United States15.1.1 Distribution Manifold, having a volume between 20and 35 cm3,(Vd), known to the nearest 0.05 cm3. This volumeis defined as the volume between the stopcocks or valves andincludes the pressure gauge.5.

15、1.2 Vacuum System, capable of attaining pressures below104torr (1 torr = 133.3 Pa). This will include a vacuum gauge(not shown in Fig. 1). Access to the distribution manifold isthrough the valve V.5.1.3 Constant-Volume Gauge or Mercury Manometer, ca-pable of measurements to the nearest 0.1 torr, in

16、the range from0 to 1000 torr (1 torr = 133.3 Pa).NOTE 1See, for example, the article by Joy5for a description of aconstant-volume manometer.5.1.4 Valve (H), from the helium supply to the distributionmanifold.5.1.5 Valve (N), from the nitrogen supply to the distributionmanifold.5.1.6 The connection b

17、etween the sample tube and the Svalve can be a standard-taper glass joint, a glass-to-glass seal,or a compression fitting.5.1.7 Extra Volume Bulb, (Vx), should be 100 to 150 cm3,known to the nearest 0.05 cm3. Vxincludes the volume of thestopcock bore in the glass apparatus.5.2 Sample Tubes, with vol

18、umes from 5 to 100 cm3depend-ing on the application. Markings should be placed on thesample tubes about 30 to 50 mm below the connectors toindicate the desired liquid nitrogen level.5.3 Heating Mantles or Small Furnaces.5.4 Dewar Flasks.5.5 Laboratory Balance, with 0.1 mg (107kg) sensitivity.5.6 The

19、rmometer or Thermocouple, for measuring the tem-perature of the distribution manifold T1(i)orT2(i) in degreesCelsius.5.6.1 It is preferred that the manifold be thermostated at aparticular temperature, a few degrees above ambient, to obviatethe necessity of recording this temperature at each reading.

20、5.7 Thermometer, for measuring the temperature of theliquid nitrogen bath Ts(i) in kelvins. This will preferably bea nitrogen vapor-pressure thermometer, often referred to in acommercial instrument as a pressure saturation tube, fromwhich P0values may be derived.6. Reagents6.1 Purity of ReagentsReag

21、ent grade chemicals shall beused in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.6Other grades may beused, provided it is fi

22、rst ascertained that the reagent is ofsufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening theaccuracy of the determination.6.2 Helium GasA cylinder of helium gas at least 99.9 %pure.6.3 Liquid Nitrogen, of such purity that P0is not more than20 torr above barometric pressure. A fresh daily s

ProcedureSample Preparation and Degassing7.1 Select a sample tube of the desired size.A5 cm3sampletube is preferred for samples not exceeding about 1 g, tominimize the dead-space. However, a 25 cm3sample tube may

24、be preferred for finely powdered catalysts, to avoid “boiling”when degassing is started.7.2 Fill the sample tube with nitrogen or helium, at atmo-spheric pressure, after removing air by evacuation.This may bedone on the surface area unit, or on a separate piece ofequipment.7.3 Remove the sample tube

25、 from the system, cap, andweigh. Record the mass as W1.7.4 Place the catalyst sample, whose mass is knownapproximately, into the sample tube. Choose the sample size toprovide an estimated total sample surface area of 20 to 100 m2.5Joy, A. S., Vacuum, Vol 3, 1953, p. 254.6Reagent Chemicals, American

If other samplesare to be run, attach them at this time to the other ports.7.6 Open the S valves where there are samples.7.7 It may be

28、necessary to close the V valve systemperiodically to protect the diffusion pump fluid from exposureto pressures above 0.1 torr for periods of more than 30 s. Closethe valve off for 2 min.7.8 Install a heating mantle or furnace around each sampleand raise the temperature to about 300C (573 K).NOTE 2T

29、ake special precautions if the moisture content exceedsapproximately 5 % to avoid “bumping” of powdered catalyst, and to avoidsurface area loss by self-steaming. It is recommended that the heating ratenot exceed 100 K h under these circumstances.7.9 Continue degassing at about 300C (573 K) for amini

30、mum of 3 h, at a pressure not to exceed 103torr.Overnight degassing is permissible.NOTE 3Certain materials will decompose at 300C (for example,alumina hydrates) or will sinter (for example, platinum black). Lowerdegassing temperatures are permissible for such materials; however, thedegassing tempera

31、ture should be specified when reporting the results.7.10 Remove the heating mantles, and allow the samples tocool.7.11 Close the EV valve, if open.7.12 Close the S valve.7.13 It is permissible to exercise the option of preliminarydegassing on an external unit. In such a case, follow theprocedures of

