Oa. Kolyadina et al., Thermodynamic characteristics of hydrocarbon and chloroalkane adsorption by polymethylsilsesquioxane, RUSS CHEM B, 49(12), 2000, pp. 2000-2002
Adsorption of n-alkanes (C7H16-C11H24), cyclohexane, benzene, CHCl3, CCl4,
and ClCH2CH2Cl by polymethylsilsesquioxane [MeSi(OH)(0.4)O-1.3](n) was inve
stigated by inverse gas chromatography in the Henry region. The adsorption
isotherms are linear for all adsorbates. The standard changes in the thermo
dynamic parameters of adsorption were determined. The absence of specific s
electivity with respect to aliphatic, cyclic, or aromatic hydrocarbons or c
hloroalkanes indicates that the adsorbent is chemically homogeneous.
