Measurement of heat capacities and thermodynamic analysis for an anionic layer-pillared PCP
摘要
In view of the excellent C2 hydrocarbon separation performance of the anionic layer-pillared porous coordination polymer, Cu(C12H10N4)2SiF6 (NTU-65), the structure, composition, and synthetic phase purity of the material were comprehensively analyzed by elemental analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and infrared spectroscopy. To address the actual demands of potential industrial applications, the molar heat capacity of NTU-65 in the temperature range of 193–393 K was accurately determined for the first time by temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry, and the corresponding enthalpy and entropy were calculated. The thermogravimetric analysis results of the material show that the crystal structure of NTU-65 can be maintained up to 600 K, confirming its excellent thermal stability and laying a solid foundation for the transition from the laboratory to practical applications.
