absorbant : Ce terme se rapporte aux solides et aux liquides qui ont la propriété de retenir certaines substances (gaz ou liquides) dans la totalité de leur volume et qui servent à séparer d'un mélange gazeux certains de ses éléments par dissolution sélective dans un solvant. Il appartient donc au domaine du génie chimique, et non nucléaire. 4, record 1, French, - absorbeur
