The present review discusses the most important aspects to take into consideration to
improve the properties of γ‐Al2O3 as a support for catalytic applications. We show that the …

Reactions of the light actinide ions (Th to Cm) at the mineral− aqueous solution interface
have attracted much attention during recent years. Initially research was mainly driven by the …

Analysis of sorption data is important for characterizing retention of chemicals by soil. In this
paper I review the most common isotherm equations used in soil science. The mathematical …

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are polymers that can be tailored with affinity and
selectivity for a molecule of interest. Offsetting the low cost and ease of preparation of MIPs …

Hydroxyl groups on metal oxide in water are the sites for ion exchange, and the surface
hydroxyl site density on oxides is a measure of the ion-exchange capacity. Here, the …

Soil organic matter (SOM) is known to exert a major control on the mobility and
bioavailability of cationic nutrients. However, the role of SOM in the fate of anionic nutrients …

Here we report results from a quantitative investigation of the types and densities of proton
binding sites on a bacterial surface, Bacillus subtilis, from replicate acid− base titrations on …

Previously, hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate (HSCAS), a phyllosilicate clay of the
smectite class, was shown to tightly bind aflatoxins and prevent aflatoxicosis in animals …

The surface acidity of several activated carbons was evaluated using the Boehm and
potentiometric titration methods. Experimental conditions (particle size, rate of titration) were …

Systematic analysis of surface titration data from the literature has been performed for ten
oxides (anatase, hematite, goethite, rutile, amorphous silica, quartz, magnetite, δ-MnO2 …
