Abstract
Two different types of desorption experiments were necessary for this study. In a first set of experiments, carried out at a constant rate of warming up, the desorption energy is obtained. The second set of experiments were performed at several constant temperatures to calculate the frequency factor and its relationship with temperature. The reasons for some anomalous behaviour have been analyzed. The dependence of the frequency factor on temperature should be taken into account when the Polanyi-Wigner equation is used for desorption processes. Every molecule has to be independently studied as no global tendency is found for the variation of the frequency factor with temperature.
