ABSTRACT
Global warming associated with CO2 emission has led to frequent extreme weather events in recent years. Carbon capture using porous solid adsorbents is promising for addressing the greenhouse effect. Herein, we report a series of robust metal-organic cages (MOCs) featuring various functional groups, such as methyl and amine groups, for CO2/N2 separation. Significantly, the amine-group-functionalized MOC-QW-3-NH2 displays the best selective CO2 adsorption performance, as confirmed by single-component adsorption and transient breakthrough experiments. The distinct CO2 adsorption mechanism has been well studied via theoretical calculations, confirming that the amine groups play a vital role for efficiently selective CO2 adsorption resulting from hierarchical adsorbate-framework interaction.
