Abstract

AbstractMicroporous AlPO4‐5 catalysts exhibit catalytic activity for tritium isotope exchange and other reactions but the activity of the catalyst may vary widely from one batch of catalyst to another although all catalyst samples appear to show pure AlPO4‐5 phase. This catalytic activity appears to correlate with the presence of octahedral aluminium in the catalyst samples as revealed by solid sate 27Al NMR spectroscopy and this is attributed to defect sites in the lattice. The exchange patterns may show high regional specificity. These patterns have some of the features of acid catalysis but are assumed to be modified by the constraints imposed by the micropore geometry.
