Loading and Preparing Data
Load Adsorption Isotherm Data:
Ensure you have your experimental adsorption isotherm data ready. This typically includes relative pressure (P/P₀) and the corresponding amount of gas adsorbed (usually in cm³/g or another relevant unit).
# Example data loading (replace with your actual data loading code)
data = pd.read_csv("path_to_your_data.csv")
# Ensure your data columns are appropriately named, e.g., 'P/P0' and 'Volume_adsorbed'
BJH Calculation Methods
Implement BJH Methods:
BJH analysis involves several methods (Standard, Faas, Kruk-Jaroniec-Sayari). Implement functions or scripts for each method based on their respective equations and corrections.
Define functions to calculate Kelvin radii, film thickness, pore volumes, and surface areas as per the BJH method you are implementing (Standard, Faas, or Kruk-Jaroniec-Sayari).
def kelvin_radius(APF, P_over_P0):
# Calculate Kelvin radius using the Kelvin equation
return -APF / np.log(P_over_P0)
def thickness_Harkins_Jura(P_over_P0):
# Calculate thickness using Harkins and Jura thickness equation
return np.sqrt(13.99 / (0.034 - np.log10(P_over_P0)))
# Define functions for Standard, Faas, and Kruk-Jaroniec-Sayari methods similarly
Performing BJH Analysis
Iterate Over Isotherm Data:
Use a loop or apply functions to iterate over each data point in your isotherm dataset. Perform calculations to derive pore volumes and areas based on the chosen BJH method.
# Example loop for Standard method
for index, row in data.iterrows():
P_over_P0 = row['P/P0']
APF = calculate_APF(...) # Calculate Adsorbate Property Factor
Rc = kelvin_radius(APF, P_over_P0)
Tw = thickness_Harkins_Jura(P_over_P0)
# Calculate pore volume and area using formulas provided
Vp = calculate_pore_volume(...)
Ap = calculate_pore_area(...)
# Store or append results to a DataFrame or output format of your choice
Visualizing Results
Visualize Pore Size Distributions:
Use plotting libraries such as matplotlib
or seaborn
to visualize the pore size distributions derived from your BJH analysis. Plot cumulative pore volume or area distributions within specified pore size limits.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# Example plotting (customize based on your specific data and requirements)
plt.figure(figsize=(8, 6))
plt.plot(pore_sizes, cumulative_volume, label='Cumulative Pore Volume')
plt.xlabel('Pore Size (Å)')
plt.ylabel('Cumulative Volume (cm³/g)')
plt.title('BJH Pore Volume Distribution')
plt.legend()
plt.grid(True)
plt.show()
