2 Surface area determination - physisorption and chemisorption What do we obtain? specific surface area of a substance specific surface area of a part of a substance (i.e. of the metal particles on a support) Why do we need such quantities? comparability of different charges of the same substance comparability of catalyst activity (... not given per gram) Idea: surface area is a measure for the number of catalytic centers (but for sure not the number of active sites no one knows how an active site looks like)

3 Surface area determination - physisorption Weak adsorbate adsorbens interactions first level approximation: Adsorption energy is constant in the first layer and different but nearly constant in the following multilayers We measure the (in principle) whole surface area!

4 Physisorption What do we measure? - isotherms IUPAC isotherm classification Saturation behaviour for high p/p 0 concave convex sharp knee point B

5 How do we measure? Volumetric measurement ideal gas law: pv = nrt

6 1. Dead volume measurement with He V 1 T 1 Problems: V 2 is unknown, T 2 is not well defined: Quantachrome : V 2 T 2 1. V 2 at RT with He 2. Pressure change with and without bath yields volume of cold and warm zone volume in V 2 Cold and warm zone changeover volume should be minimized! Some adsorbens absorb also He!

7 2. Measurement with N 2 V 1 T 1 1. Certain amount of N 2 is dosed in V 1 2. Equilibration with V 2 yields new (lower) p 1 = p 2 3. Step one is repeated until the desired dp 4. the lost amount is now in V 2, i.e. in the cold and warm zone volume and the residual in the calculation is the adsorbed amount of N 2

8 Analysis of the isotherms the BET method Brunauer, Emmett and Teller in the 1930s n a p / p0 1 C 1 p = + 1 p / p n C n C p ( ( 0 )) m m 0 with n a : adsorbed amount y = a + bx Monolayer capacity n = 1 m BET constant C: C = b + a + b a 1 Specific surface area a s = n m a m L a m = nm for N 2 L: Avogadro number

9 Analysis of the isotherms the BET method How to do? Fit with the BET equation in the range of p/p 0 = Sometimes even at lower upper limit

10 n BET equation, BET constant C, Langmuir equation as limit for C=1 a p / p0 1 C 1 p = + ( 1 ( p / p0 ) ) nmc nmc p0 From the original theory: C = E1 E e RT L E 1 is the adsorption energy of the first tlayer and E L the liquefaction energy, with E 1 = E L this transforms into the Langmuir equation

11 Isotherm classification IUPAC isotherm classification Saturation behaviour for high p/p 0 (pore filling) concave convex sharp knee point B Type I: Langmuir, saturation Type II: C > 2, sigmoid (S-shaped) non- or macroporous Type III: C < 2, weak interactions Type IV: C > 2, mesoporous, saturation Type V: C < 2, like III with saturation Type VI: stepwise (layer by layer) adsorption

12 Adsorption and desorption hysteresis H1: narrow distribution of relatively uniform (cylindrical-like) pores -delayed condensation and no network effects, analysis of the desorption branch H2: complex pore structure, network effects are important, t analysis of fthe adsorption branch H3: non-rigid aggregates of plate-like particles or assemblages of slit-shaped pores - no saturation H4: complex materials containing both micropores and mesopores Neimark AV, Sing KSW, Thommes M. Surface Area and Porosity. Handbook of Heterogeneous Catalysis, Wiley; 2008.

13 Adsorption and desorption hysteresis, some effects Oftenatp/p 0 =0.42 for N 2 independent of the adsorbent Neimark AV, Sing KSW, Thommes M. Surface Area and Porosity. Handbook of Heterogeneous Catalysis, Wiley; 2008.

14 BET method example 1 # only typeii and typeiv isotherms the p/p0 range should give a positive linear slope in the linearity i region / 1 n a n m must be fulfilled for 100 < C < 200 this is fulfilled For negative slope or non-linearity the BET method is not applicable!

21 Surface area determination - chemisorption Strong adsorbate adsorbens interactions first level approximation for metal on a support: Adsorption energy on the metal is constant in the first layer and strongly exceeds the adsorption energies on the support or in multilayers We measure (in principle) the metal surface area!

22 How do we measure? Pretreatment, choice of adsorbate Pretreatment is different from physisorption removal of water reduction of the metal (only!) Quantachrome: Flow cell, reduction with H 2 /Ar or CO, evacuation Choice of adsorbate is crucial only adsorption on the metal no irreversibel subsurface absorption no volatile reaction products (carbonyles) no bulk reaction

23 How do we measure? Volumetric measurement ideal gas law: pv = nrt

24 Chemisorption: measurement Two isotherms: 1. Total amount 2. Reversible amount (evacuation after saturation ti and a second isotherm)

25 Chemisorption: analysis Linear extrapolation to p = 0 yields the volume of an adsorbed monolayer v m

26 Chemisorption: analysis Specific metal surface area: A M = vm Ln 1 m a m 100 wt ( m 2 g 1 metal) metal dispersion: v n M D = m m wt Vm L n m a m wt M volume of an adsorbed monolayer Avogadro number chemisorption stoichiometry sample mass surface area occupied by a metal atom metal loading atomic mass of the metal
