ChemInform Abstract

The unexpected chemisorption of nitrogen on ZSM-5, observed at high temp. (450 °C), is attributed to the chemical bonding between partly dissociated N2 molecules and the zeolite surface, whereas complete dissociative adsorption of nitrogen on ZSM-5 is ruled out. The highly activated partial dissociative adsorption, which is completely reversible at higher temp., resembles to some extent the type C (M-N=N-M) nitrogen chemisorption on iron catalysts at lower temperatures.
