Abstract

Converting amine-rich compounds into highly effective carbon dioxide (CO2) sorbents requires a better understanding and control of their properties. The reaction of fullerene C60 with polyethyleneimine converts the polymer into a high-performance CO2 sorbent. In this study, experimental evidence is...
