A thermally/chemically robust and easily regenerable anilato-based ultramicroporous 3D MOF for CO 2 uptake and separation
2021
The combination of the properly designed novel organic linker, 3,6-N-ditriazoyil-2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone (trz2An), with CoII ions results in a 3D ultramicroporous MOF with high CO2 uptake capacity and separation efficiency, with particular attention to CO2/N2 and CO2/CH4 gas mixtures. This material consists of 1D chains of octahedrally coordinated CoII ions linked through the anilato ligands in the equatorial positions and to the triazole substituents from two neighbouring chains in the two axial positions. This leads to a 3D microporous structure with voids with an affinity for CO2 molecules and channels that enable the selective entrance of CO2 but not of molecules with larger kine…
Three Co(II) Metal-Organic Frameworks with Diverse Architectures for Selective Gas Sorption and Magnetic Studies.
2019
Three Co(II) metal–organic frameworks, namely, {[Co2(L)2(OBA)2(H2O)4]·xG}n (1), {[Co(L)0.5(OBA)]·xG}n (2), and {[Co2(L)2(OBA)2(H2O)]·DMA·xG}n (3) [where L = 2,5-bis(3-pyridyl)-3,4-diaza-2,4-hexadiene, H2OBA = 4,4′-oxybisbenzoic acid, DMF = dimethylformamide, DMA = dimethylacetamide, and G denotes disordered guest molecules], have been synthesized under diverse reaction conditions through self-assembly of a bent dicarboxylate and a linear spacer with a Co(II) ion. While 1 is crystallized at room temperature in DMF to form a 2D layer structure, 2 is formed by the assembly of similar components under solvothermal conditions with a 3D network structure. On the other hand, changing the solvent t…
Microporous Triptycene‐Based Affinity Materials on Quartz Crystal Microbalances for Tracing of Illicit Compounds
2019
Triptycene-based organic molecules of intrinsic microporosity (OMIMs) with extended functionalized π-surfaces are excellent materials for gas sorption and separation. In this study, the affinities of triptycene-based OMIM affinity materials on 195 MHz high-fundamental-frequency quartz crystal microbalances (HFF-QCMs) for hazardous and illicit compounds such as piperonal and (-)-norephedrine were determined. Both new and existing porous triptycene-based affinity materials were investigated, resulting in very high sensitivities and selectivities that could be applied for sensing purposes. Remarkable results were found for safrole - a starting material for illicit compounds such as ecstasy. A …
High-resolution physisorption techniques for the characterization of adsorbents and catalysts
1991
Abstract High-resolution physisorption techniques performed in the continuous volumetric mode have been developed to investigate the surface and pore structure properties of porous solids. Physisorption data on well-defined microporous solids (zeolites and aluminophosphates) provide novel information on the mechanism of micropore filling, the behavior of the adsorbed phase and the pore structure of the adsorbent. The combination of physisorption with high-resolution analytical techniques such as calorimetry and neutron diffraction further expands our knowledge and understanding of physisorption processes. The results are not only important for fundamental research but can be applied in the …
Study of Selective Adsorption of Gases by Calorimetry
2013
This chapter is devoted to the study of coadsorption of gases in nanoporous solids by using the differential calorimetry. In the first part, the thermodynamic principles of adsorption of gases are recalled. Some of them have already presented in chapter one. However a special attention has been paid here to the determination of the adsorption enthalpies and entropies and we focused on the selective adsorption of binary mixtures. Then the specific experimental technique based on the combination of differential calorimetry with manometry and gas phase chromatography or mass spectrometry is shown in details. In the last part, the thermodynamic concepts on coadsorption are illustrated with expe…
Study of the Pore Network of Dealuminated Faujasites by Water Vapor Adsorption
1991
Summary The adsorption and desorption isotherms of water vapor are drawn at 25°C for dealuminated HY zeolites upon framework Si/Al ratio. The isotherms are compared to that of the parent NaY zeolite. The isotherm changes in shape from the type I to the type IV with an hysteresis loop changing from the type H 4 to the type H 2 , as increases the Si/Al ratio. The POLANYI-DUBININ theory is used to determine the micropore volume accessible to water. It decreases with increasing Si/Al ratios, down to zero at a Si/Al ratio of 35. Such a result is accounted by the adsorption on the hydrophilic centers which are the cations (H + ) associated with the structural aluminium ions, each cation being coo…
Adsorption and diffusion of linear and dibranched C6 paraffins in a ZSM-5 zeolite
2002
The adsorption of n-hexane and 2,2-dimethylbutane on a commercial ZSM-5 zeolite is studied under isothermal and isobaric conditions. ZSM-5 exhibits two different behaviours with linear and dibranched alkanes. A substep at 4 molec.uc−1 is observed on the adsorption isotherm of n-hexane at 348 K. A singular adsorption-desorption process is evidenced on the adsorption isobar at 5.5 kPa with 2,2-dimethylbutane at a temperature close to 343 K when the sample is activated at 298 K under vacuum. The diffusivities have been determined by fitting directly the uptake curves with a numerical resolution of second Fick's law based on finite difference method. Microporous diffusion seems to be rate limit…
Comparison of silica-based materials for organophosphorus pesticides sampling and occupational risk assessment.
2020
Abstract A novel air sampler has been designed containing a sorbent based on UVM-7 mesoporous silica doped with Ti. The sorbent has been applied for the determination of organophosphorus pesticides in occupational air, followed by gas chromatography with mass spectrometry detection. Thus, several silica materials with different structures (mesoporous UVM-7 and microporous xerogels) were synthesized, and modified with the addition of Ti and Fe. The structure of these materials was proved by transmission electronic microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray, X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption-desorption and UV–Vis and Raman spectroscopy. The potential of these materials for the retention of pest…
Comparison of the solid-phase extraction efficiency of a bounded and an included cyclodextrin-silica microporous composite for polycyclic aromatic hy…
2016
Solid-phase extraction is one of the most important techniques for sample purification and concentration. A wide variety of solid phases have been used for sample preparation over time. In this work, the efficiency of a new kind of solid-phase extraction adsorbent, which is a microporous material made from modified cyclodextrin bounded to a silica network, is evaluated through an analytical method which combines solid-phase extraction with high-performance liquid chromatography to determine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water samples. Several parameters that affected the analytes recovery, such as the amount of solid phase, the nature and volume of the eluent or the sample volume and …
Anionic Organic Guests Incorporated in Zeolites: Adsorption and Reactivity of a Meisenheimer Complex in Faujasites
2005
Zeolites are suitable microporous hosts for positively charged organic species, but it is believed that they cannot adsorb organic anions. Pure Meisenheimer complex, derived from reduction of 2,4-dinitroaniline with NaBH4, was adsorbed inside faujasite cavities. Evidence for the internal incorporation of this negatively charged reaction intermediate comes from 1) XPS elemental analysis as a function of the depth of penetration into the particle, 2) the remarkable blue shift in lambda(max) of the Meisenheimer complex adsorbed on zeolite (ca. 470 nm) as compared to that in acetonitrile (580 nm) and 3) from the lack of reactivity with size-excluded hydride-acceptor reagents. Evidence is provid…
