A consecutive model of surface reaction, consisting of two steps (desorption and diffusion) was applied. It was concluded that diffusion modifies the temperature programmed desorption spectra, although the single peak curves appear. The differential method for calculation of kinetic parameters based on the TM shift give values close to predicted ones only in the cases when particular steps are rate limiting. Generally, the desorption process have to be considered as a complex reaction, with the overall kinetic parameters. As a consequence of diffusion influence, the overall kinetic parameters are smaller than those for desorption step was obtained.
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.
