Abstract
The most commonly used methods of characterization of mesoporous materials involve measurement of the adsorption isotherm for a simple gas at some low fixed temperature, usually the normal boiling point. Observation of the condensation pressure in the pores makes it possible to estimate the pore size distribution and the surface area. In this note we review experimental and molecular simulation results for the pressure-temperature phase diagram for adsorbates confined within nano-porous materials, and point out that both the triple point and the pressure-dependence of the melting line are strikingly different from these properties for the bulk adsorbate. We suggest that further investigation of these two properties, and of their underlying interpretation at the molecular-level, are worthy of further study, with a view to improved characterization of nano-porous materials.
期刊介绍：
The journal Adsorption provides authoritative information on adsorption and allied fields to scientists, engineers, and technologists throughout the world. The information takes the form of peer-reviewed articles, R&D notes, topical review papers, tutorial papers, book reviews, meeting announcements, and news.
Coverage includes fundamental and practical aspects of adsorption: mathematics, thermodynamics, chemistry, and physics, as well as processes, applications, models engineering, and equipment design.
Among the topics are Adsorbents: new materials, new synthesis techniques, characterization of structure and properties, and applications; Equilibria: novel theories or semi-empirical models, experimental data, and new measurement methods; Kinetics: new models, experimental data, and measurement methods. Processes: chemical, biochemical, environmental, and other applications, purification or bulk separation, fixed bed or moving bed systems, simulations, experiments, and design procedures.
