A method to derive explicit binary isotherms following the ideal adsorbed solution (IAS) theory is proposed. The method is applicable to any pair of single‐component isotherms, as long as they fulfill a set of conditions, as described in this report. Examples of some isotherms fulfilling such conditions are: Langmuir, anti‐Langmuir, Brunauer‐Emmett‐Teller (BET), and quadratic. Following the method proposed in this report, three previously unreported explicit binary isotherms, quadratic‐BET, quadratic‐Langmuir, and quadratic‐anti‐Langmuir, while following the IAS framework, could be derived. This work presents the method and the binary isotherms derived through this method.
