Analytical solution of Langmuir behavior of Statistical Rate Theory: Adsorption at solid/solution interface

Abstract

In this study, the first complete analytical solution for Langmuir behavior of the Statistical Rate Theory at solid/solution interface is provided. The rate equations for dependence of the amount adsorbed on time were derived at the different condition. The kinetics data were created by numerical solution of rate equation developed from the fundamental SRT approach to adsorption at solid/solution interface based on Langmuir model. The created data were used to examine the accuracy of the new equations. Some empirical data were chosen to check the applicability of the new linear rate equations. The perfect agreement between the results of the obtained rate equations and the created and empirical data prove the accuracy of the analytical solution of Langmuir behavior of SRT rate equation at solid/solution interface.
