ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Ammonia with RF Discharge. Adsorption of Products on Zeolite

The adsorption of nitrogen-hydrogen molecules formed in the RF discharge on zeolite was studied. The ammonia molecules adsorbed on zeolite as ammonium ions were detected by IR spectroscopy and TPD. The present results obtained show that the ammonia synthesis is facilitated by the surface reactions of the NHx (x=1,2) radicals adsorbed on zeolite with hydrogen atoms.
