In this work, we use molecular simulations to study the loading dependence of the self- and collective diffusion coefficients of methane in various zeolite structures. To arrive at a microscopic interpretation of the loading dependence, we interpret the diffusion behavior in terms of hopping rates over a free-energy barrier. These free-energy barriers are computed directly from a molecular simulation. We show that these free-energy profiles are a convenient starting point to explain a particular loading dependence of the diffusion coefficient. On the basis of these observations, we present a classification of zeolite structures for the diffusion of methane as a function of loading: three-dimensional cagelike structures, one-dimensional channels, and intersecting channels. Structures in each of these classes have their loading dependence of the free-energy profiles in common. An important conclusion of this work is that diffusion in nanoporous materials can never be described by one single effect so that we need to distinguish different loading regimes to describe the diffusion over the entire loading range.
