Abstract

The method of measuring f(I) values is proposed as a measure of the adsorption capacity of adsorbents. The f(I) value, a characteristic figure for a particular system, can be obtained chromatogiaphically by measuring the progression rate of zone and the degree of packing of the column. For a system involving a unit concentration of trasns- p-methoxyazobenzene in benzene as standard solution and alumina as adsorbent, optimum conditions for the measurement of f(I) were established. The effects of day-light, pretreatment of column, temperature, flow rate of solution, amount of adsorbent and degree and mode of packing were studied Under optimum conditions, the value of f(I) was reproducible within ±2%.
