S. Fritzsche et al., ABOUT THE INFLUENCE OF LATTICE-VIBRATIONS ON THE DIFFUSION OF METHANEIN A CATION-FREE LTA ZEOLITE, Chemical physics letters, 296(3-4), 1998, pp. 253-258
The influence of lattice vibrations on the diffusion of methane in st
cation-free zeolite of structure Type LTA is examined. It is shown tha
t contrary to earlier published results the self-diffusion coefficient
s obtained with flexible and with rigid lattices are practically the s
ame. This finding is true over a wide range of temperatures and for di
fferent interaction parameters. The reason why earlier papers did not
state this independence of D on the lattice vibrations is explained. (
