“…Their slower adsorption and lower uptakes at 30 °C suggest that 10 : 1 (V) and 25 : 1 (V) are limited in their adsorption potential by a diffusional barrier; however, increasing temperature results in decreased hydrogen bonding between polyamine chains and higher chain mobility, enabling CO 2 to overcome this diffusion resistance, and uptake increases, as has been frequently observed for PEI-based CO 2 adsorbents. 23,24,27,56 From 30 °C to 60 °C, the maximum adsorption of 10 : 1 (V) increases by 12.47% (relative to adsorption at 30 °C), while 25 : 1 (V) improves by more than twice that at 29.00%. Although 25 : 1 (V) has better absolute adsorption capacity, 10 : 1 (V) may be experiencing relatively less diffusion resistance at 30 °C, which may suggest a structure that better enables gas transport.…”
