  • Patent number: 12442745
    Abstract: A method for measuring activation energy of a catalyst is disclosed, which includes obtaining a resonant frequency change-time curve using an integrated self-heating resonant cantilever (100), converting the resonant frequency change-time curve into a resonant frequency change-temperature curve, converting the resonant frequency change-temperature curve into a coverage-temperature curve, obtaining a coverage change rate-temperature curve by performing first-order differentiation on the coverage-temperature curve, obtaining relevant parameters corresponding to local minimum values from the coverage change rate-temperature curve, and substituting the relevant parameters into calculation formulas to obtain a desorption rate constant of the catalyst and a desorption activation energy of the catalyst. It can be seen that the present disclosure simply requires programmed heating in terms of operating on the samples, which is fast and convenient.
