Adsorption of Oleic Acid on Silica Gel Derived from Rice Ash Hulls: Experimental and Theoretical Studies
Experimental and quantum chemical calculations have been used to study the adsorption of oleic acid on silica gel derived from rice ash hulls. Characterization of the gel showed that it had a BET specific surface area of 131.7 m 2 /g and a point of zero charge (pzc) at a pH value of 3. A maximum cap...
