Cross-linked, porous imidazolium-based poly(ionic liquid)s for CO₂ capture and utilisation

Abstract

A series of micro/meso porous imidazolium poly(ionic liquid)s for CO 2 capture and utilization is reported. They show moderate sorption capacity under RTP conditions, and good catalytic activity towards the cycloaddition of CO 2 and epoxides to synthesize cyclic carbonates.
