Abstract
In this study, a composite material composed of Mg-MOF-74 and graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized to overcome MOFs’ limitations in CO2 capture. At 273 K/101 kPa, the Mg-MOF-74 composite containing 6 wt% GO achieved 3.46 mmol/g CO2 uptake and 114.4 CO2/N2 selectivity, demonstrating 25.8 % and 29.3 % enhancements compared with pristine Mg-MOF-74. This enhancement is due to the optimization of CO2 adsorption by the new pores formed at the interface and the strong affinity of GO functional groups for CO2 molecules. Furthermore, due to the excellent properties of GO and its strong interaction with Mg-MOF-74, the composites show notable improvements in thermal, adsorption–desorption cycling, and moisture stability. Notably, the Mg-MOF-74 composite containing 6 wt% urea-modified GO exhibits optimal CO2 adsorption/stability. This is not only due to the synergy between GO and Mg-MOF-74, but also because the amine groups and polar CO bonds in urea can boost adsorption/separation and enhance stability through amine-Mg2+ coordination. These findings highlight Mg-MOF-74@GO composites as promising candidates for industrial CO2 capture.
期刊介绍:
The journal provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies and reviews related to the electronic, electrochemical, ionic, magnetic, optical, and biosensing properties of solid state materials in bulk, thin film and particulate forms. Papers dealing with synthesis, processing, characterization, structure, physical properties and computational aspects of nano-crystalline, crystalline, amorphous and glassy forms of ceramics, semiconductors, layered insertion compounds, low-dimensional compounds and systems, fast-ion conductors, polymers and dielectrics are viewed as suitable for publication. Articles focused on nano-structured aspects of these advanced solid-state materials will also be considered suitable.
