Abstract
Nitrogen adsorption on H-ZSM-5 and H-Y zeolites at low temperatures were studied by in situ FT-IR spectroscopy. For each zeolite, two absorption bands were observed at around 2334 and 2352 cm−1 in thev(NN) region and were assigned to thev(NN) mode of dinitrogen species adsorbed on Brønsted and Lewis acid sites of the zeolites, respectively. These results and previous results for H-mordenite suggest that dinitrogen serves as a probe of acid sites and its advantages as probe are discussed.
