THE SEPARATION OF ISOTOPES AND ORTHO-PARA HYDROGEN AND DEUTERIUM BY PREFERENTIAL ADSORPTION AT LOW TEMPERATURE. THE THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF ORTHOHYDROGEN AND PARA DEUTERIUM. Report No. 5. Technical Progress Report, December 1960-December 1961

OSTI ID:4802323
ABS>Work is reported on heats of adsorption of hydrogen and deuterium on gamma -alumina as a function of surface coverage, the effect of surface heterogeneity on isotope separations by preferential adsorption at low temperatures, ortho-para separation factors of hydrogen and deuterium from heterogeneous rates of conversion in the liquid state, heat capacity of solid deuterium at low temperatures, separation factors for the hydrogen isotopes by adsorption at low temperatures, rotational-vibrational zero point energies for the nine hydrogen species adsorbed on a surface, and separation of the nuclear spin species of methane by preferential adsorption.
