Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of chemical separation technology, and more specifically to a metal-organic framework material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the efficient utilization of natural gas and coal resources, acetylene (C2H2) has transformed from a fuel to a high-value feedstock for the production of various organic chemicals and polymers. During its production, carbon dioxide (CO2) inevitably coexists as an impurity, ranging from 3% to 50%, posing a challenge to its subsequent industrial utilization efficiency. CO2 removal is essential for producing high-purity (>99%) C2H2. However, due to the similar kinetic molecular size of the two molecules... The similar physical properties of C2H2 and CO2 (boiling points: C2H2, 189.3K; CO2, 194.7K) make C2H2 / CO2 separation one of the most difficult and challenging chemical separation processes. Traditional methods relying on cryogenic distillation or solvent extraction typically require enormous costs and energy consumption. To address this issue, adsorption separation technology using advanced adsorbents offers significant advantages such as low energy consumption, high product purity, simple process flow, and minimal scale-up effects, making it a promising candidate for industrial applications.
[0003] Traditional porous adsorbents, such as zeolite molecular sieves and activated carbon, typically exhibit low adsorption capacity and selectivity, making them unsuitable for industrial applications. As emerging crystalline porous materials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) or porous coordination polymers (PCPs) offer significant advantages in the separation of light hydrocarbon mixtures. Ideally, an ideal C2H2 / CO2 separation adsorbent should possess high adsorption capacity, selectivity, and moderate heat of adsorption. Furthermore, industrial parameters such as stability, cost-effectiveness, and scalability are also crucial. Currently, the trade-off between adsorption capacity and separation selectivity, economic efficiency, and the achievement of large-scale industrial production remain significant challenges in MOFs used for C2H2 / CO2 mixture separation. Therefore, finding highly efficient adsorbents suitable for industrial applications remains a challenge. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the above problems, this invention provides a metal-organic framework (MOF) material, its preparation method, and its applications. Using inexpensive and widely available malic acid as the organic ligand and 4,4'-bipyridine as the pillar, MOFs coordinate with transition metal nodes to participate in the architecture, forming a high-density porous cage structure and a framework surface environment with a strong negative electrostatic potential. MOFs can be scaled up for large-scale industrial production. The prepared MOFs exhibit superior trapping ability and large storage space for acetylene molecules, while also demonstrating excellent separation performance in acetylene-carbon dioxide mixtures, achieving high-purity and high-yield purification of acetylene from these mixtures. Furthermore, the low synthesis cost and the ability to synthesize in large quantities make it a promising candidate for practical industrial pressure swing adsorption (PSA) applications.

[0011] The ratio of zinc source to water is 2.4 mmol to 3 mmol: 5 ml. For example, the ratio of zinc source to water is 2.4 mmol: 5 ml, 2.5 mmol: 5 ml, 2.6 mmol: 5 ml, 2.7 mmol: 5 ml, 2.8 mmol: 5 ml, 2.9 mmol: 5 ml, 3 mmol: 5 ml, etc., but it is not limited to the values listed. Other unlisted values within the above range are also applicable.
[0012] A second objective of this invention is to provide a metal-organic framework material prepared by the above-described preparation method.
[0013] A third objective of this invention is to provide the application of the aforementioned metal-organic framework material as an adsorbent, wherein the metal-organic framework material is used as an adsorbent to contact a gas mixture containing acetylene and carbon dioxide for adsorption and separation.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] (1) This invention utilizes inexpensive and widely available malic acid as an organic ligand and 4,4'-bipyridine as a pillar, coordinating with transition metal nodes to participate in the architecture. This self-assembly forms a metal-organic framework (MOF) adsorbent with a high-density porous cage structure and a strong negative electrostatic potential framework surface environment.

