Global warming is caused by anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the atmosphere, and different options have been proposed to mitigate CO2 emissions, where CO2 separation plays an important role. To develop cost-effective technologies for CO2 separation, immobilizing ionic liquids (ILs) into porous materials demonstrates potential. Different ILs are strategically immobilized into different porous materials like MOFs, activated carbons, pops, and silica, resulting in IL-porous composites with the functional properties of the pristine porous materials and the peculiar physicochemical of the immobilized ILs. These progressive developments reveal novel opportunities in separation science.In this review, we discuss the functionalization of ILs for CO2 separation. We also highlight several porous materials, such as MOFs, carbon nanotubes, zeolites, carbonaceous materials, and graphene. Finally, we demonstrate the development of hybrid ionic materials composed of ILs and porous materials, especially MOFs, to provide a perspective on the potential of ILs/porous material composites for CO2 separation. The most significant opportunities and challenges in ILs/porous materials as well as their synthesis methods, characterization techniques, applications, and future possibilities are thoroughly explored to develop a roadmap for CO2 separation. Considering future developments in this field, the design and development of these innovative hybrid materials and their potential to replace conventional materials are also carefully evaluated.

The escalating global concern about the expansion of CO2 emissions and its profound consequences on climate change underscores the critical need for robust CO2 capture materials. The core objective of this review was to conduct a comprehensive survey of recent advancements in CO2 capture, with a focus on porous materials, including metal-organic frameworks, zeolitic imidazolate frameworks, zeolites, metal oxides/metalloids, porous polymers, derived carbons, and (biochar, sludge, ash), as documented in the reported studies from 2017 onwards. By considering the CO2 adsorption capacity as the most important property, an up-to-date database of CO2 capture capacities in various porous adsorbents was provided, and other properties, such as selectivity, surface area, pore size/volume, recyclability, etc., for the promising adsorbents were further discussed. Furthermore, the issues on the mechanism, commercial viability (adsorbents cost and upscaling), environmental concerns and future directions (3D printing, artificial intelligence) were discussed. This review serves as an invaluable resource, guiding future investigations in this field and contributing to ongoing efforts to mitigate CO2 emissions.

Gold is generally considered a noble metal since it is inherently inert in its bulk state. However, gold demonstrates reactivity when it is in its ionic state. The inherent inertness of bulk gold has resulted in its widespread recognition as a vital raw material in various biomedical processes. The applications of these technologies include drug delivery microchips, dental prostheses, reconstructive surgery, culinary additives, and cardiovascular stents. Gold can also exist in molecules or ions, particularly gold ions, which facilitates the production of gold nanomaterials. In this paper, we have computed differential and integral operators by using the M-Polynomial of gold crystals and by utilizing this polynomial, we have also computed eleven topological indices like 1st Zagreb, 2nd Zagreb, Hyper, Sigma, Second Modified, General Randic, General Reciprocal Randic, 3rd Redefined Zagreb, Symmetric Division Degree, Harmonic, Inverse Sum indices for the structure of Gold crystal.

High hardness, low friction coefficient and chemical resistance are only a few of the exceptional mechanical qualities of diamond. Diamonds can be artificially created to have different levels of conductivity, or they can be single, micro or nanocrystalline and highly electrically insulating. It also has high biocompatibility and is famous for being mechanically robust. Due to its high hardness, lack of ductility and difficulty in welding, diamond is a challenging material to construct devices with. Diamonds have experienced a rise in attention as a biological material in recent decades due to new synthesis and fabrication techniques that have eliminated some of these disadvantages. In general, entropic measurements are used for investigating the chemical or biological properties of molecular structures. This study calculates several important K-Banhatti entropies, redefined Zagreb entropies and atom-bond sum connectivity entropy for diamond crystals. We also present a numeric and graphical explanations of obtain indices.

