| dc.description.abstract | (i) A three-state model allowing two orientational states
for the solvent and one for the organic adsorbate is analysed
to obtain the adsorption isotherm. The approximations under
which pseudo Frumkin isotherm can arise are briefly sketched.
(ii) Several variations of the model, such as (i) two
orientational states for the adsorbate, (ii) the case of α = 0,
aₛ = ∞ and (iii) the site-occupancy differences between
the solvent and the adsorbate are also briefly indicated.
A critique of the earlier theory of Bockris, Devanathan
and Muller is discussed in detail and inconsistencies in their
formalism are analysed.
(iv) Schematic plots of θ vs α at various adsorbate
concentrations are given, as a function of molecular parameters. | |
