First, the adsorption of ZnO on H2BDC resulted in examining binding energies, the charge transfer, density of states, dipole moments and adsorption geometries were investigated. The binding properties have been calculated and investigated theoretically for ZnO-doped H2BDC in terms of binding energies, band structures, Mulliken charges, and density of states (DOSs). According to obtained results, the H2BDC was strongly doped with ZnO. H2 and CO2 adsorption capacities for ZnO-doped H2BDC are significantly enhanced while there are low adsorption capacities for H2BDC. According to results, at least in the organic ligand of the MOF-5, the highest and lowest adsorption of CO2 (or H2) is attributed to the T-MOF-5 and C-MOF-5 respectively. Our calculations reveal that ZnO-doped H2BDC system (T-MOF-5) has much higher adsorption energy and higher net charge transfer value than pristine H2BDC (C-MOF-5). Also by changing in structure from cubic to tetragonal, the main site for H2 and CO2 adsorption was changed.}, keywords = {Adsorption,CO2,DFT,H2,MOF-5,ZnO}, url = {https://www.jwent.net/article_30952.html}, eprint = {https://www.jwent.net/article_30952_32214ecd9f43a7274e6f65e7a63a9af6.pdf} }
