Desorption properties of the R600, R134a and their mixtures in several MOF structures: A molecular dynamics study.

ABSTRACT: The efficiency of organic Rankine cycle is expected to be enhanced via using metal organic heat carriers. Thus, it is important to investigate the properties of organic working fluid in metal organic frameworks (MOFs). In this paper, molecular dynamics method was employed to study the desorption properties of R600, R134a, and their mixtures in MOF-5, IRMOF-16, and MOF-200 structures. The results show that the desorption capacity of pure working fluids are negatively correlated with their molecular size. In mixed refrigerant systems, the desorption of the working medium is competitive, and the higher the proportion of fluorine atoms in the system, the greater the desorption heat in IRMOF-16. It is noteworthy that the behavior of the desorption heat in the other two MOFs is diametrically opposed to this result. The desorption capacity is positively correlated with the average pore size, specific surface area, and porosity of the MOF. The self-diffusion coefficient of the working medium in MOF is inversely proportional to its molecular weight, but directly proportional to its molecular size and to the pore size of MOF.

Project description:The formation of ionic liquid (IL) mixtures has been proposed as an approach to rationally fine-tune the physicochemical properties of ILs for a variety of applications. However, the effects of forming such mixtures on the resultant properties of the liquids are only beginning to be understood. Towards a more complete understanding of both the thermodynamics of mixing ILs and the effect of mixing these liquids on their structures and physicochemical properties, the spatial arrangement and free volume of IL mixtures containing the common [C4C1im]+ cation and different anions have been systematically explored using small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) and 129Xe NMR techniques. Anion size has the greatest effect on the spatial arrangement of the ILs and their mixtures in terms of the size of the non-polar domains and inter-ion distances. It was found that differences in coulombic attraction between oppositely charged ions arising from the distribution of charge density amongst the atoms of the anion also significantly influences these inter-ion distances. PALS and 129Xe NMR results pertaining to the free volume of these mixtures were found to strongly correlate with each other despite the vastly different timescales of these techniques. Furthermore, the excess free volumes calculated from each of these measurements were in excellent agreement with the excess volumes of mixing measured for the IL mixtures investigated. The correspondence of these techniques indicates that the static and dynamic free volume of these liquid mixtures are strongly linked. Consequently, fluxional processes such as hydrogen bonding do not significantly contribute to the free volumes of these liquids compared to the spatial arrangement of ions arising from their size, shape and coulombic attraction. Given the relationship between free volume and transport properties such as viscosity and conductivity, these results provide a link between the structures of IL mixtures, the thermodynamics of mixing and their physicochemical properties.
