The CO2 adsorption properties of hybrid organic–inorganic MCM-41 silicas with different particle sizes are described here. Micrometric to nanometric MCM-41 silicas are functionalized by introducing amino groups via grafting of 3-[2-(2-aminoethyl)aminoethyl]aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (PAPTS). A combination of FTIR and SS-NMR spectroscopies is adopted to distinguish between physisorbed and chemisorbed CO2. A higher amount of CO2 is physisorbed in the nanometric sample because of a higher pore volume, whereas chemisorbed (carbamate and acid carbamic) species are more abundant in the micrometric sample. The adsorption process is also quantitatively studied using three different techniques (i.e. volumetric measurements, Thermo-Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Zero Length Column (ZLC) analysis), especially focusing on the reversibility of the reactions between CO2 and amino groups. The three techniques show a higher CO2 adsorption capacity for MCM-41 with nanometric size compared to the micrometric one. Finally, the process is studied at different temperatures (i.e. from 35 to 90 °C) in order to find the best operating conditions.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
