Cooperative CO₂ adsorption mechanism in a perfluorinated Ce^IV-based metal organic framework.

ABSTRACT: Adsorbents able to uptake large amounts of gases within a narrow range of pressure, i.e., phase-change adsorbents, are emerging as highly interesting systems to achieve excellent gas separation performances with little energy input for regeneration. A recently discovered phase-change metal-organic framework (MOF) adsorbent is F4_MIL-140A(Ce), based on Ce^IV and tetrafluoroterephthalate. This MOF displays a non-hysteretic step-shaped CO₂ adsorption isotherm, reaching saturation in conditions of temperature and pressure compatible with real life application in post-combustion carbon capture, biogas upgrading and acetylene purification. Such peculiar behaviour is responsible for the exceptional CO₂/N₂ selectivity and reverse CO₂/C
