Abstract
Physical adsorption (physisorption) measurements are widely used for the investigation of the texture of porous materials. The interpretation of the adsorption data is not always straightforward, however, and it is now evident that the computation of surface area and pore size distribution is justified only if certain conditions are fulfilled (1).
