摘要
Mesoporous chitosan-SiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were successfully synthesized. The prepared nanoparticles were characterized using TEM, FTIR, XRD, TGA, EDX, and (CHN) elemental analysis. From TEM micrograph, chitosan-SiO2 NPs were sphere-like, pretty uniformly distributed with coarse surface. The average size of chitosan-SiO2 NPs was determined as 211 nm with DLS, which was confirmed by TEM. The mesoporous structure of chitosan-SiO2 NPs was characterized with N-2 adsorption/desorption measurements. BET surface area was 621 m(2) g(-1) and the total pore volume was 0.71 m(3) g(-1)CO(2) adsorption was evaluated by a volumetric method. Chitosan-SiO2 NPs showed a maximum CO2 adsorption capacity of 4.39 mmol g(-1) at 25 degrees C and a high selective separation capacity for CO2 over N-2 (S-CO2/N2 = 15.46). The influence of amines on carbon dioxide adsorption was discussed. Stable CO2 adsorption/desorption was confirmed after six cycles of experiments. Therefore, chitosan-SiO2 NPs exhibit great potential for CO2 capture.
