The Kinetic Monte Carlo Simulations of the Self-Diffusivity in Zeolites

Article Preview

Abstract:

The diffusion of guest molecules in zeolites is investigated in the framework of a onedimensionallattice-gas model with two non-equivalent sites. The concentration dependenciesof the tracer and center-of-mass diffusion coefficients are calculated for some representative valuesof the lateral interaction between the guest molecules. Using simple ideas about moleculesdiffusion we propose analytical expressions for the diffusion coefficients. We compare the theoreticaldependencies with the numerical data obtained by the kinetic Monte Carlo simulations.A very good coincidence of the data obtained by the two quite independent different methodscorroborates strongly the validity of the proposed approach.
