Abstract
Two kinds of protic ionic liquids, N-methylmorpholinium formate ([NMMH][For]) and N-ethylmorpholinium formate ([NEMH][For]), were synthesized by the acid-base neutralization method. The solubility of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the two ionic liquids was measured at temperatures of 298.15 to 338.15 K and pressures of up to 900 kPa. The solubility increases linearly with pressure, indicating that CO2 is physically absorbed in ionic liquids. The solubility of CO2 in [NEMH][For] is higher than that of [NMMH][For]. Absorption behavior was investigated by thermodynamic properties, such as the Henry's law constant, partial molar Gibbs free energy, partial molar enthalpy, and partial molar entropy. The Pitzer's model and the Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) cubic equation of state were used to fit the solubility data, respectively. The Pitzer's model is found to have better prediction accuracy. The interaction of two protic ionic liquids with CO2 was analyzed using quantum chemistry. The molecular mechanism of CO2 absorption by two protic ionic liquids was explained from the microscopic point of view. CO2 + [NEMH][For] has more hydrogen bonds and a higher interaction energy. The cation–anion interaction of [NEMH][For] diminishes in the presence of CO2, resulting in an increase in the cation–anion distance. These factors result in higher solubility of CO2 in [NEMH][For].
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical Thermodynamics exists primarily for dissemination of significant new knowledge in experimental equilibrium thermodynamics and transport properties of chemical systems. The defining attributes of The Journal are the quality and relevance of the papers published.
The Journal publishes work relating to gases, liquids, solids, polymers, mixtures, solutions and interfaces. Studies on systems with variability, such as biological or bio-based materials, gas hydrates, among others, will also be considered provided these are well characterized and reproducible where possible. Experimental methods should be described in sufficient detail to allow critical assessment of the accuracy claimed.
Authors are encouraged to provide physical or chemical interpretations of the results. Articles can contain modelling sections providing representations of data or molecular insights into the properties or transformations studied. Theoretical papers on chemical thermodynamics using molecular theory or modelling are also considered.
The Journal welcomes review articles in the field of chemical thermodynamics but prospective authors should first consult one of the Editors concerning the suitability of the proposed review.
Contributions of a routine nature or reporting on uncharacterised materials are not accepted.
