In continuation of earlier work. an atomistic derivation is given of Lifshitz' formula for the non-retarded Van der Waals interaction between two semi-infinite dieIectric media. In the derivation an atom is supposed to consist of a number of isotropic harmonic oscillators.

The Van Der Waals equation of state has been modified in order to improve its accuracy. The introduction of a temperature dependence of the attraction term allows reproducing accurately purecompound vapour pressures. The modification of the mixing rules, with the infinite-pressure excess-freeenergy

A modified two-dimensional van der Waals equation model was proposed for the prediction of multicomponent gas-solid adsorption isotherms from corresponding single-component adsorption equilibrium data. The model was used to predict adsorption isotherms of CO-CO2 mixtures and CO2-N2 mixtures on Cu(I)
