Abstract

Counter-diffusion of coronene desorbed from alumina with addition of tetra-phenylporphine was studied by spectrophotometry. The counter-diffusion processes of adsorbing and desorbing materials in liquid phase were simulated by counter-diffusion model based on Fritz's binary component isotherm under an assumption of equimass diffusion. The counter-diffusivities of desorbed coronene with addition of tetra-phenylporphine were as <TEX>${\sim}10^{-15}m^2/sec$</TEX> and that of adsorbed tetra-phenylporphine as <TEX>${\sim}10^{-11}m^2/sec$</TEX>. The counter-diffusivity of coronene determined from desorption process was smaller by <TEX>${\sim}10^5$</TEX> times than the diffusivity determined from adsorption process of a single species. The reduction of the determined counter-diffusivity of coronene in desorption process was explained by the cross of diffusion fluxes and build-up of high gradient of coronene in pore.
