BET surface area Banana peels

01 January 1970 1 10K Report

May I please get advise on the best method used in determining the BET surface area of banana peels. I tried using carbon method without any luck. The BET fit is poor and surface are is very low. Please advice. On going about this.

How about you show the results you obtained? Especially how were the peels treated. You may be able to get more responses this way.
