Untersuchungen zur Katalyse der Ammoniaksynthese und des Stickstoffisotopenaustausches durch Schichtverbindungen von Graphit mit Eisen,Ruthenium und Osmium

Investigations on the Catalysis of Ammonia Synthesis and Nitrogen Isotope Exchange by Lamellar Compounds of Graphite with Iron, Ruthenium, and Osmium The catalytic activity of transition metal potassium-graphite lamellar compounds for the synthesis of ammonia from the elements and the catalysis of the equilibration by isotope exchange of the isotopic nitrogen molecules are shown to correlate. Connections between the state of metal in the catalyst exist with iron as metal which is shown by Mössbauer spectroscopy and the catalytic activity in relation to the potassium content.
