Abstract

In a recent paper, Kopelevich and Chang propose a method to estimate the effect of lattice vibrations as a driving force for sorbate diffusion in zeolites – a class of microporous crystalline aluminosilicates. With the provisos given in this comment, the results are important since, even if in some cases the choice of a rigid crystal does not alter dramatically the sorbate motion, the inclusion of lattice vibrations (resulting from LD, or, even better from MD simulations) is essential to provide in general a correct representation of the sorbate dynamics.