The MOF constructed in this invention possesses a dense porous cage structure, providing greater space for gas storage. Simultaneously, the internal surface of the pores is distributed with a large number of negatively charged oxygen atoms, which generate a strong affinity with the positively charged hydrogen atoms at both ends of the acetylene molecule and repel the negatively charged oxygen atoms at both ends of the carbon dioxide molecule, thereby achieving high separation selectivity for acetylene / carbon dioxide.
[0019] (2) The metal-organic framework material prepared by the present invention has the following characteristics: efficient capture of acetylene from acetylene-carbon dioxide mixture, excellent dynamic breakthrough performance stability, material recyclability and solvent stability, good thermal stability, and considerable economic benefits.
[0020] (3) The metal-organic framework material prepared by this invention has achieved the transformation from gram-level synthesis to kilogram-level synthesis through the optimization of synthesis conditions. At the same time, the kilogram-level synthesized sample still maintains excellent adsorption performance for C2H2 / CO2 mixed gas, excellent dynamic breakthrough performance stability, material recyclability and solvent stability, good thermal stability, and considerable economic benefits. It is expected to be a potential physical adsorbent in the fields of high-efficiency and low-energy-consumption pressure swing adsorption and other industrial adsorption separation technologies, and realize the replacement of traditional energy-intensive technologies such as solvent extraction or low-temperature distillation for the separation of acetylene and carbon dioxide in industry.

[0059] 2.4 mmol of zinc acetate dihydrate was dissolved in 5 mL of ultrapure water, and 1.8 mmol of 4,4'-bipyridine and 1.8 mmol of fumaric acid were dissolved in 5 mL of methanol. After complete dissolution, the two mixed solutions were transferred to a polytetrafluoroethylene reactor and stirred at room temperature for 1 h to ensure thorough mixing.

A photograph of the sample is shown in Figure 4.
[0060] In metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), the carboxyl and hydroxyl oxygen atoms on the malic acid ligand are ionicly bonded to zinc to form a regular 2D layered network structure. Adjacent 2D layered network structures are further bridged by 4,4'-bipyridine. After the malic acid and zinc ions are ionicly bonded, a vacancy is created by the six-coordinated zinc ion, which continues to coordinate with the nitrogen atom in the 4,4'-bipyridine to form a stable structure. This self-assembly assembly forms a regular, highly stable, dense, rigid 3D network framework. The structure of this Zn-bpy-DLmal MOF is shown below. Figure 5 As shown, the cavity size of the 3D rigid network framework is 0.85 × 0.6 × 0.62 nm. 3 The aperture of the connecting cavities is 0.3 nm × 0.39 nm, and the pore volume is 0.1–0.2 cm³. 3 / g, porosity 30-40%, specific surface area 150-300m² 2 / g.
[0061] The structure of the metal-organic framework material Zn-bpy-fum in Comparative Example 1 is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the one-dimensional through-hole size of the 3D flexible interpenetrating network framework is 0.3 × 0.42 nm.3 Pore capacity 0.05–0.1 cm³ 3 / g, specific surface area of 100-200m² 2 / g.
[0062] Figure 7 The X-ray diffraction pattern is shown for testing the phase purity and organic solution immersion stability of the Zn-bpy-DLmal material in Example 1 of this invention. Figure 7 In the text 'a', 'Activated' refers to the activation treatment of the Zn-bpy-DLmal material prepared in Example 1, 'As-synthesized' refers to the Zn-bpy-DLmal material synthesized in Example 1, and 'Simulated' refers to the XRD simulation of the obtained crystal structure information (cif file) using Materials Studio 2023 software. The Zn-bpy-DLmal material synthesized in Example 1 exhibits extremely high diffraction peak intensities, indicating high crystallinity and phase purity. Furthermore, after soaking in organic and aqueous solutions for one week, as... Figure 7 As shown in b, the X-ray diffraction peaks and positions remained essentially unchanged, further verifying the material's stability in organic solutions and water.
[0063] It should be noted that the specific activation process is as follows: the Zn-bpy-DLmal material is washed three times with methanol solution and dried overnight at 60°C under vacuum for 12 hours.
