- A material that sorbs another substance; i.e. that has the capacity or tendency to take it up by either absorption or adsorption
- A sorbent is a material used to absorb liquids or gases. Examples include: *A material similar to molecular sieve material. It has a large internal surface area and good thermal conductivity. ...
- A substance that can enable sorption
- (Sorbents) materials capable of adsorption (attracting and holding substances upon its surface [e.g., charcoal]) and absorption (sucking in and holding a substance within a porous material [e.g., sponges]) used to clean up spills.
- (Sorbents) means essentially inert and insoluble materials that are used to remove oil and hazardous substances from water through adsorption, in which the oil or hazardous substance is attracted to the sorbent surface and then adheres to it, absorption, in which the oil or hazardous substance ...
- All products designed to absorb and/or adsorb liquid spilled in the environment, in order to facilitate their recovery.
- The substrate into which or onto which a substance is sorbed or both.
- Stone containing calcium, used to capture sulfur in a fluid bed boiler .
- Refers to a packing used in LC. Common sorbents are polymers, silica gel, alumina, titania, zirconia, and chemically modified materials.
