“…Adsorption. The theoretical basis of adsorption chromatography has been discussed by several authors (62,125,184,311,385,434)• Much attention has been given to the properties of adsorbents (296,933) and to the determination of heats of sorption (414,483,588,809,1030,1092,1192,1240) and of isotherms (361,418,431,589,602, 90S, 910) to elucidate the mechanism of adsorption (386,387,501,1090,1091). While the majority of the investigators have focused their attention on the three most commonly used adsorbents, charcoal (93,326,370,371,390,519,1012,1267), alumina (202,429,597,599,626,1293), and silica (299,484,590,596,611,774,821,…”
