Langmuir isotherm
The Langmuir Isotherm is a model that describes how gases or liquids adsorb onto solid surfaces. It suggests that molecules attach to the surface in a way that each spot can hold only one molecule, preventing overcrowding. As more molecules come in contact with the surface, the rate of adsorption increases until it reaches a limit—known as saturation—where all available spots are filled. This concept helps in understanding processes like catalysis, pollution control, and sensor technology, where surface interactions play a crucial role in efficiency and effectiveness.
