Summary: | Frameworks of NanZSM‐5 type zeolites with various Si/Al ratios have been constructed and optimized with molecular dynamic quench simulation. The results show that the structure parameters of NanZSM‐5 type zeolite, including the bond length and atomic charges, are consistent with those predicted by ab initio cluster calculations. It was also observed that atomic charges of Si atoms were shifted to higher field in NanZSM‐5 type zeolite with lower Si/Al ratio. Then, the adsorption of isobutene on NanZSM‐5 with various Si/Al ratios has been investigated using grand canonical ensemble Monte Carlo simulation and Cvff‐300‐1.01 forcefield. The simulated adsorption amount was in good agreement with the experimental data. Based on these facts, the effects of Si/Al ratio on the adsorption amount and adsorption isotherms of isobutene on NanZSM‐5 were predicted. The results indicated that Si/Al ratio was important for the adsorption of isobutene and the adsorption amount was decreased as the Si/Al ratio was increased, which can be explained that the atomic charge of Na+ cation would influence greatly the π electrons of the isobutene double bond due to the Coulomb force. In addition, the adsorption sites of isobutene and interaction energy of isobutene with NanZSM‐5 were also discussed. |
