Surface Tension of Solids in the Absence of Adsorption
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method has been recently proposed for determining the value of the surface tension of a solid in the absence of adsorption, gammaS0, using material properties determined from vapor adsorption experiments. If valid, the value obtained for gammaS0 must be independent of the vapor used. We apply the proposed method to determine the value of gammaS0 for four solids using at least two vapors for each solid and find results that support the proposed method for determining gammaS0.

ANOMALOUS BEHAVIOR OF LIQUIDS IN ISOLATED CONTACT WITH SOLIDS t
Anomalous liquid behavior is viewed as a result of an increase in surface tension in isolated capillaries. Using a derived prime equation for this change several phenomena are treated including the strength of liquid bridges between solids, the lowering of vapor pressure, increased solubility, and adsorption-desorption hysteresis. Using experimental data available on thestrengthofliquid bridges...
متن کاملExploring mechanism of xanthate adsorption on chalcopyrite surface: An atomic force microscopy study
In this work, adsorption of the potassium amyl xanthate collector on the pure chalcopyrite surface was studied by applying atomic force microscopy (AFM). The adsorption experiments were carried out at different concentrations of the collector and at diverse pH values in the presence or absence of exterior ions. The changes occurring in the surface morphology of chalcopyrite due to the collector...
متن کاملStudying the Adsorption Behavior of a Disperse Dye on Polyethylene Terephthalate in Absence and Presence of a Nanostructured Hyperbranched Polymer
Dyeing properties of compounded polyethylene terephthalate fibers with a polyesteramide hyperbranched polymer were investigated in terms of their thermodynamic parameters, including standard affinity -Δμ⁰, enthalpy change ΔH⁰ and entropy change ΔS⁰. Results were then compared with corresponding properties of the virgin PET. The results showed that the isotherms were similar to that of virgin PE...

Through this study, the ability of a modified Peng-Robinson (MPR) equation of state in predicting the surface tension of n-alkanes based on the density functional theory approach was investigated and compared with other studies. The interfacial layer thickness and the density profile were calculated simultaneously at different temperatures from triple point to near critical point using the modi...
متن کاملApplication of TiO2–zeolite as photocatalyst for photodegradation of some organic pollutants
Immobilization of catalysts on the surface of some inert supports makes therecovering step easier. Because of the specific physicochemical properties, zeolites are good candidate as catalyst supports. In this study, zeolite X was synthesized by natural kaolin and TiO2 was incorporated into zeolite phase by impregnation method. Degradation of Safranin Orange, methylene blue and 2,4–di...
