Abstract

Selective adsorption of CO2 from natural gas results in increased calorific value, decreased gas volume, and reduced corrosion. For this purpose, the development of high-performance adsorbents with regard to both adsorption capacity and CO2/CH4 selectivity receives great attention. Herein, two new conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) were prepared by Yamamoto homocoupling and Sonogashira–Hagihara cross-coupling reaction. The significant role of homo- and cross-coupling in CMPs in selective CO2 separation was investigated. Notably, the cross-coupled CMP (NUT-15, NUT means Nanjing Tech University) shows CO2 uptake around twice that of homocoupled CMP (NUT-14) under the analogous conditions. Furthermore, the importance of KOH-activation and temperature-controlled carbonization in efficient CO2 capture was studied. For this, NUT-15 was further subjected to carbonization and highly active porous carbons (PCs) were obtained. It is noteworthy that PC-800 with high carbonization yield (78%) and suitable pore st...
