MODELING WATER SORPTION CAPACITY OF SILICA GEL
Silica gel is a widely used desiccant with a high water sorption capacity, influenced by factors such as specific surface area, pore volume, and pore size. This study develops mathematical models using multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA) to predict the water sorption capacity of silica gel based on experimental data. Independent variables in...
