ON THE EVALUATION OF B.E.T. CONSTANTS FROM THE B.E.T. ISOTHERM EQUATION

It is shown that the conventional (or unweighed) least squares method must not be used to evaluate the B.E.T. constants, Xm and C, when using a rearranged linear B.E.T. plot recently suggested in the literature. This is illustrated using literature data on water sorption in several foods. In this ca...
