Heats of immersion of zeolites in n-alcohols
The heats of immersion in n-alcohols of zeolites NaY, 5A and ZSM-5 and the kinetics of the immersion process have been determined using a Calvet MS-70 microcalorimeter. The specific heat of immersion decreased non-linearly as a function of chain length of alcohol for NaY and 5A. In contrast, the …
