  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-008796",
  "term": "Photoadsorption area number",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The number of molecules of a specific substance that photoadsorb on a unit area of a photocatalyst surface under specified conditions of irradiation. This quantity provides a measure of the photocatalyst's capacity to bind adsorbates upon illumination. It is expressed in units of molecules per square meter (molecules m⁻²).",
