Abstract
Some fundamental concepts about the features of a solid material surface and the adsorption at the gas-solid interface are illustrated. The basic tools dealing with the thermodynamics aspects of adsorption processes are also discussed. The stepwise adsorption microcalorimetry technique, which is a tool of greatest quantitative merit in surface chemistry studies, is described in detail through a selection of gas-solid interface systems, taken from different materials science fields. Criteria for discriminating physical and chemical adsorption are given, based on the nature of the forces involved in the process and the heat of adsorption values. The molecular interpretation of the volumetric-calorimetric data, favored by the joint use of adsorption microcalorimetry, spectroscopic and/or ab initio modeling techniques, is also stressed by illustrating a number of examples dealing with either physical or associative/dissociative chemical adsorption.

Acknowledgments
Prof. Bice Fubini (University of Torino) teachings in the early stage of my work in adsorption microcalorimetry are greatly acknowledged. Further, I would like to acknowledge the contribution of Dr Claudia Busco (zeolites work, University Piemonte Orientale “A. Avogadro”) and Dr Valentina Aina (Ca-modified silica work, University of Torino) in collecting the volumetric-calorimetric data published in the quoted references and employed to describe the use of adsorption microcalorimetry in surface chemistry studies. Without their enthusiasm and helpful contribution much of this work would not have been carried out. Mr Raffaele Disa (Disa Raffaele e F.lli s.a.s - Milano, I) is also greatly acknowledged for the endless, patient help in building up and maintaining the high-vacuum volumetric line.
