On the universal bahavior of sorption isotherms in disordered mesoporous solids

Abstract

Adsorption–desorption isotherms in disordered mesoporous solids, described by the Dual Site-Bond Model, are obtained through Monte Carlo simulations and their behavior is correlated to the topological properties of the porous networks and to their percolation properties, extending previous results to the general case of variable connectivity networks. A quasi-universal curve is found which may be useful in the problem of obtaining pore size distributions from the analysis of experimental Adsorption–desorption isotherms.
