Abstract Water and methanol adsorption isotherms at 25° and 37° C.
were determined on a series of organo-bentonite clays. The clays
differed in the length of the carbon chain attached to the amine adsorbed
in the cation exchange position. The amines used had carbon
chains of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 carbon atoms. Nitrogen
isotherms at -195.8 were also determined. The apparatus used
was a gravemetric adsorption balance using quartz springs with a
sensitivity of about one millimeter extension per milligram of load.
The isotherms were typical type II isotherms and gave good
B. E. T. plots. Effective surface areas were calculated from the
B.E. T. plots. Isosteric heats of adsorption were calculated using
the Clausius-Claperon equation, with data from the isotherms at the
two temperatures.
