386. BRUNAUER, S., AND EMMETT, P. H. Use of van der Waals’ Adsorption Isotherms in Determining the Surface Area of Iron-Synthetic-Ammonia Catalysts. Jour. Am. Chem. Soc., vol. 57, 1935, pp. 1754-1755; Chem. Abs., vol. 29, 1935, p. 7168. The determination of van der Waals’ adsorption isotherms of gases close to their boiling points affords a convenient method of measuring the extent of surface of Fe-synthetic-NH3 catalysts; low-temperature isotherms are given for N2 at –195.8° and –183°, for O2, CO, and A at –183°, for CO2 at –78.5° and for C4H10 at 0°. |