32、 7.4 7.11 and then repeat on the surface areaunit, except that the degassing time in 7.9 should not exceed 1h.7.14 If it is desired to weigh the sample after preliminarydegassing on an external unit, backfill with the same gas usedin 7.2 to above atmospheric pressure. Close the S valve.7.15 Detach t

33、he sample tube from the apparatus, recap withthe stopper used previously, and weigh. Record the mass as W2.7.16 Remove the backfilled gas by evacuation to less than104torr at room temperature.8. ProcedureDead-Space Determination8.1 From this point on, each sample being tested for surfacearea must be

34、 run on an individual basis. Thus each Step 8.2 9.17 must be carried out separately for each tube in test.8.2 The “dead-space” is the void volume of the chargedsample tube, including the S valve, when the tube is immersedin liquid nitrogen to the proper depth (see 5.2).NOTE 4The dead-space may be de

35、termined after the nitrogenadsorption, if more convenient, as long as adequate degassing precedes it.In that case, replace the liquid nitrogen bath after Step 9.14 beforeproceeding with Steps 8.3 8.9.8.3 Place a Dewar flask of liquid nitrogen around the sampleand adjust the liquid level to a fixed p

36、oint on the sample tube.Maintain this level throughout the test.8.4 Zero the pressure gauge.8.5 Admit the helium gas into the manifold to a pressure of600 to 900 torr by carefully opening the H valve. Record thispressure as PH1, and the manifold temperature, TH1.8.6 Open the S valve to admit helium

37、to the sample.8.7 After about 5 min of equilibration, readjust the liquidnitrogen level, and record the pressure as PH2, and manifoldtemperature as TH2.8.8 Repeat 8.5 8.7 for each sample on the manifold.8.9 Open all S valves; then slowly open the V valve toremove the helium gas.8.10 When a pressure

38、less than 0.01 torr has been attained,close the S valve. This operation should take 5 to 10 min.9. ProcedureNitrogen Adsorption9.1 Close the V valve and open the EVvalve if the extra-volume bulb is to be used, when the surface area is known tobe high.9.2 Recheck the zero setting of the pressure gaug

39、e.9.3 Admit nitrogen gas, and record the pressure as P1(1)(torr) and the temperature as T1(1) (degrees Celsius) and readthe temperature of the extra-volume bulb and record it asT1x(1). It is desirable, but not necessary, to choose P1(1) suchthat the first equilibrium adsorption pressure, P2(1), will

40、 beabout 40 torr equivalent to P2(1)/P0(1) of about 0.05. If thesurface area is small, it may be desirable to eliminate use of theextra-volume bulb by closing the EV valve.9.4 Open the S valve to admit nitrogen to the catalyst.9.5 Allow sufficient time for equilibration, readjusting theliquid nitrog

41、en level when necessary. Equilibrium shall beconsidered as attained when the pressure change is no morethan 0.02 torr/min.9.6 Record the equilibrium pressure as P2(1), manifoldtemperature T2(1), and the extra volume bulb temperatureT2x(1).9.7 Record the liquid nitrogen temperature Ts(1) or thenitrog

42、en vapor pressure P0(1).9.8 Close the S valve and close the EV valve; then admitnitrogen gas to increase the pressure by 100 to 200 torr,depending upon surface area. Record the pressure as P1(2), themanifold temperature as T1(2), and the extra-volume bulbtemperature as T1 x(2).9.9 Open the S valve t

43、o admit the new increment of nitrogento the catalyst.9.10 Allow sufficient time for equilibration, readjusting theliquid nitrogen level as necessary. The criterion for equilibriumis defined in 9.5.9.11 Record the equilibrium pressure as P2(2), and recordT2(2) and T2x(2).9.12 Again record Ts(2) or P0

44、(2).9.13 Repeat Steps 9.8 9.12 until there are at least fourpoints in the linear BET range. This will normally be fromP/Po= 0.04 to 0.20 or 0.25. Designate the pressures as P1(i)D3663 03 (2015)3and P2(i), manifold temperature as T(i ), and the extra-volumetemperatures as T1x(i) and T2x(i). (i =3ton,

45、 where n is totalnumber of points.)9.14 Slowly open the V valve, remove the Dewar flask, andallow the sample flask to come to room temperature.9.15 When frost has disappeared from the sample tube, wipeit dry.9.16 Backfill the sample tube with the same gas used in 7.2to about atmospheric pressure.
