Carbon Dioxide Adsorption on MOF-199 Metal-Organic Framework at High Pressure

摘要

MOFs have considered as promising materials for CO2 adsorption due to their excellent chemical stability, large pore volume, and high surface area. In this study, MOF-199 has been synthesized using the solvent-thermal method with focusing on the significant parameters that affecting the structure of the MOF-199 (solvent, synthesis time, and temperature). Produced MOF-199 samples were characterized by electron scan microscope, X-ray diffraction, and microporosimetric analysis. High crystallinity degree and high surface area were found at 1:1 of the H20: C2H50H (within the solvents range from 1:1 to 1:2 ratios), whereas the changing of the synthesis duration from 18 to 48 h, and synthesis temperatures from 40 to 140 °C have revealed that the best synthesis conditions are 100 °C for 48 h. The appropriate activation condition has been determined to be 60 °C for 16 h. For CO2 adsorption isotherms on MOF-199 were at a temperature (36, 40, 60, and 70) 0C and pressure range (0-5) bar using a volumetric technique. Temkin, Freundlic and Langmuir isotherm models have been used to analyze the equilibrium data. This research presents the effect of significant parameters on the synthesis of MOF-199 to understand their influence on the formation of MOF structures and the CO2 adsorption capacities.
