Experimental equilibrium isotherms, Henry`s law constants, and heats of sorption are reported for n-hexane, benzene, toluene, p-xylene, mesitylene, naphthalene, trimethylbenzene (TMP), and hexamethylbenzene (HMB) in La-exchanged zeolite Y (Si/Al = 1.8). Henry`s law constants and energies of adsorption are substantially smaller than those for NaX zeolite, reflecting the absence of accessible cations in LaY. These data provide a basis for the estimation of adsorbed phase concentrations of the relevant hydrocarbons on REY cracking catalysts under reaction conditions.
