Abstract

The magnetic field effects on NO adsorption on iron oxides were observed at 303 K. Ferrimagnetic magnetite and maghemite showed magnetic field induced adsorption (magnetoadsorption); i.e., NO adsorption was promoted with an increase in external magnetic field (1-7.6 kG). Hematite (parasitic ferromagnetism) also showed magnetoadsorptivity. Antiferromagnetic iron oxyhydroxides ({alpha}-, {beta}-, and {gamma}-FeOOH) showed magnetic field induced desorption (magnetodesorption). On the other hand, an antiferromagnetic NiO and a ferrimagnetic {delta}-FeOOH exhibited magnetoadsorptivity and magnetodesorptivity, respectively. The magnetoadsorptivity of magnetites depended on the preheating conditions and that of {delta}-FeOOH was independent of its magnetism susceptibility. The results suggest that surface sites and porosity, i.e., adsorption state of NO, rather than solid magnetism would play an important role in the magnetic interactions between solid surfaces and NO molecules under a magnetic field.
