The adsorption of acid processed gelatin on to silica has been studied
from the aqueous solution of gelatin at room temperature (25 degrees
C). Various adsorption and kinetic parameters have been evaluated, suc
h as the adsorption coefficient, rate constants for the adsorption and
desorption, and diffusion constants and the effects of different fact
ors on the extent of adsorption have been studied such as the pH of th
e solution, presence of inorganic salts and solvents, and temperature
of the reaction medium.
