Abstract

In this study, the adsorption capacity of single-walled carbon nanotubes (CN Ts based on cyclopentadienyl iron dicarbonyl dimer) arrays towards pure N2 gas was investigated experimentally and computationally at 77 K and in the pressure range from 0.01 to 1 atm. The experimental work represents gravimetric surface excess adsorption measurements of each gas studied on this nanomaterial. Commercial samples of CNTs based on pure CNTs, which were systematically prepared and initially characterized, were used to evaluate their adsorption capacity. The BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) equation was adopted to estimate the overall adsorption isotherm based on the experimental surface excess adsorption data for each studied system.
