Tuning the Basicity of Ionic Liquids for Equimolar CO(2) Capture

Journal Article · · Angewandte Chemie International Edition
OSTI ID:1044714
Basic ionic liquids (ILs) based on a phosphonium hydroxide derivative can be tuned for CO{sub 2} capture by varying the weak proton donors, which have different pK{sub a} values. The stability, absorption capacity, and absorption enthalpy of the ILs could be easily tuned: the best IL for CO{sub 2} capture has good stability (>300 C), energy saving (ca. 56 kJ mol{sup -1}), and equimolar absorption capability.
