Abstract:Organic amine (R−NH 2 ) reagents as dominant chemical sorbents for CO 2 capture in industrial processes suffer from high energy compensation for regeneration. Herein, we, for the first time, report the finding of Co(III) coordinating with NH 3 molecules regulating the interaction between NH 3 and CO 2 to electrostatic interactions instead of a chemical reaction and achieve CO 2 capture under nearambient conditions. NH 3 coordinating with Co(III) significantly reduces its alkalinity and reactivity with CO 2 owi… Show more
