ADSORPTION OF STERICALLY HINDERED PHENOLS ON CARBON

Abstract
The Freundlich isotherms for the adsorption of some ortho-alkylated phenols on carbon from cyclohexane solution have been determined. The minimum surface area covered by the adsorbed phenols is compared with the area of the molecules themselves. Large alkyl groups ortho to the hydroxyl group greatly reduce the adsorption.
