Abstract

Conclusions A complete description of physical adsorption of a vapor on an heterogeneous microporous solid is presented in terms of the distribution functions that characterize the structural and energetic heterogeneities of this solid. It is shown that characterization of the structural heterogeneity of the micropores of a solid by the gamma distribution, viz., eq 13, leads to simple equations for the characteristic adsorption curve, viz., eq 23, the ...
