In this study, a model is proposed to calculate the Pore Size Distribution (PSD) of microporous activated carbons taking into account the defects as heterogeneity particles in the inner surface of each graphitic slit pore. ...

The percolation problem of irreversibly deposited dimers on square lattices with two kinds of sites is studied. Simple adsorptive surfaces are generated by square patches of l x l sites, which can be either arranged in a ...

The reversible adsorption process occurring on patchwise heterogeneous bivariate surfaces is studied by Monte Carlo simulation and mean-field approximation. These surfaces are characterized by a collection of deep and ...
