B TOTAL is the total concentration of base sites calculated based on CO2-TPD.
B W, BM, and BS represent the concentration of weak, medium, and strong base site, respectively, which are calculated according to CO2-TPD and the deconvoluted TPD profiles in the temperature range 50–550 °C.
A TOTAL is the total concentration of acid sites calculated based on NH3-TPD.
A W, AM, and AS denote the concentration of weak, medium, and strong acid site, respectively, which are calculated according to NH3-TPD and the deconvoluted TPD profiles in the temperature range 50–550 °C.
