To accelerate the development of new high-efficiency AHP adsorbents, we report a high-throughput grand canonical Monte Carlo(GCMC) approach to predict the heat storage capabilities of 78 known and 84292 hypothetical AlPO zeolites. We employ three evaluation metrics, including water working capacity, energy density, and regenerability, to comprehensively evaluate the performance of these AlPO structures. Finally, we identify 29 promising candidates with water adsorption properties superior to the commercial adsorbent AQSOA-Z02. This is the first study in large-scale screening of AlPO zeolites for water adsorption. The obtained results will provide important guidance toward the experimental discovery of high-performance AlPO zeolites for AHP applications.展开更多
Using n-propylamine as a template,deioned water and secondary-butanol(butan-2-ol)as solvents,a three-dimensional(3D)open-framework aluminophosphate[C3NH10]·[HAl3P3O13](1)and a two-dimensional layered aluminophosp...Using n-propylamine as a template,deioned water and secondary-butanol(butan-2-ol)as solvents,a three-dimensional(3D)open-framework aluminophosphate[C3NH10]·[HAl3P3O13](1)and a two-dimensional layered aluminophosphate[C3NH10]3·[Al3P4O16](2)were crystallized from the initial mixtures with compositions of Al2O3:2.4 P2O5:5.0 n-propylamine:100 H2O/butan-2-ol,respectively.They are characterized by X-ray powder diffraction(XRD),thermogravimetric(TG),and elemental(CHN)analyses and structurally determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a=0.85831(13)nm,b=1.7677(3)nm,c=1.04353(12)nm,=123.887(9)°,and V=1.3143(3)nm3.Compound 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a=1.1313(2)nm,b=1.4874(3)nm,c=1.8020(6)nm,=125.07(2)°,and V=2.4817(11)nm3.The results show that the properties of solvent have a significant influence on the structure-directing effect of n-propylamine in the crystallization of the open-framework aluminophosphates.展开更多
