Abstract
Within the last two decades major progress has been achieved in understanding the adsorption and phase behavior of fluids in ordered nanoporous materials and in the development of advanced approaches based on statistical mechanics such as mol. simulation and d. functional theory (DFT) of inhomogeneous fluids. This progress, coupled with the availability of high resoln. exptl. procedures for the adsorption of various subcrit. fluids, has led to advances in the structural characterization by phys. adsorption. It was demonstrated that the application of DFT based methods on high resoln. exptl. adsorption isotherms provides a much more accurate and comprehensive pore size anal. compared to classical, macroscopic methods. This article discusses important aspects of major underlying mechanisms assocd. with adsorption, pore condensation and hysteresis behavior in nanoporous solids. We discuss selected examples of state-of-the-art pore size characterization and also reflect briefly on the existing challenges in phys. adsorption characterization. [on SciFinder(R)]
