Modelling the strength of mineral–organic binding: organic molecules on the α-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>(0001) surface
Aneesa Ahmad, Natalia Martsinovich
Abstract
(0001) surface more strongly than water; thus they are likely to be adsorbed on this mineral surface under ambient conditions and to provide stability of adsorbed OC.
