This study focused on a comparison of the adsorption properties of graphene oxide (GO) and its composites that were prepared via cross-linking with chitosan (CTS) or Al3+ species, respectively. Comparative material characterization was achieved by several complementary methods: SEM, NMR spectroscopy, zeta-potential, dye-based adsorption, and gas adsorption at equilibrium and dynamic conditions. SEM, solids NMR, and zeta-potential results provided supporting evidence for cross-linking between GO and the respective cross-linker units. The zeta-potential of GO composites decreased upon cross-linking due to electrostatic interactions and charge neutralization. Equilibrium and kinetic adsorption profiles of the GO composites with methylene blue (MB) in aqueous media revealed superior uptake over pristine GO. The monolayer adsorption capacity (mg g−1) of MB are listed in descending order for each material: GO–CTS (408.6) > GO–Al (351.4) > GO (267.1). The gas adsorption results showed parallel trends, where the surface area and pore structure of the composites exceeded that for GO due to pillaring effects upon cross-linking. The green strategy reported herein for the preparation of tunable GO-based composites revealed versatile adsorption properties for diverse heterogeneous adsorption processes.

A set of three commercial zeolites (13X, 5A, and 4A) of two distinct shapes have been characterized: (i) pure zeolite powders and (ii) extruded spherical beads composed of pure zeolite powders and an unknown amount of binder used during their preparation process. The coupling of gas porosimetry experiments using argon at 87 K and CO2 at 273 K allowed determining both the amount of the binder and its effect on adsorption properties. It was evidenced that the beads contain approximately 25 wt% of binder. Moreover, from CO2 adsorption experiments at 273 K, it could be inferred that the binder present in both 13X and 5A zeolites does not interact with the probe molecule. However, for the 4A zeolite, pore filling pressures were shifted and strong interaction with CO2 was observed leading to irreversible adsorption of the probe. These results have been compared to XRD, IR spectroscopy, and ICP-AES analysis. The effect of the binder in shaped zeolite bodies can thus have a crucial impact on applications in adsorption and catalysis.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are modular and adjustable nano-porous materials with applications in gas storage, separations, and sensing. Flexible/dynamic components that respond to adsorbed gas can give MOFs unique or enhanced adsorption properties. Here, we explore the adsorption properties that could be imparted to a MOF by a rotaxane molecular shuttle (RMS) in its pores. In an RMS-MOF, a macrocyclic wheel is mechanically interlocked with a strut. The wheel shuttles between stations on the strut that are also gas adsorption sites. We pose and analyze a simple statistical thermodynamic model of gas adsorption in an RMS-MOF that accounts for (i) wheel/gas competition for sites on the strut and (ii) the entropy endowed by the shuttling wheel. We determine how the amount of gas adsorbed, position of the wheel, and energy change upon adsorption depend on temperature, pressure, and the interactions of the gas/wheel with the stations. Our model reveals that, compared to an ordinary Langmuir material, the chemistry of the RMS-MOF can be tuned to render adsorption more or less temperature-sensitive and release more or less heat upon adsorption. The model also uncovers a non-monotonic relationship between temperature and the position of the wheel if gas out-competes the wheel for its preferable station.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are modular and tunable nano-porous materials with applications in gas storage, separations, and sensing. Flexible/dynamic components that respond to adsorbed gas can give MOFs unique or enhanced adsorption properties. Here, we explore the adsorption properties that could be imparted to a MOF by a rotaxane molecular shuttle (RMS) in its pores. In the unit cell of an RMS-MOF, a macrocyclic wheel is mechanically interlocked with a strut of the MOF scaffold. The wheel shuttles between stations on the strut that are also gas adsorption sites. At a level of abstraction similar to the seminal Langmuir adsorption model, we pose and analyze a simple statistical mechanical model of gas adsorption in an RMS-MOF that accounts for (i) wheel/gas competition for sites on the strut and (ii) gas-induced changes in the configurational entropy of the shuttling wheel. We determine how the amount of gas adsorbed, position of the wheel, and differential energy of adsorption depend on temperature, pressure, and the interactions of the gas/wheel with the stations. Our model reveals that, compared to a rigid, Langmuir material, the chemistry of the RMS-MOF can be tuned to render gas adsorption more or less temperature-sensitive and to release more or less heat upon adsorption. The model also uncovers a non-monotonic relationship between the temperature and the position of the wheel if gas out-competes the wheel for its preferable station.
