The results show that JUC-Z1 with Linde type A （LTA） and polycubane （zeolite code ACO） net topologies can adsorb up to 20.32, 18.57 mmol/g of CH4 and 19.04, 17.89 mmol/g of H2 at 298 K and 10 MPa, respectively. For the adsorption of binary mixture, the selectivity of CH4 over H2 in LTA-JUC-Zl decrease gradually with the increase of the pressure or the CH4 mole fraction of the mixture. As to ACO-JUC-Z1, the selectivity first increases at low pressure or CH4 mole fraction, and then begins to decrease with the further increase of the corresponding amount. Anyhow, the two materials both exhibit excellent adsorption and separation capacities of CH4/H2.展开更多

The design and synthesis of new porous materials capable of selectively adsorbing dyes are critical to the environment and human health. Here, a unique cluster-based cationic metal-organic framework, named{[Zn8（BTA）6（L）5Cl2]·（NO3）3}·5 DMF（NUM-4） was synthesized, which displays one-dimensional（1 D）open channels along a axis in its 3 D supramolecular stacking structure. Benefiting from the nature of cationic framework and high surface area/pore volume, NUM-4 shows rapid and selective adsorption of anionic dyes（MO, AO, CR and MB） based on the charge-exclusive effect. Besides, the adsorbed dyes can be easily released in NH4Cl saturated solution of ethanol.展开更多

文摘The adsorption and separation of CH4/H2 in two covalently-linked organic-inorganic hybrid frame- works polyoctaphenylsilsesquioxane （JUC-Z1） were computationally studied using the Grand Canon- ical Monte Carlo （GCMC） simulations. The results show that JUC-Z1 with Linde type A （LTA） and polycubane （zeolite code ACO） net topologies can adsorb up to 20.32, 18.57 mmol/g of CH4 and 19.04, 17.89 mmol/g of H2 at 298 K and 10 MPa, respectively. For the adsorption of binary mixture, the selectivity of CH4 over H2 in LTA-JUC-Zl decrease gradually with the increase of the pressure or the CH4 mole fraction of the mixture. As to ACO-JUC-Z1, the selectivity first increases at low pressure or CH4 mole fraction, and then begins to decrease with the further increase of the corresponding amount. Anyhow, the two materials both exhibit excellent adsorption and separation capacities of CH4/H2.

文摘开发高吸附量和选择性的高效吸附剂,用于天然气中C_(2)H_(6)和C_(3)H_(8)的分离和回收,是一项重要且具有挑战性的任务。在本研究中,我们证明高表面极性和合适的孔径直径是协同增强分离性能的两个关键因素,以金属-有机框架(MOF)-303和Matériaux de l'Institut Lavoisier(MIL)-160为例,它们都具有高杂原子密度和所需孔径大小(5~7Å)的一维开放通道。值得注意的是,MOF-303对C_(3)H_(8)的吸附量在298 K和5 kPa时达到了3.38 mmol·g^(−1),与所有已报道的MOFs相比,C_(3)H_(8)/CH4(5:85,v/v)的理想吸附溶液理论(IAST)选择性达到了创纪录的5114。此外,MOF-303还显示出高C_(2)H_(6)吸附量(在10 kPa时)和C_(2)H_(6)/CH4(10:85,v/v)选择性,分别达到1.59 mmol·g^(−1)和26。由于其一维通道内较大的孔径直径和较低的杂原子密度,与MOF-303相比,MIL-160的吸附量和选择性显然更低,尽管这些值超过了大多数报道的MOFs。密度泛函理论(DFT)计算验证了高表面极性和合适的孔径直径协同增强了框架对C_(3)H_(8)和C_(2)H_(6)的亲和力,导致了对C_(3)H_(8)和C_(2)H_(6)的高负载能力和选择性。两种MOFs都具有显著的湿度稳定性,在暴露于95%相对湿度(RH)一个月后没有结构变化。此外,通过一锅反应可以轻松地扩大合成这两种化合物,以获得高结晶度的约5 g样品。最后,通过三元突破实验、再生测试和循环评估,展示了MOF-303和MIL-160作为高级吸附剂,用于高效分离C_(3)H_(8)/C_(2)H_(6)/CH4的巨大潜力。优异的分离性能、高稳定性、低成本和良好的可扩展性,使得这两种MOFs成为天然气净化及C_(2)H_(6)和C_(3)H_(8)回收的有前途的吸附剂。

文摘Controlling interpenetration and flexibility behaviors is intriguing and fundamental for porous coordination polymers.We report exceptional interpenetration behaviors involving controllable partial order–disorder structural transformations.A new bis-benzotriazolate ligand(NaH2sbbta)with a twisted and anionic backbone was designed and synthesized.The solvothermal reaction of ZnCl_(2) and NaH_(2)sbbta yielded(Et_(2)NH_(2))_(3)[Zn_(5)Cl_(4)(sbbta)_(3)]·6DEF(2)possessing two-fold interpenetrated anionic pcu networks with symmetry,shape,and charge different from the known analogues.More interestingly,powder and single-crystal X-ray diffractions showed that 2 can undergo solvent-induced structural transformation to form a noninterpenetrated anionic pcu network with larger pores(1).Consequently,1/2 can selectively adsorb/exchange cationic dyes fromneutral and anionic dyes with tunable size selectivity.However,since the transformations are reversible without obvious change of crystal sizes,the network that disappeared in X-ray crystallography should be mainly disordered rather than decomposed.Further,the structural transformations can be suppressed by thermal decomposition/removal of Et_(2)NH_(2)^(+)/Et_(2)NH.Computational simulations indicate that the ordered and disordered structures are stabilized by relatively large and small solvent molecules,respectively.

文摘One-step harvest of high-purity methane(CH_(4))from ternary propane/ethane/methane(C_(3)H_(8)/C_(2)H_(6)/CH_(4))mixtures remains a desirable yet challenging goal for natural gas purification.However,adsorbents either suffer from high capacity and selectivity,or are caught in a dilemma of scalable synthesis.Herein,we demonstrate a scalable pillar layered metal-organic framework Ni-MOF for highly efficient one-step CH_(4)purification.Ni-MOF exhibits high C_(2)H_(6)and C_(3)H_(8)uptakes of 83.3 and 86.1 cm^(3)/g at 298 K and 100 kPa and remarkable C_(2)H_(6)/CH_(4)(50/50,volume ratio,21.5)and C_(3)H_(8)/CH_(4)(50/50,volume ratio,212.0)selectivities.Notably,high C_(2)H_(6)(42.2 cm^(3)/g at 10 kPa)and C_(3)H_(8)(64.7 cm^(3)/g at 5 kPa)capacities in the low-pressure region at 298 K were realized on Ni-MOF,suggesting the strong affinities of Ni-MOF towards C_(2)H_(6)and C_(3)H_(8).Furthermore,the dynamic breakthrough experiments revealed that purifying CH_(4)from natural gas in one-step can be achieved in Ni-MOF with high-purity(>99.8%)and productivity(346.0 cm^(3)/g).Most significantly,the production of Ni-MOF can be scalably synthesized at room temperature,rendering it promising potential for industrial application.The combined advantages of exceptional separation performance,scalability,and cycle stability of Ni-MOF pave the way for one-step CH_(4)purification from natural gas.
