Multilayer adsorption on fractal surfaces: Effect of the adsorbate-adsorbate interactions on the sorptional equilibrium

An analytical isotherm equation that can be applied to water vapor-biopolymer systems, was developed. The model describes the multilayer adsorption on fractal surfaces with energetic interactions adsorbate-adsorbate (measure in terms of free energy) different from that of bulk water. Assuming explic...
