Effect of anion on CO2 capture in PVC–g–P[VBIm][X] ionomers: experimental and density functional theory studies

Ionic liquids have received special attention as CO 2 adsorbents from natural gas. This article has investigated the adsorption of CO 2 onto three polyvinyl chloride–ionic liquid ionomers (polyvinyl chloride–1–vinyl–3–butyilimidazolium bromide, PVC–g–P[VBIm][Br]; polyvinyl chloride–1–vinyl–3–butyili...

Description
Summary:Ionic liquids have received special attention as CO 2 adsorbents from natural gas. This article has investigated the adsorption of CO 2 onto three polyvinyl chloride–ionic liquid ionomers (polyvinyl chloride–1–vinyl–3–butyilimidazolium bromide, PVC–g–P[VBIm][Br]; polyvinyl chloride–1–vinyl–3–butyilimidazolium thiocyanate, PVC–g–P[VBIm][SCN]; polyvinyl chloride–1–vinyl–3–butyilimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, PVC–g–P[VBIm][BF 4 ]) using quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) at various temperatures and pressures. The non-linear pseudo-second-order model was used to obtain the CO 2 adsorption kinetic parameters. The thermodynamic parameters of CO 2 adsorption were evaluated by fitting the experimental adsorption data with the dual-mode model. The obtained thermodynamic and kinetic parameters indicated that CO 2 adsorption had exothermic and physisorption nature. The PVC–g–P [VBIm][SCN] ionomer had a better performance in adsorbing the carbon dioxide gas. The density functional theory (DFT) method was also employed to confirm adsorption energy of CO 2 onto three polyvinyl chloride–ionic liquid ionomers with different anions.
