Hydrogen Adsorption Isotherms: Modelling of Experimental Data

  • Published:
Journal of Low Temperature Physics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Adsorption isotherm measurements have shown deviations from classical theories in the past, leading to the inclusion of more complex effects into adsorption theory. We demonstrate here that in the case of hydrogen adsorption above the triple point measured by surface plasmon spectroscopy the main deviation is related to the measurement method itself. Modelling of the experimental data shows good agreement with the classical theoretical expectations, without the need of additional contributions.
