摘要
Adsorption in nonporous materials has been studied using Grand Canonical Monte Carlo simulations. We discuss three types of materials: (a) a model of cylindrical pores with smooth walls, representing MCM-41 like materials, (b) a model of cylindrical pores with regular structured walls (model of carbon nanotubes) and (c) a material with crystalline wall structure (zeolites). Typical problems related to the stability of adsorbed layers have been analyzed. We have shown that the mechanism of adsorption is strongly dependent on the structure of the pore walls. In the case of amorphous walls it may lead to metastable configurations. In nanotubes, the ordered corrugation structure of walls determines the low temperature structure of the adsorbed system. In 3D ordered porous system, such as zeolites, the mechanism of adsorption is mostly determined by characteristic sites of adsorption.
