Because of the much larger surface area than that of the corresponding bulk liquid, DM, which contains amino-functionalized ionic liquids (ILs), is a promising CO2 absorption material provided with quick absorption speed. In the present study, we successfully prepared powdery DMs by utilizing aqueous solutions of amino acid-based ILs (tetraethylammonium glycine [N2222][Gly], and tetraethylammonium alanine [N2222][Ala]). Although a DM with lysine-based IL (N2222) [Lys]) was also prepared, only a soufflé-like material was obtained. We measured CO2 absorption performance for the DMs to find that the mass-base absorption ability (mass-base A.A.) (CO2 mol/DM kg) and the mol-base one (CO2 mol/IL mol) of [N2222][Lys] were ca. two times of [N2222][Gly] and [N2222][Ala], while the absorption speed of the former was inferior to the latter two, i.e., ca.15 min vs. 5 min for 90% absorption. In order to improve the mass-base A.A. of [N2222][Gly], we used 10% of aqueous poly(allylamine) (PAlAm) solution instead of water. The resultant mass-base A.A. proved to be significantly larger (1.9) than either of those of the respective single component systems (1.1 and 0.75 for the bulk IL and aq. PAlAm, respectively), and comparable to the A.A. (1.6 - 2.5) of 20% - 30% monoethanolamine solution which is commonly used in industrial application.展开更多

Ultrasonic irradiation(225 W power) of feathers in 8.4 mol·L^(-1) hydrochloric acid containing 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride as a cosolvent at 80 °C for 1.4 h, followed by heating at 110 °C for 8.3 h, resulted in hydrolysis of their keratin component in an excellent 83.1% yield. Compared with previous methods, this new method employs reduced amounts of hydrochloric acid, shorter reaction time, and affords amino acid hydrolysis products in higher yield.展开更多

The CO_2 adsorption behavior was investigated in a thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA). Among them, poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA)-[N1111][Gly]exhibits the best CO_2 adsorption properties in terms of adsorption capacity and rate. The CO_2 adsorption capacity reaches up to 2.14 mmol·g-1 sorbent at 35 °C. The fast CO_2 adsorption rate of PMMA-[N1111][Gly] allows 60 min of adsorption equilibrium time at 35 °C and much shorter time of 4 min is achieved at 75 °C. Further, Avrami's fractional-order kinetic model was used and fitted well with the experiment data, which shows good consistency between experimental results and theoretical model. In addition, PMMA-[N1111][Gly] remained excellent durability in the continuous adsorption–desorption cycling test. Therefore, this stable PMMA-[N1111][Gly] sorbent has great potential to be used for fast CO_2 adsorption from flue-gas.展开更多

SO3H-functional ionic liquids 1-methyl-3-(4-sulfonic acid)butylimidazolium hydrosulfate [MIm(CH2)4803H][HSO4] and 1-methyl-3-(4-sulfonic acid)butylimidazolium triflate [MIm(CH2)4SO3H][OTf] were firstly employed as cocatalysts instead of these Lewis acid and Brφnsted acids. By using a ligand-free and weak corrosive catalyst in situ prepared form PdBr2, LiBr.H2O, and [MIm(CH2)4SO3H][OTf], the arnidocarbo- nylation of benzaldehyde, acetamide, and CO could proceed smoothly and afford N-acetyl-α-phenylglycine with yield of 58% in [C6mim]PF6 medium.展开更多
