Significance and Use
The test method has two main functions: first, it provides data useful for establishing the pore size distribution of catalyst materials, which in turn may influence their performance; and second, it serves as a laboratory test which may be used to study porosity changes that may occur during the manufacture and evaluation of catalysts.
Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherms of catalysts and catalyst carriers at the boiling point of liquid nitrogen. A static volumetric measuring system is used to obtain sufficient equilibrium adsorption points on each branch of the isotherm to adequately define the adsorption and desorption branches of the isotherm. Thirty points evenly spread over the isotherm is considered to be the minimum number of points that will adequately define the isotherm.
