Abstract

In the “random spheres model” for porous materials the porous substance is assumed to consist of a large number of randomly overlapping solid microspheres, the void being constituted by the remaining space between the microspheres. For most porous materials this model is more realistic than the usual tubular pore models. The properties of the model are described, and some applications are presented, the most important being the calculation of the lifetime of a porous catalyst which is clogged by deposits.
