Comparative study of methane adsorption on graphite

To study methane adsorption on graphite in a wide range of coverages and temperatures, we compare experimental results with Monte Carlo simulations (MCSs) of the grand canonical ensemble (GCE) and mean-field approximation (MFA) of the lattice gas model (LGM). MCSs were performed by employing two mod...

520 |a To study methane adsorption on graphite in a wide range of coverages and temperatures, we compare experimental results with Monte Carlo simulations (MCSs) of the grand canonical ensemble (GCE) and mean-field approximation (MFA) of the lattice gas model (LGM). MCSs were performed by employing two models for the substrate description; we utilized Steele's 10-4-3 analytical potential, and as a second approach, we represented the graphite surface as composed of several graphene layers (at the atomic level). We obtained adsorption isotherms and density profiles that confirm a layer-by-layer mechanism at low temperatures; the later results in the analytical model having a denser condensed phase than the atomistic one. LGM calculations show a close-packed lattice configuration and also allow us to describe the adsorption mechanism changes with temperature. The isosteric heat of adsorption that was found was approximately 13 kJ/mol. We can also conclude that, in spite of the greater computational cost, the atomistic model could be employed for surfaces that are not necessarily homogeneous and beyond the low-pressure range that are not covered by the simple, fast description given by the analytical model
