FTIR spectroscopy is used for the investigation of hydrogen bonding of the Bronsted hydroxyls in H-ZSM-5 zeolite with a number of weak bases (Ar, H2,02, N2, CH4, C2H6, CsHs, CO, C2H4). The following correlation for the increase in intensity of the hydroxyl band, due to its shift resulting from perturbation, is observed: M I A 0 = 0.018Auo~. Applying this correlation to the HF-LF pair in the infrared spectra of H-Y, H-EMT, and H-EM0 zeolites, it is shown that the distribution of Bronsted hydroxyls between super and @cages is approximately 1: 1 whereas in SAPO-37 samples this ratio is close to 3: 1. This is in agreement with results for the deconvolution of the hydroxyl region of the lH MAS N M R spectra. The estimated values of the extinction coefficients for the HF and LF band in H-Y zeolite (Si/Al = 2.7) are 3.2 and 8.5 cmpmol-l, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
