Carbon dioxide capture in the presence of water vapour in InOF-1

Abstract

Kinetic uptake experiments on InOF-1 confirm a maximum of 5.42 wt% CO₂ capture at 30 °C and a significant 2-fold increase (∼11 wt%) in CO₂ capture under 20% relative humidity of water vapour. InOF-1 captures CO₂ under humid conditions (10% and 20% RH) and at relatively high temperatures (40 and 50 °C) without any degradation of the crystalline structure which was corroborated by PXRD.
