CONT

surface spécifique : plus la surface spécifique d'un adsorbant est grande, plus le soluté est retenu. On peut dire [...] que le volume de phase mobile adsorbée est proportionnel à la surface spécifique du support. Augmenter la surface spécifique d'un support augmente donc le facteur de capacité, toutes choses égales par ailleurs.
