Abstract
The water sorption isotherm over AlPO4-5, in which a low sorption capa city in the initial region followed by a steep rise in sorption is obs erved, is different from those obtained for polar molecules, namely ac etonitrile, ammonia and methanol. An attempt has been made to explain the water sorption behaviour on the basis of a condensation phenomenon using the structural characteristics of AlPO4-5. (C) 1998 Elsevier Sc ience B.V.
