The adsorption of phosphamidon on the surface of antimony(V) phosphate: A thermodynamic study

Abstract

The thermodynamics of the adsorption of phosphamidon on antimony(V) phosphate cation exchanger has been studied at 30, 45 and 50°C and the thermodynamic equilibrium constant (K₀), standard free energy change (ΔG°), enthalpy change (ΔH°) and entropy change (ΔS°) have been calculated to predict its adsorption behaviour. All the data are adequately represented by the Freundlich isotherms.
