Rates of adsorption of polystyrene on to charcoal from methyl ethyl ketone solutions are influenced by water present in the solvent causing resting periods. These resting periods disappear when water‐free solvent is used. The type of adsorption isotherm and molecular weight relationship are not influenced by the presence of water. The temperature coefficient for rate of adsorption is small.
