Efficient CO2 Sorbents Based on Silica Foam with Ultra-large Mesopores
(Energy & Environmental Science, 2012-04-19)A series of high-capacity, amine impregnated sorbents based on a cost-effective silica foam with ultra-large mesopores is reported. The sorbents exhibit fast CO2 capture kinetics, high adsorption capacity (of up to 5.8 ... -
Effects of Bonding Types and Functional Groups on CO2 Capture using Novel Multiphase Systems of Liquid-like Nanoparticle Organic Hybrid Materials
(Environmental Science & Technology, 2011-06-15)Novel liquid-like nanoparticle organic hybrid materials (NOHMs) which possess unique features including negligible vapor pressure and a high degree of tunability were synthesized and their physical and chemical properties ... -
Dynamics of Solvent-free Grafted Nanoparticles
(The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2012-01-26)The diffusivity and structural relaxation characteristics of oligomer-grafted nanoparticles have been investigated with simulations of a previously proposed coarse-grained model at atmospheric pressure. Solvent-free, ... -
Dynamics in Coarse-grained Models for Oligomer-grafted Silica Nanoparticles
(The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2012-05-30)Coarse-grained models of poly(ethylene oxide) oligomer-grafted nanoparticles are established by matching their structural distribution functions to atomistic simulation data. Coarse-grained force fields for bulk oligomer ... -
Diffusivities, viscosities, and conductivities of solvent-free ionically grafted nanoparticles
(Soft Matter, 2013-05-28)A new class of conductive composite materials, solvent-free ionically grafted nanoparticles, were modeled by coarse-grained molecular dynamics methods. The grafted oligomeric counterions were observed to migrate between ...
