Three samples of IRMOF-3 were post-synthetically functionalized with aminomethyl propanol (AMP) with three different concentrations of 25 wt, 50 wt and 75 wt to produce AMP@IRMOF-3. The structural and texture properties of AMP@IRMOF-3 were studied by FESEM, FTIR, pore size distribution, powder XRD, TGA/DTG, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, their selective CO2/CH4 adsorption behaviour over various temperatures (298.15 K, 323.15 K, and 348.15 K). The results showed an enhancement in CO2 adsorption capacity from 1.39 mmol/g to 3.90 mmol/g due to successful incorporation of CO2 philic functionalities. Furthermore, the adsorption isotherms were studied by applying Langmuir, Freundlich, Langmuir-Freundlich, and Toth isotherm models. The isotherms study revealed the unfavourable adsorption behaviour with an increase in AMP loadings with a homogenous system. © 2019 Elsevier B.V. date: 2019 publisher: Elsevier B.V. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85073012323&doi=10.1016%2fj.jngse.2019.103014&partnerID=40&md5=b84c31c5e629adb087a30188a8caffce id_number: 10.1016/j.jngse.2019.103014 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering volume: 72 refereed: TRUE issn: 18755100 citation: Ullah, S. and Bustam, M.A. and Assiri, M.A. and Al-Sehemi, A.G. and Abdul Kareem, F.A. and Mukhtar, A. and Ayoub, M. and Gonfa, G.
