Synthesis of metal-organic framework compound using L-Arginine solvation and its adsorption capability to CO2
Cu based metal organic framework compound was synthesized by traditional solvothermal method with benzenetricarboxylic acid(BTC),which was named Cu-BTC. And a new compound was synthesized by Cu-BTC modification using L-arginine salvation,which was named Cu-BTC-Arg. The CO2adsorption capacity of Cu-BTC-Arg and Cu-BTC was studied. The characterization results showed that:L-arginine does not coordinate with Cu2+,indicating that it is only used as auxiliary solvent;Compared with Cu-BTC,Cu-BTC-Arg had smaller grain size,larger specific surface area and greater micropore volume. The experimental results showed that:Under the conditions of room temperature,simulated flue gas without water vapor and flue gas flow 80 mL/min,two kinds of Cu-BTC-Arg synthesized with different L-arginine amount both had the largest CO2adsorption capacity;The near-saturated CO2adsorption capacity were both 4.9 mmol/g, which was much higher than that of Cu-BTC. The adsorption of CO2on Cu-BTC-Arg was mainly physical adsorption.
