β¦ Synopsis
The application of neutron scattering to the measurement of intracrystalline diffusivities is reviewed. Experiments on H2, HD, and CH4 in A zeolites have shown that the diffusion process is well approximated by jump models. For the smallest molecules (H2 and HD and NaA), the jumps are isotropically distributed and the jump lengths depend on the molecular mass. For methane in NaA and CaNaA, the jumps are oriented by the framework of the zeolite. The diffusion coefficients show the influence of the molecule size with respect to the window aperture of cavities.

Results of the first pulsed field gradient (PFG) NMR studies of hydrogen diffusion in zeolites are presented and compared with corresponding measurements by quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS). The results of the two techniques were in satisfactory agreement. Similarly as with other probe molecul
The calculation of integral scattering cross sections and the comparison of the calculnted and measured values for the H-H2 system are made. The disagreement found leads to the conclusion that impravement of the short-range part of the known H-Hz semi-empirical potential energy surface is necessary.
