摘要
Molecular dynamic simulation is used to study the microstructure of four kinds of ionic liquids(ILs),[Emim]PF6,[Emim][Tf2N],[PC6,6,6,14]PF6 and [PC6,6,6,14][Tf2N] in the capture process of CO2.Radial distribution function(RDF) and spatial distribution function(SDF) are used to analyze the microscopic properties of these systems.The calculated results show that the space distribution of CO2 around ILs determines the capability of ionic liquids for capturing CO2.Based on the analysis of SDF,CO2 and PF6-are overlapped partially around [Emim]+ in [Emim]PF6-CO2 mixture.When the anion is [Tf2N]-,cations are mainly distributed on one side of [Tf2N]-near N atom,and CO2 is concentrated on two sides near the fluoroalkylgroup(?CF3),and there is little overlapped district between cation and CO2.In [PC6,6,6,14]PF6-CO2 mixture,layered structure is found and CO2 is much nearer to PF6-than [PC6,6,6,14]+.Based on the analysis of RDF,in the phosphonium-based ILs,the highest distribution densities of anions and CO2 around cations are about 6 and 3 times as their average ones respectively,while in the imidazolium-based ILs,they are about 3 and 2 respectively,this means that the distributions of CO2 and anions around the imidazolium-based ILs are more evenly distributed than those around the phosphonium-based ILs.
Molecular dynamic simulation is used to study the microstructure of four kinds of ionic liquids (ILs), [Emim]PF6, [Emim][Tf2N], [PC6,5,6,14]PF6 and [PC6,6,6,14][Tf2N] in the capture process of CO2. Radial distribution function (RDF) and spatial distribution function (SDF) are used to analyze the microscopic properties of these systems. The calculated results show that the space distribution of CO2 around ILs determines the capability of ionic liquids for capturing CO2. Based on the analysis of SDF, CO2 and PF6- are overlapped partially around [Emim]+ in [Emim]PF6-CO2 mixture. When the anion is [Tf2N]-, cations are mainly distributed on one side of [Tf2N]- near N atom, and CO2 is concentrated on two sides near the fluoroalkylgroup (-CF3), and there is little overlapped district between cation and CO2. In [PC6,6,6,14]PF6-CO2 mixture, layered structure is found and CO2 is much nearer to PF6- than [PC6,6,6,14]+. Based on the analysis of RDF, in the phosphonium-based ILs, the highest distribution densities of anions and CO2 around cations are about 6 and 3 times as their average ones respectively, while in the imidazolium-based ILs, they are about 3 and 2 respectively, this means that the distributions of CO2 and anions around the imidazolium-based ILs are more evenly distributed than those around the phosphonium-based ILs.
