Abstract

The physical principles and experimental techniques of pure gas- and multi-component gas adsorption measurements by the volumetric (or manometric) method are outlined. Examples are given. Thermovolumetric and combined volumetric- calorimetric measurements are presented. Pros and cons of the method are discussed. References. List of Symbols.
