Abstract
ADSORPTION studies currently in progress in these laboratories are providing evidence that the application of the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method to room-temperature isotherms is in certain instances liable to lead to substantial errors. The adsorption of methanol on lignites at 25° C. presents a case in point.
