경북(慶北) 월성산(月城産) Zeolite광석으로 조제(調製)한 $1{sim}0.5,;0,5{sim}0.25,;0.25{sim}0.1$ 및 <0. 1mm의 4종류의 Zeolite 획분(劃分)의 비표면적(比表面積)이 수증기(水蒸氣) 및 EGME흡착법(吸着法)에 의(依)해 측정(測定)되었다. 수증기(水蒸氣) 및 EGME에 의(依)한 Zeolite의 비표면적(比表面積)은 각각 평균(平均) 106 및 $161m^2/g$으로 측정물질(測定物質)에 따라 약간의 차이(差異)가 있었으나 두방법(方法) 공히 입경(粒徑)의 대소(大小)에 따른 비표면적(比表面積)의 차이(差異)는 거의 없었다. $H_2O$ 분자경(分子徑)과 Mordenite공경(孔徑)을 근거(根據)하여 비교검토(比較檢討)한 결과측정(結果測定)된 비표면적(比表面積)은 실제표면적(實際表面積)의 일부분(一部分)으로 추정(推定)되었다. 따라서 Zeolite의 표면적(表面積)을 정확(正確)히 측정(測定)하기 위해서는 새로운 측정법(測定法)의 개발(開發) 필요성(必要性)이 인정(認定)된다.
Natural zeolite rock of which dominent clay minerals were mordenite and clinoptilolite was collected from Wolsung, Kyungpook province. It was pulverized and sieved into four fractions of $1{sim}0.5,;0,5{sim}0.25,;0.25{sim}0.1,$ and<0.1mm. The specific surface areas of its four fractions were determined by $H_2O$ and EGME. The specific surface area of zeolite was slightly affected according to species of measuring material, but was scarcely affected by partical size, nor increased of pulverizing. The surface area of zeolite was calculated from geometric structure of mordenite and it was compared with the specific surface area calculated from maximum numbers of $H_2O$ which could be adsorbed on mordenite. On the basis of that result, the specific area measured from zeolite was estimated to be a part of surface area calculated from it. Accordingly, it was suggested that a new method should be developed for the determination of an exact surface area of zeolite.
