1、Designation:D456719Standard Test Method forSingle-Point Determination of Specific Surface Area ofCatalysts and Catalyst Carriers Using Nitrogen Adsorptionby Continuous Flow Method1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4567;the number immediately following the designation indicates the
2、 year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the single-point determinationof t
3、he surface area of catalysts and catalyst carriers that exhibitType II or Type IV nitrogen adsorption isotherms using anitrogen-helium flowing gas mixture.This test method isapplicable for the determination of total surface areas from 0.1to 300 m2,where rapid surface area determinations are desired.
4、1.2 Because the single-point method uses an approximationof the BET equation,the multipoint BET method(Test MethodD3663)is preferred to the single-point method.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard
5、 does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to consult andestablish appropriate safety,health,and environmental prac-tices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitationsprior to use.1.5 This int
