We report a novel Fe(II) compartmentalized coordination polymer (CCP) capable of physisorbing gas molecules in a selective manner. The crystal structure was modelled theoretically under the Density Functional Theory revealing the presence of discrete voids of 380 Å3, significantly larger than those reported for its predecesors. Adsorption isotherms of pure N2, CH4 and CO2 were measured, obtaining a loading capacity of 0.6, 1.7 and 2.2 molecules/void at 10 bar and at 298 K. Dynamic breakthrough gas experiments have been performed at different fluxes and temperatures, showing efficient adsorption and excellent selectivities for CO2 in gas mixtures with methane and nitrogen.

AbstractMulti-atom vacancies and pores in diamond-structured carbon phases play an important role in carbon sieves and carbon based storage. The size and shape of pores have a profound effect on the energetics of adsorptive storage. We are modeling large numbers of vacancy configurations with a combination of ab initio density functional theory (DFT), tight binding DFT and simpler methods based on Brenner-potentials and modified Brenner potentials. The more accurate calculations serve as the basis of the parametrization which is then used in lattice Monte Carlo simulations on more complex vacancies. The results will be put in the context of SiC-derived porous carbon materials with the purpose to explore basic questions of energetics in porous carbons.
