Abstract

Reaction of water, methanol, and ethanol vapors with a solid phosphomolybdic acid at room temperature is accompanied by formation of bulk hydrates and alcoholates. The reaction involves several stages which are readily detected by the sorption and desorption isotherms. The formation of alcoholates causes “loosening” of the acid lattice, thus favoring much more active initial sorption of alcohols, compared with water, and liquefaction once H3PMo12O40·11.5CH3OH and H3PMo12O40·14.7C2H5OH compositions are attained.
