| Abstract: | Investigations on the extension of the diffuse reflectance spectroscopy by means of the dilution method of KORTÜM show the decisive influence of water sorption on the dilution substances, particularly on their absolute reflectance. Water sorption is investigated on alkali halides (NaCl and LiF) as dilution substances by gravimetric, thermal desorption and reflectance methods. Sorption gravimetry gives data on the quantities of adsorbed substances and the time function of adsorption processes, thermal desorption on chemical binding of adsorbed molecules and reflectance spektroscopy on the molar absorptivity of adsorbed water molecules. |
