Adsorption

⭐⭐⭐
feminine noun (physical chemistry / surface phenomena / applied kinetics)

Definition

The act of adsorbing and its dynamic outcome; the physical-chemical process by which a fluid accumulates across a limited superficial boundary, forming a fine molecular film. It is the verbal action noun equivalent to the more common term 'adsorption', sometimes preferred in technical Romanian texts to emphasize the operational duration of surface capture.
