Sorption effects in measuring the activity of gaseous substances

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The activity of CS 352 retained on the walls of the measuring equipment filled with active vapors of carbon bisulfide was determined directly.

  2. 2.

    The capture of the compound by the walls is determined to a great extent by reversible sorption, so that in normal measurements of the residual background the information on this sorption is lost.

  3. 3.

    The sorption effects are very large and differ for various materials. Values were obtained for the relative pollution by CS 352 vapors of various materials used in measuring installations with internally-filled counters.

  4. 4.

    A relationship was obtained between the pollution of various materials and the density of the active carbon bisulfide vapors in a chamber.
