Abstract In this paper we consider a one-dimensional free boundary problem describing adsorption phenomena in a porous media. This problem was already proposed and we established a local existence in time and a uniqueness result in [1] , [4] . Here, through the discussion for the dynamics of the free boundary in wetting and drying processes we suppose a specific form of the growth rate condition for the free boundary. By using this form in our problem we can obtain the global existence of a solution in time and convergence of the free boundary as t → ∞ .
