Application of ion scattering spectroscopy to investigations of the interaction between the active component and carrier in supported catalysts

In this article we will show, however, that the electronic effect is measurable for Cu, Zn, and Na by the ISS technique, and we will use the concept of «effective mass» based upon a binary collision approach to develop a method for the determination of the chemical shift in solid-solid surface interactions in catalyst systems. A series of Cu, Na, and Zn compounds, Al foil, and supported Cu and Zn catalysts have been investigated, and the 4 He + scattering energy from the different atoms in the different compounds or catalysts has been determined. The «mass increments» in these samples are calculated from scattering peak shifts in the ion scattering spectra and the «mass increment» is used as a means to characterize interaction between surface atoms
