“…Recently, a wealth of information about liquid structure, intermolecular interactions and diffusion properties of aqueous alkanolamines, as well as solvation and mobility of CO 2 molecules within such solvents was obtained computationally. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] However, all these studies were limited to the investigation of the pre-reaction state of CO 2 in aqueous amine solutions. During the chemical CO 2 absorption, carbamate and carbonate ions together with protonated alkanolamines are formed as products of the amine reaction with CO 2 , which then would eventually change the complex mixed solvent properties.…”
