The obtained adsorbents were tested for CO2 adsorption with a mixture of CO2/N2 having 5â??15 CO2 using a fixed bed adsorption column at atmospheric pressure. A maximum adsorption capacity of 2.87 mmol/g was achieved for the sample with degree of grafting of 300 and degree of amination of 94 at feed concentration of 15 at 30 °C. This was accompanied by good mechanical characteristics and a very high amine efficiency that reached 75 at room temperature, suggesting that the obtained fibrous adsorbent has high potential for CO2 adsorption. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd ID - scholars11750 KW - Acrylic monomers; Adsorbents; Adsorption; Amines; Atmospheric pressure; Grafting (chemical); Nanofibers; Polypropylenes KW - Adsorption capacities; CO2 adsorption; Feed concentration; Fixed-bed adsorption; Glycidyl methacrylate; Mechanical characteristics; Radiation-induced grafting; Syndiotactic polypropylene KW - Carbon dioxide KW - adsorbent; amine; carbon dioxide; ethanolamine; glycidyl methacrylate; methacrylic acid derivative; nanofiber; nitrogen; polyolefin; polypropylene; unclassified drug KW - adsorption; amination; Article; atmospheric pressure; biomechanics; concentration (parameters); controlled study; electrospinning; radiation; room temperature EP - 66 PB - Elsevier Ltd SN - 0969806X N1 - cited By 23 TI - Amine functionalized radiation induced grafted polyolefin nanofibers for CO2 adsorption SP - 58 AV - none ER -
