Diffusion on a silicalite lattice model

A lattice model is proposed for describing the diffusion of small molecules in silicalite, as a special example of zeolite. The lattice structure matches the interlacing of the silicalite channels and the molecules hop randomly from site to site according to simple rules. The diffusion of a single molecule is treated exactly. The ability of the model to meet more complicated situations is briefly discussed.SCOPUS: ar.j
