A series of Mg−Al−CO3 layered double hydroxide (LDH) samples have been synthesized by conventional precipitation and coprecipitation methods. The effect of various synthetic parameters, such as cation molar ratio, mode of addition of magnesium and aluminum precursors, addition temperature, agitation, and drying conditions, on the structural, textural, and thermal behavior of the samples has been studied. These properties were correlated with the CO2 adsorption capacity of the samples. The Mg−Al−CO3 LDH sample prepared with optimized synthetic parameters has shown the higher CO2 adsorption capacity (22 cm3/g).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
