Abstract

Cartridge service life is not appreciably affected at relative humidities below 50%. However, performance is severely compromised when the humidity exceeds 65%. Experimental values are compared from those calculated from the adsorption isotherm, Mecklenburg and modified Wheeler equations. Calculations indicate that temperature does not play a significant role in service life predictions.
