Abstract: The thermodynamics of gas adsorption by carbon nanotubes is constructed in this work. Expressions have been obtained that allow calculations to be carried out taking into account the action of external factors, take into account various types of interaction during adsorption, and therefore allow analyzing the processes of both physical and chemical adsorption and determining its thermodynamic parameters. Theoretical models have been tested using the example of physical hydrogen adsorption.
