Showing papers on "Mass action law published in 2002"
TL;DR: In this work, an SMA model was developed for protein adsorption equilibrium to dye-ligand affinity adsorbent, Cibacron Blue-modified Sepharose CL-6B (CB-Sepharose) and it was found that the linear model parameters, K and n decreased with the increase of ionic strength, while the nonlinear parameter, sigma, increased with ionsic strength and the dye- ligand concentration.

TL;DR: In this article, two models for the description of ion exchange equilibrium in nonaqueous media are compared: the heterogeneous model (HMAM), based on the mass action law in which ideal behaviour for both the solution and the solid phase and the heterogeneity of the ion exchange sites has been assumed, and the homogeneous model, in which nonideal behavior for both a solution and a solid phase has been taken into account.

TL;DR: In this paper, the linear stability problem for surface mechanisms with free sites and two adsorbed species is investigated under the assumptions of mass action (Langmuir) surface kinetics, fast mass transport to and from the surface, and a conservation condition.
Abstract: The linear stability problem for surface mechanisms with free sites and two adsorbed species is investigated under the assumptions of mass action (Langmuir) surface kinetics, fast mass transport to and from the surface, and a conservation condition. The results also apply to enzyme kinetics for systems with a single enzyme occurring in the free form and two combined forms, and with fast mass transport of the substrates and products. Mechanisms are classified according to their stability and the presence or absence of complex eigenvalues, and specific reactions with numerical values of the rate constants and surface concentrations are given to illustrate the results. Some mechanisms, e.g., proportionate reactions, are shown to be stable for all values of the rate constants and stoichiometric coefficients. The two most common types of mechanisms, namely sequential mechanisms and the simple Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanism (one adsorbate per site), are always stable. The possibility of complex eigenvalues arises for sequential mechanisms (providing a counterexample to a condition for real eigenvalues given previously in the literature). More general Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanisms can be unstable (e.g., those in which one adsorbate occupies two sites). Some results are generalized to mechanisms with three or more adsorbed species, and global stability is investigated using monotone dynamical systems theory.
