Preferred Label : adsorption capacity;
IUPAC definition : For strongly adsorbed solutes of limited solubility, the value of the amount of adsorbed
substance reached in a saturated solution is called the adsorption capacity of the
adsorbent for a specific solute; its value depends also, in general, on the nature
and, in the case of more than two components, on the relative composition of the bulk
liquid.;
