“…Much of the research has incorporated CO 2 , − presumably due to its aforementioned industrial relevance. Studies incorporating other molecular species including CH 4 , − ,,,,,, H 2 S, , N 2 , ,− H 2 , ,− O 2 , CO, COS, noble gases Ar, Kr, and Xe, − and gas mixtures including CO 2 /CH 4 , ,,,, CO 2 /N 2 , flue gases, and syngas have been performed probing the structure, kinetics, intermolecular interactions, and thermal behavior of HQ crystals. Determining and understanding the adsorption selectivity of one molecule (often CO 2 ) over another is a fundamental focus of most of these studies involving mixed gases, where the selectivity is commonly rationalized in terms of differences in molecular properties (especially dipole and quadrupole moments and polarizabilities) and the electrostatic nature of the adsorbent. ,, …”
