Summary

In addition to the mass exchange the equilibrium bulk phase exerts a hydrostatic pressure on the adsorbed phase: this hydrostatic pressure is a source of an additional positive adsorption. The Jovanovic kinetical derivation is the first one taking into account the mechanical contact between adsorbed and bulk phases in the case of the systems with localized admolecules without mutual interactions. At a same numerical values of parameters the Jovanovic isotherm predicts a greater adsorption than the Langmuir does.

Zusammenfassung

Außer dem Massenaustausch übt die gleichgewichtige freie Gasphase einen hydrostatischen Druck auf die adsorbierte Phase aus: dieser hydrostatische Druck ist eine Quelle einer zusätzlichen positiven Adsorption. Die kinetische Ausführung von Jovanovic ist die erste, die den mechanischen Kontakt zwischen den adsorbierten und freien Phasen in Betracht zieht im Falle von Systemen mit lokalisierten Admolekülen ohne gegenseitige Wirkung. Mit derselben Bedeutung und numerischen Wertender Parameter sagt die Jovanovic-Isotherme eine größere Adsorption als die Gleichung von Langmuir voraus.
