Ramón de Izaguirre Porset (1899-1952) y la pervivencia de su obra científica

Abstract

[EN] A biographical profile is presented for Ramón de Izaguirre Porset, author in 1922 with Wolfgang Ostwald of a general theory for the adsorption from solution phenomenon. The biographic data prior to formulation of the theory constitute one more proof for the important role of the Board for Extension of Studies and Scientific Researches (JAE) as an organization promoting Spanish scientific research in the first bol. cien. nat. y tecnología R.I.d.e.a., n.º 54 (2019) u decades of the 20th Century. These data also show that, surprisingly, none of the two authors of the theory had a previous background in the field of adsorption. After presenting a concise overview of the theory, it is shown that the research activity of Ramón de Izaguirre was truncated as he moved to work in a nitrogenated fertilizer factory in La Felguera (Asturias). Later on, he would compatibilize it with teaching and management activities at the University of Oviedo. Finally, the repercussions of the Ostwald-De Izaguirre theory are briefly examined eother as a whole or though a classification of adsorption isotherms and an equation that describes the adsorption by solids of mixtures of miscible liquids. The latter is the result that has the greatest degree of survival, being used still nowadays.

[ES] Se presenta una semblanza biográfica de Ramón de Izaguirre Porset, autor en 1922 con Wolfgang Ostwald de una teoría general aplicable al fenómeno de adsorción en disolución. Los datos biográficos previos a la formulación de la teoría constituyen una prueba más del importante papel de la Junta para Ampliación de Estudios e Investigaciones Científicas (JAE) como organismo promotor de la investigación española en las primeras décadas del siglo XX. Estos datos también muestran que, sorprendentemente, ninguno de los dos autores de la teoría poseía experiencia previa demostrada en el campo de la adsorción. Tras una breve exposición de los contenidos de la teoría, se muestra cómo la actividad investigadora de Ramón de Izaguirre se vio truncada al pasar a trabajar a una fábrica de fertilizantes nitrogenados en La Felguera (Asturias), actividad que después compatibilizaría con labor docente y de gestión en la Universidad de Oviedo. Finalmente, se examinan brevemente las repercusiones de la teoría de Ostwald-De Izaguirre en su conjunto o bien a través de una clasificación de isotermas de adsorción y de una ecuación que describe la adsorción en sólidos de mezclas de líquidos miscibles. Esta última es el resultado de mayor pervivencia, utilizado aún hoy en día.
