Abstract:

THE SORPTION ISOTHERM METHOD WAS USED TO DETERMINE THE PORE-SIZE DISTRIBUTION OF A FRIABLE IOWA LOESS. BOTH THE ADSORPTION AND THE DESORPTION BRANCHES WERE USED FOR PORE-SIZE DISTRIBUTION ANALYSIS. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 2 BRANCHES WAS INTERPRETED AS AN INDICATION OF THE EXTENT OF CONSTRUCTIONS WITHIN THE PORE STRUCTURE ACCORDING TO MCBAIN'S 'INK-BOTTLE" THEORY. PORE-SIZE DISTRIBUTION CURVES OBTAINED FROM THE ADSORPTION ISOTHERM WERE COMPATIBLE WITH MERCURY POROSIMETRY RESULTS. PROCEDURES FOR EVALUATION OF PORE-SIZE DISTRIBUTION FROM SORPTION DATA ARE DESCRIBED, AND THE PORE-SIZE RANGE IS NOTED. /AUTHOR/
