accessible hydroxyl groups. These are present on the lignin and on the carbohydrates ia the noncrystalline or poorly crystalline regions. The high differential heat of adsorption by dry wood, - 1.09 kJ/g (469 Btu/lb) water.

Fig. 4.59. Raman spectrum of methyl mercaptan (a) and SERS spectrum of methyl mercaptide (b) formed by adsorption ofthe mercaptan on a silver surface. The surface reaction is proven by the disappearance ofthe S-H stretching and bending bands at 2575 cm" and 806 cm", respectively. The Raman shift ofthe C-S stretching band at approximately 700 cm" is reduced during adsorption by withdrawal of electron density from the C-S, because of bonding to the silver. The symmetric methyl stretching appears above 2900cm" [4.303].

A platinum on silica gel catalyst was prepared by impregnation of silica gel (BDH, for chromatographic adsorption) by a solution containing 0.5% (wt.) of sodium hydroxide and 0.5% (wt.) of chloroplatinic acid (both of analytical grade). The dried catalyst contained 1% (wt.) of platinum and a corresponding amount of the alkaline component. The BET surface area of the catalyst was 40 m2/g, the mean pore radius 150 A. The catalyst was always reduced directly in the reactor in a stream of hydrogen at 200°C for 2 hr.
