3、gamma alumina and related transition aluminas in catalysts and catalystcarriers containing silica and alumina by X-ray powder diffraction, using the diffracted intensity of the peak occurring at about 672 when copper K radiation is employed.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as sta

7、dths.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is for estimating the relative amount of gamma alumina in calcined catalyst or catalyst carrier samples,assuming that the X-ray powder diffraction peak occurring at about 67 2 is attributable to gamma alumina. Gamma alumina isdefined as a transition a

8、lumina formed after heating in the range from 500 to 550C, and may include forms described in theliterature as eta, chi, and gamma aluminas. Delta alumina has a diffraction peak in the same region, but is formed above 850C,a temperature to which most catalysts of this type are not heated. There are

9、other possible components which may cause someinterference, such as alpha-quartz and zeolite Y, as well as aluminum-containing spinels formed at elevated temperatures. If thepresence of interfering material is suspected, the diffraction pattern should be examined in greater detail. More significanti

10、nterference may be caused by the presence of large amounts of heavy metals or rare earths, which exhibit strong X-ray absorptionand scattering. Comparisons between similar materials, therefore, may be more appropriate than those between widely varyingmaterials.5. Apparatus5.1 X-ray Powder Diffractom

Procedure6.1 Calcine the catalyst or catalyst carrier sample for 3 h at 500C.6.2 Grind the sample sufficiently (for example, 200 to 400 mesh) to enable it to be packed into a standard X-ray powderdiffractometer sample holder and mounted on the

18、 diffractometer.6.3 Obtain diffraction patterns for three samples over the approximate range from 52 to 76 2, using the conditions describedin 5.1.6.4 Measure the height of the 67 2 peak above background for the sample and the reference material to give H(sample) andH(reference), respectively.NOTE 2

19、Reference material may be prepared by calcining a high-purity sample of fine-particle boehmite for 3 h at 550C.7. Calculation7.1 The relative X-ray powder diffraction intensity of three samples, compared to a reference standard and expressed as percent,is calculated by use of the following equation:

20、100 Isample!Iref! 5Hsample!Href! 3Wsample!Wref! 3 Gref!Gsample!3100where:H(sample) = defined in 6.4,H(ref) = defined in 6.4,W(sample) /W(ref) = ratio of the peak width at half-height for the sample compared to that for the reference, andG(ref)/G(sample) = ratio of the instrument gain factor used to

21、record the peak for the sample to the gain factor used to recordthe peak for the reference. (Gain factor is often defined as the inverse of the product of the diffractometerscale setting and rate multiplier setting.7.2 The average of the three values calculated in 7.1 can be considered a measure of

22、gamma alumina content in the catalyst orcatalyst carrier if the measured sample peak is attributable to gamma alumina, the reference material is essentially pure gammaalumina, and the sample does not contain large amounts of heavy metals or rare earths. Caution should be observed in comparingresults

23、 for widely varying materials.7.3 A working or secondary reference material can be used as a matter of practical convenience. Should such a secondaryreference material be available, results as calculated in 7.1 relative to the first or primary reference material can be transformedto relate to the wo

24、rking reference material. Determine the relative X-ray powder diffraction intensity of the primary referencematerial relative to the secondary reference material, using an equation corresponding to that shown in 7.1 and expressing the ratioIR1/IR2 in fractional form. Multiply the result relative to

25、the primary reference material (100 I/IR1) by the factor just determinedabove (IR1/IR2) to get the result (100 I/IR2) relative to the secondary reference material. Identify the reference materials whenreporting the results.8. Precision and Bias38.1 PrecisionBased on the results of a multilaboratory,

26、 multisample study and using Practice E691, the within-laboratoryrepeatability was found to be 615 % (2S %) of the measured value, and the between-laboratory reproducibility was found to be624 % (2S %) of the measured value.8.2 BiasNo estimate of the bias of this test method is possible.3 Supporting
