Abstract

Experimental measurements and molecular statistics methods were used to calculate thermodynamic characteristics of adsorption (TCA) of alkyladamantanes of different structure on the surface of hydrogen-treated graphitized thermal carbon black (GTCB) Carbopack C HT. High selectivity of separation of isomeric alkyladamantanes on GTCB is due to specific features of their geometry and electronic structure. The influence of the spatial structure of adsorbates on the TCA was established. Special attention was given to analysis of the heat capacities of adsorption. The best agreement between the experimental TCA and those calculated by the molecular statistics methods is achieved when the “cage effect“ in the adamantane ring is taken into account. The corresponding corrections are introduced into the parameters of the atom-atomic potential function of pair intermolecular interaction of the Me groups with the carbon atoms of the basal face of graphite, which are localized in the nodal positions of the lattice. The critical parameters for a large group of alkyladamantanes were calculated in terms of the additive group Lydersen method. A set of various topological indices used further for constructing structure-retention correlations on GTCB was obtained.
