Abstract

The paper presents evaluation of energy distribution of n-octane and pore-size distribution functions on the alumina oxide surface (e.g. total heterogeneity) of on the basis one experimental run. the Q-TG mass loss and derivative Q-DTG mass loss curves of n-octane thermodesorption from the alumina oxide sample were made using a hungarian derivatograph with an analyser equipped with an automatic ultraslow procedure and a special crucible of maintaining the quasi-isothermal heating procedure to increase the resolution of thermal analysis. a new theoretical and experimental procedure was developed for evaluation of distribution functions of liquid preadsorbed on the mesoporous surface from special thermogravimetry. An example of the approach to quantitative description of the energetic and structural heterogeneities of alumina oxide surface is given.
