1、Designation: D 3942 03 (Reapproved 2008)Standard Test Method forDetermination of the Unit Cell Dimension of a Faujasite-Type Zeolite1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 3942; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of

2、revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the unitcell dimension of zeolites having the fauj

3、asite crystal structure,including synthetic Y and X zeolites, their modifications suchas the various cation exchange forms, and the dealuminized,decationated, and ultra stable forms of Y. These zeolites havecubic symmetry with a unit cell parameter usually within thelimits of 24.2 and 25.0 (2.42 and

4、 2.50 nm).1.2 The samples include zeolite preparation in the variousforms, and catalysts and adsorbents containing these zeolites.The zeolite may be present in amounts as low as 5 %, such asin a cracking catalyst.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associ

5、ated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

6、termine the Precision of a Test Method3. Summary of Test Method3.1 A sample of the zeolite Y or X, or catalyst containingzeolite is mixed with powdered silicon. The zeolite unit celldimension is calculated from the X-ray diffraction pattern ofthe mixture, using the silicon reflections as a reference

7、.4. Significance and Use4.1 Zeolites Y and X, particularly for catalyst and adsorbentapplications, are a major article of manufacture and commerce.Catalysts and adsorbents comprising these zeolites in variousforms plus binder and other components have likewise becomeimportant. Y-based catalysts are

8、used for fluid catalytic crack-ing (FCC) and hydrocracking of petroleum, while X-basedadsorbents are used for desiccation, sulfur compound removal,and air separation.4.2 The unit cell dimension of a freshly synthesizedfaujasite-type zeolite is a sensitive measure of compositionwhich, among other use

9、s, distinguishes between the twosynthetic faujasite-type zeolites, X and Y. The presence of amatrix in a Y-containing catalyst precludes determination of thezeolite framework composition by direct elemental analysis.4.3 Users of the test method should be aware that thecorrelation between framework c

10、omposition and unit celldimension is specific to a given cation form of the zeolite.Steam or thermal treatments, for example, may alter bothcomposition and cation form. The user must therefore deter-mine the correlation that pertains to his zeolite containingsamples.3In addition, one may use the tes

11、t method solely todetermine the unit cell dimension, in which case no correlationis needed.4.4 Other crystalline components may be present in thesample whose diffraction pattern may cause interference withthe selected faujasite-structure diffraction peaks. If there isreason to suspect the presence o

12、f such components, then a fulldiffractometer scan should be obtained and analyzed to selectfaujasite-structure peaks free of interference.5. Apparatus5.1 X-Ray Diffractometer, able to scan at 0.25 2u/min. 2uvalues in the following discussions were based on dataobtained with a copper tube, although o

13、ther tubes such asmolybdenum can be used.NOTE 1A step-scanning accessory, to scan at a rate of 0.25 or less2u/min, will increase the accuracy of the determination and will facilitatemeasurement in samples of low zeolite content.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D32 onCata

Reagents and Materials6.1 Silicon powder, finely ground or ball-milled

18、 to a particlediameter less than 5 m as determined by microscope. NISToffers a Standard Reference Material (silicon) as an X-rayinternal standard (SMR 640) suitable for powder diffractionmeasurements.7. Procedure7.1 Place about 1.5 g of powdered zeolite sample in thedrying oven at 110C for 1 h.NOTE

19、2The drying step eliminates excess water from the sample priorto equilibration at constant-humidity hydration. Most catalyst samples,when received, will not contain excess water. Some sensitive samples mayrequire a lower activation temperature.7.2 Blend1gofpowdered zeolite sample with about 0.05 gof

20、 silicon in a mortar and grind until intimately mixed. Place athin bed of the mixed sample in the hydrator for at least 16 h.Some samples may require a longer equilibration time.7.3 Pack the hydrated sample in the diffractometer mount.7.4 Determine the X-ray diffraction pattern across the rangefrom

21、50 to 60 2u.NOTE 3Smaller slits are desirable for better peak resolution.NOTE 4In some catalyst samples, the zeolite reflections at about 53.4and 57.8 2u may be of insufficient intensity for accurate measurement.When this occurs, the diffraction pattern should be determined in theinterval 20 to 32 2

22、u.CuKa consists of the composite of Cu Ka1and CuKa2. The wavelength for Cu Ka is a weighted average of those of the twocomponents and is appropriate for use only when the components overlapso completely as to show no evidence of existence of more than onediffraction peak. In the frequent case where

23、the resolution is too poor to becertain that the Cu Ka1value should be used but where peak distortion isevident, the value of peak location is taken as the midpoint at one-quarterpeak height, measured from the base up, and the wavelength for Cu Ka isused.NOTE 5If the instrument software has the abil

24、ity to remove the CuKa2contribution, it should be used when employing the low anglereflections (in the 20 to 32 range).7.5 Measure the angle of the zeolite reflections at about53.4 and 57.8 2u and that of the 56.1 silicon reflection to atleast two decimal places. For noncomputerized systems, if both

25、the two Cu Ka1and Cu Ka2reflections are clearly apparent,measure the angle of reflection peak (Cu Ka1) as the midpointat34 peak height.NOTE 6When low intensity prevents use of these high-angle reflec-tions, as for example with equilibrium catalysts containing rare earthelements, measure the strong z

26、eolite reflections near 23.5, 26.9, and31.2 and the silicon reflection at 28.5 2u (Cu Ka).8. Calculation8.1 Correct the measured reflection angles for the zeolite byadding to each the quantity (calculated minus measured angleof the silicon reflection). When the silicon reflection of Cu Ka1radiation

27、is measured, the calculated angle is 56.123 2u; withCu Ka, the calculated angle is 56.173 2u.NOTE 7The corresponding calculated angles when lower angle re-flections must be used are 28.443 2u (Cu Ka1) and 28.467 2u (Cu Ka).8.2 Convert the corrected angles of reflection to d-spacingvalues using the e

28、quation:dhkl5l2 sin u(1)where:dhkl= distance between reflecting planes having the Millerindices hkl, (nm 3 10), andl = wavelength of X-ray radiation which is 1.54178 (0.154178 nm) for Cu Ka and 1.54060 (0.154060nm) for Cu Ka1. Note that the angle of reflectionmeasured from the X-ray diffraction patt

29、ern is 2u,while the angle used in this calculation is only u.48.3 Calculate the unit cell dimension, a, of the zeolite usingthe equation:a 5 $dhkl!2h21 k21 l2!%1/2(2)where the sum (h2+k2+12) of the respective zeolitereflections has the following values:5Reflection (h2+k2+12)57.8 2u 24353.4 21131.2 7

When an interference occurs, other reflections should be used in thecalculation.8.4 Average the values of a calculated from more than onerefl
