The CO2 adsorption characteristics of a pillared 2-dimensional porous silicate material impregnated with amine containing polymers have been investigated. It Was determined that the introduction of amine polymer deteriorates the CO2, capture kinetics of the MCM-36 supported amine adsorbents compared to that of the bare material, due to the fact that with the addition of a higher loading of amine polymer the diffusion of CO2 through the 2-dimensional interlayer mesoporous channels of MCM-36 becomes greatly hindered: This pore blocking sets an upper limit to the CO2 capture performance of the polymer impregnated MCM-36 and greatly reduces the utility of using this sort of amine solid adsorbent for carbon capture. Interestingly, these results suggest that for 2-D channel solid supports there is an optimal amine loading which is not likely to be equal to the maximum loading, and Which can be determined and utilized to obtain the maximum improvement over the original materials: The study performed in this work for the MCM-36 material could therefore be applied to other porous supports to determine these Optimum loadings and be used to more easily compare and contrast the alterations to capture characteristics which occur upon amine loading for a wide range of materials. It is believed this will make it more straightforward to determine which solid supports hold the promise for greatly improved capture characteristics upon amine loading and allow the field to more quickly determine avenues for fruitful development. These results also suggest the need for a new sort of support structure for amine loaded solids, one which can allow us to decouple amine loading from increasing diffusion resistance so that high amine efficiency can be maintained throughout the range of increased amine loadings.