Owing to the rapid increase in anthropogenic emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere, which has resulted in a number of global climate challenges, a decrease in CO2 emissions is urgently needed in the current scenario. This study focuses on the development and characterization of composites for carbon dioxide (CO2) separation. The composites consist of two task-specific ionic liquids (TSILs), namely, tetramethylgunidinium imidazole [TMGHIM] and tetramethylgunidinium phenol [TMGHPhO], impregnated in ZIF-8. The performance of CO2 separation, including sorption capacity and selectivity, was evaluated for pristine ZIF-8 and composites of TMGHIM@ZIF-8 and TMGHPhO@ZIF-8. To demonstrate the thermal stability of the material, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was performed. Additionally, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were utilized to showcase the crystal structures and morphology. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and BET were also utilized to confirm the successful incorporation of TSILs into ZIF-8. The composite synthesized with TMGHIM@ZIF-8 demonstrated superior CO2 sorption performance as compared with TMGHPhO@ZIF-8. This is attributed to its strong attraction toward CO2, resulting in a higher CO2/CH4 selectivity of 110 while pristine MOFs showed 12 that is 9 times higher than that of the pristine ZIF-8. These TSILs@ZIF-8 composites have significant potential in designing sorbent materials for efficient acid gas separation applications.

Gold is widely recognized as a noble metal due to its inherent inertness in its bulk form. Nevertheless, gold exhibits reactivity in its ionic form. The inert qualities of bulk gold have led to its extensive recognition as a fundamental raw ingredient in several biomedical processes. These applications encompass drug delivery microchips, dental prostheses, reconstructive surgery, food additives, and endovascular stents. Gold in large amounts can be thought of as safe. Gold can also exist as molecules or ions, specifically gold ions, making it easier to make gold nanomaterials. The distinctive characteristics of gold set it apart from its molecular or bulk states, making its execution a very efficient instrument in the field of nanomedicine. Some of these traits are ease of synthesis, a higher ratio of surface area to volume, more reactive particles, the ability to withstand changes to the surface, and strong optical properties. The reduced reverse degree-based polynomials and topological descriptors of the molecular structure of the gold crystal are investigated in this manuscript. The numerical and graphical analysis of outcomes this study are also described.

Silicon carbide is a captivating semiconductor material for electrical and electro-optical applications requiring high temperatures. Silicon carbide is a crucial non-oxide ceramic with a wide range of uses in manufacturing. It has special properties like high rigidity and durability, heat and chemical constancy, a high melting point, oxidation resistance, powerful erosion resistance, etc. Due to all of these properties, silicon carbide is the perfect material for high-power, high-temperature electrical devices as well as erosion and cutting purposes. Silicon carbide materials are frequently used in different fields of nuclear materials and semiconductor materials because of their outstanding radiation resistance, thermal conductivity, oxidation resistance, and mechanical strength.

These models provide scientists with a new way of estimating physicochemical properties.

Based on topological descriptors, QSPR analysis is an incredibly helpful statistical method for examining many physical and chemical properties of compounds without demanding costly and time-consuming laboratory tests. Firstly, we discuss and provide research on kidney cancer drugs using topological indices and done partition of the edges of kidney cancer drugs which are based on the degree. Secondly, we examine the attributes of nineteen drugs casodex, eligard, mitoxanrone, rubraca, and zoladex, etc and among others, using linear QSPR model. The study in the article not only demonstrates a good correlation between TIs and physical characteristics with the QSPR model being the most suitable for predicting complexity, enthalpy, molar refractivity, and other factors and a best-fit model is attained in this study. This theoretical approach might benefit chemists and professionals in the pharmaceutical industry to forecast the characteristics of kidney cancer therapies. This leads towards new opportunities to paved the way for drug discovery and the formation of efficient and suitable treatment options in therapeutic targeting. We also employed multicriteria decision making techniques like COPRAS and PROMETHEE-II for ranking of said disease treatment drugs and physicochemical characteristics.