[0064] Figure 8 This is a thermogravimetric curve of the Zn-bpy-DLmal material from Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Figure 8 As shown, the Zn-bpy-DLmal material synthesized in Example 1 exhibits significant weight loss at 400℃, indicating the collapse of the framework structure, and the material's thermal stability reaches up to 400℃.
[0065] When conducting gas adsorption tests, the Zn-bpy-DLmal and Zn-bpy-fum materials need to be activated to remove guest molecules from the materials. The activation method is the same as the activation steps described above.
[0066] Figure 9 This is the CO2 adsorption isotherm at 195 K for the Zn-bpy-DLmal material of Example 1 of this invention. Figure 9 As shown, the Zn-bpy-DLmal material synthesized in Example 1 has a specific surface area of 162.7 m² / s² based on CO₂ adsorption at 195 K. 2 / g, pore volume is 0.116cm³ 3 / g.
[0067] Figure 10This is the CO2 adsorption isotherm at 195°C for the Zn-bpy-fum material in Comparative Example 1 of this invention. Figure 10 As shown, the Zn-bpy-fum material synthesized in Comparative Example 1 has a specific surface area of 145.1 m² / s² based on CO2 adsorption at 195 K. 2 / g, pore volume is 0.089cm³ 3 / g.
[0068] Figure 11 The adsorption isotherms of acetylene and carbon dioxide for the Zn-bpy-DLmal material of Example 1 of this invention at 298 K are shown below. Figure 11 As shown, under 298K conditions, the Zn-bpy-DLmal material synthesized in Example 1 adsorbed acetylene and carbon dioxide at capacities of 3.1 mmol / g and 1.9 mmol / g, respectively.
[0069] Figure 12 The adsorption isotherms of the Zn-bpy-fum material of Comparative Example 1 of this invention for acetylene and carbon dioxide at 298 K are shown below. Figure 12 As shown, under 298 K conditions, the Zn-bpy-fum material synthesized in Comparative Example 1 had an adsorption capacity of 1.9 mmol / g for acetylene and 0.4 mmol / g for carbon dioxide, and exhibited a significant "gate opening phenomenon," which is unfavorable for the separation of mixed gases.

Figure 13 As shown, acetylene and carbon dioxide both reached adsorption equilibrium at 10 min, but the adsorption amounts differed significantly, being 3.18 mmol / g and 1.95 mmol / g, respectively.
[0071] The metal-organic framework material Zn-bpy-DLmal obtained in Example 1 was packed into a fixed-bed adsorption column with an inner diameter of 4.6 mm and a length of 20 cm. At 298 K and 1 bar, an acetylene / carbon dioxide (50:50) mixture was flowed through the fixed-bed adsorption column packed with Zn-bpy-DLmal at a fixed flow rate of 2.0, 5.0, or 10.0 mL / min. The carbon dioxide component preferentially penetrated the bed, and high-purity carbon dioxide gas (>99.9%) was obtained at the tail end of the adsorption column. Adsorption was stopped when the adsorption column was completely penetrated. The adsorption column was regenerated by purging with helium at 100 °C, yielding high-purity acetylene gas (≥99%) during regeneration; alternatively, desorption regeneration was performed using a vacuum pump at 100 °C with a vacuum degree of 0.05 bar.
[0072] Figure 14 The dynamic breakthrough curves of the Zn-bpy-DLmal material prepared in Example 1 of this invention at 298 K are shown for three different flow rates (2.0 mL / min, 5.0 mL / min, and 10.0 mL / min) and a volume ratio of 1:1 acetylene / carbon dioxide mixed gas components. Figure 14 As shown, acetylene and carbon dioxide have distinct separation operating ranges, and exhibit excellent separation performance at all three flow rates.
