Abstract

Adsorption of H2 over Cu-SSZ-13 zeolite was studied using as a model a finite cluster. A benchmark of DFT functionals including pure, hybrid, meta-GGA and range-separated functionals was performed. Computational results for geometry and adsorption energies were compared with experiment. Electronic density was studied to characterize covalent, dispersive and electrostatic interactions. DLPNO-CCSD(T) adsorption energy was used for energy decomposition analysis. Results show good agreement with experiment and provide insights into local effects dominating adsorption energy.
