摘要

Abstract

Reliable estimation of the pore size distribution (PSD) in porous materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) is crucial for accurately assessing adsorption capacity and corresponding selectivity. In this study

the so-called zeolitic imidazolate framework-7 (ZIF-7) is successfully synthesized via relatively fast and convenient microwave technique. The morphology and structure of the obtained MOF were characterized by XRD

SEM and N

and CO

adsorption/desorption isotherms at 77 K and 0℃ respectively. Then

to determine the PSD of the fabricated MOF

carbon dioxide isotherms are experimentally measured at various temperatures up to atmospheric pressure. Afterward

the experimental CO

isotherms data are utilized in two recently proposed in-house algorithms of SHN1 and SHN2 to extract the true PSD of manufactured ZIF-7. The obtained results revealed that median pore diameter of the fabricated ZIF-7 is estimated around 0.404 nm and 0.370 nm by using CO

isotherms at 273 K and 298 K respectively. These values are in good agreement with the real pore diameter of 0.

42 nm. Moreover

experimental data of water adsorption isotherms over four different MOFs

borrowed from literature

are employed to illustrate further effectiveness of the above algorithms on successful determination of the corresponding pore size distributions. All predicted PSDs are proved to be in good agreement with those obtained from independent methods such as topology and morphology studies.
