Arts & Sciences Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is a useful structural tool, with a high sensitivity to the local atomic-scale environment providing a powerful probe of structure, disorder, and dynamics of solids. In this dissertation, solid-state NMR was used to characterize chemisorbed products of solid amine sorbents exposed to CO2. Solid amine sorbents are promising candidates to capture CO2 for the purposes of mitigation of this greenhouse gas in high-concentration sources, such as flue gases emitted from power plants or industrial sites. Understanding the adsorption process of these solid materials is critical to help design better materials to have a higher CO2 uptake.
