By combining experimental adsorption isotherms, microcalorimetric data, infrared spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations the adsorption behaviour of the CPO-27/MOF-74 series (Ni, Co, Mg, Cu, and Zn) in the desulfurization of fuels is evaluated. The results show a clear influence of the metal ion on the adsorption capacity and affinity for S-...
We developed a facile route for synthesizing Cu-BDC frameworks using metallic copper as a metal ion source. A thin film of copper was vacuum deposited onto a quartz crystal microresonator (QCM) and converted to Cu-BDC frameworks via a solvothermal reaction. The initially superhydrophilic Cu-BDC surface became superhydrophobic upon being treated wit...
A novel dual amino-functionalized ionic liquid, 1, 3-di (2'-aminoethyl)-2-methylimidazolium bromide (DAIL), was synthesized and investigated as a potential absorbent for CO2 capture. CO2 absorption behavior on pressure, temperature and concentrations of DAIL in aqueous solution were studied, and the absorption mechanism was investigated by spectros...
A hexyl acrylate monolith was prepared via photopolymerization into a cyclic olefin copolymer micro-device for reversed-phase electrochromatography purposes. This work deals with the influence of the irradiation conditions (irradiation time and light intensity) used during synthesis on the electrochromatographic performances of the monolithic colum...
