Abstract
The purification of CH4 and CO2 underscores the critical need. Copper-based Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) present a promising alternative for gas separation. In this work, we developed a novel Cu-MOF with increased open metal sites to enhance CO2 adsorption by utilizing N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) as a structure-directing solvent. Cu-MOF possesses a three-dimensional (3D) open framework, incorporating a one-dimensional channel structure with dimensions of 10.2 × 9.7 Å. Characterized by a specific surface area of 151.3 m2/g, optimized pore structure, and open metal sites, Cu-MOF has demonstrated superior CO2 adsorption capabilities and potential for application in CO2/CH4 gas separation. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations have elucidated that the copper open sites, monodentate coordinated carboxylates, and coordinated water molecules within Cu-MOF are the primary sites for CO2 adsorption.
