The article reports preparation and characterization of CO 2 adsorbents based on hyperbranched polyamines and polyglycerols. Hyperbranched polyglycerol containing primary amine groups (A-HBPG) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) showed to be effective in CO 2 capture from the ambient air. Adsorbents based on those polymers were stable for at least 17 adsorption/desorption cycles provided the desorption was performed in oxygen free atmosphere. Amine containing hyperbranched polymers are promising materials for CO 2 capture.
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.
