Selective Ethane/Ethylene Separation in a Robust Microporous Hydrogen-Bonded Organic Framework
Open accessAbstract
The separation of ethane (C 2 H 6 ) from ethylene (C 2 H 4 ) is of prime importance in the production of polymer-grade C 2 H 4 for industrial manufacturing. It is very challenging and still remains unexploited to fully realize efficient C 2 H 6 /C 2 H 4 separation in the emerging hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) due to the weak nature of hydrogen bonds. We herein report the benchmark example of a novel ultrarobust HOF adsorbent (termed as HOF-76a) with a Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area exceeding 1100 m 2 g –1, exhibiting the preferential binding of C 2 H 6 over C 2 H 4 and thus highly selective separation of C 2 H 6 /C 2 H 4 . Theoretical calculations indicate the key role of the nonpolar surface and the suitable triangular channel-like pores in HOF-76a to sterically “match” better with the nonplanar C 2 H 6 molecule than the planar C 2 H 4, thus affording overall stronger multipoint van der Waals interactions with C 2 H 6 . The exceptional separation performance of HOF-76a for C 2 H 6 /C 2 H 4 separation was clearly demonstrated by gas adsorption isotherms, ideal adsorbed solution theory calculations, and simulated and experimental breakthrough curves. Breakthrough experiments on HOF-76a reveal that polymer-grade ethylene gas can be straightforwardly produced from 50/50 (v/v) C 2 H 6 /C 2 H 4 mixtures during the first adsorption cycle with a high productivity of 7.2 L/kg at 298 K and 1.01 bar and 18.8 L/kg at 298 K and 5.0 bar, respectively.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
