Abstract

The gas and liquid spinodal branches for an adsorbate located in narrow slit-shaped, cylindrical, and spherocylindrical pores were calculated. The adsorbate is modeled by Lennard-Jones spherical particles. The calculation was based on the lattice gas model taking into account the intermolecular interactions of nearest neighbors in the quasichemical approximation. The density-temperature diagrams for the gas and liquid spinodal branches in the pores are similar to the equilibrium vapor-liquid phase diagrams: they have a common critical point; the dense-phase branches are shifted to lower pore fillings, while the rarefied-phase branches are shifted toward higher pore fillings. The width of adsorption-desorption hysteresis loop in the adsorption isotherms for Lennard-Jones particles was analyzed as a function of the pore size and the interaction potential of the adsorbate with the pore walls. The effect of pore wall roughness and the accuracy of isotherm calculation on the width of the adsorption-desorption hysteresis loop in cylindrical pores is discussed
