In this paper, we present a study of the adsorption of multicomponent mixtures with multisite occupancy. The transfer-matrix technique is used to analyze the one-dimensional binary mixtures for interacting systems. A general expression for the characteristic polynomial is derived. Extension of the treatment to a higher dimension is also presented by using the mean-field Bragg-Williams approximation, transfermatrix calculations, and Monte Carlo simulation. Partial and total isotherms are obtained for the dimertrimer mixture where a different order appears.
