Preferred Label : specific surface area;
Detailed label : specific surface area in surface chemistry;
IUPAC definition : When the area of the interface between two phases is proportional to the mass of one
of the phases (e.g. for a solid adsorbent, for an emulsion or for an aerosol ), the
specific surface area (a,s or preferably as) is defined as the surface area divided
by the mass of the relevant phase.;