[0073] Figure 15 The dynamic breakthrough curve of the Zn-bpy-DLmal material prepared in Example 1 of this invention under cyclic conditions of 1:1 volume ratio acetylene / carbon dioxide mixed gas at a flow rate of 2.0 mL / min at 298 K is shown below. Figure 11 As shown, the breakthrough time interval of acetylene-carbon dioxide did not decrease significantly in the five cycles, maintaining good cycle stability.
[0074] Figure 16 The image shows the acetylene desorption process curve of the Zn-bpy-DLmal material prepared in Example 1 of this invention after dynamic breakthrough at a flow rate of 2.0 mL / min with a 1:1 volume ratio acetylene / carbon dioxide mixed gas component at 298 K. Figure 16 As shown, when purged and desorbed with helium at a rate of 10 mL / min, carbon dioxide was first purged at approximately 11.3 min / g, followed by acetylene product with a purity ≥99%.
[0075] Figure 17 The adsorption isotherms of acetylene and carbon dioxide on a kilogram-scale synthetic sample of the Zn-bpy-DLmal material prepared in Example 3 of this invention at 298 K are shown below. Figure 17 As shown, the adsorption capacity of the synthesized Zn-bpy-DLmal material for acetylene and carbon dioxide was not significantly reduced by scale-up.
[0076] Figure 18 The dynamic breakthrough curve of a kilogram-scale synthetic sample of Zn-bpy-DLmal material prepared in Example 3 of this invention, with a volume ratio of 1:1 acetylene / carbon dioxide mixed gas component at a flow rate of 2.0 mL / min under 298 K conditions, is shown below. Figure 18 As shown, the synthesized Zn-bpy-DLmal material exhibits a clear separation range for acetylene and carbon dioxide, maintaining excellent separation performance.
[0077] The metal-organic framework material Zn-bpy-fum obtained in Comparative Example 1 was packed into a fixed-bed adsorption column with an inner diameter of 4.6 mm and a length of 20 cm. At 298 K and 1 bar, an acetylene / carbon dioxide (50:50) mixture was flowed through the fixed-bed adsorption column packed with Zn-bpy-fum at a fixed flow rate of 2.0 mL / min. The carbon dioxide component preferentially penetrated the bed, and high-purity carbon dioxide gas (>99%) was obtained at the tail end of the adsorption column. Adsorption was stopped when the adsorption column was completely penetrated. The adsorption column was regenerated by purging with helium at 100 °C, yielding acetylene gas (≥90%) during regeneration; alternatively, desorption regeneration was performed using a vacuum pump at 100 °C with a vacuum degree of 0.05 bar.
[0078] Figure 19 The image shows the dynamic breakthrough curve of the Zn-bpy-fum material in Comparative Example 1 of this invention at 298 K with a flow rate of 2.0 mL / min and a volume ratio of 1:1 for an acetylene / carbon dioxide mixed gas. Figure 19 As shown, acetylene and carbon dioxide have a relatively short separation range, and the purity of the resulting gas is low.
[0079] Figure 20 The image shows the acetylene desorption process curve of the Zn-bpy-fum material in Comparative Example 1 of this invention after dynamic breakthrough at a flow rate of 2.0 mL / min with a volume ratio of 1:1 acetylene / carbon dioxide mixed gas component at 298 K. Figure 20 As shown, when purged with helium at a rate of 5 mL / min, carbon dioxide was initially removed at approximately 10.2 min / g, followed by an acetylene product with a purity ≥90%, which was lower than the concentration of the product obtained under the same conditions from Zn-bpy-DLmal prepared in Example 1. This is because the Zn-bpy-fum material has a flexible, double-interpenetrating structure, which exhibits significant co-adsorption during dynamic separation, thus affecting the concentration of the obtained product.
[0080] It should be noted that the preparation method described in Example 1 synthesized a crystalline sample, while the preparation methods in Examples 2 and 3 synthesized a powder sample. The performance parameters of the crystalline and powder samples are quite similar, and the performance differences are negligible.
