dc.description.abstractThe adsorption of water vapour has been studied with a range of microporous carbons, zeolites and aluminophosphates in order to elucidate the relative influence of surface chemistry, pore size and pore shape upon the form of the water isotherm. It was possible to separate the adsorbents into three groups on the basis of their affinity and capacity for water vapour. The porous carbons were further examined using the BET and Dubinin-Serpinsky equations. The results show that the adsorption of water vapour at low p/po is largely dependent upon specific adsorbent-adsorbate interactions whilst at higher relative pressures the micropore size and shape control the extent of adsorption. It is proposed that hydrogen-bonded layers of water can be more readily accommodated in the narrow slit shaped pores (∼0.5nm) of molecular sieve carbons than in tubular pores of similar width (e.g. Silicalite/ZSM-5). © 1991, Elsevier Science & Technology.
