Abstract
The Guttmann and other macroscopic thermodynamical analyses of surface segregation are discussed in terms of a model presented by the authors. Several inconsistencies in these descriptions are identified and discussed. The correct criteria for the occurrence of discontinuous transitions in the segregation isotherm and surface coverage vs temperature curves are presented.
