Abstract: | The adsorption of methanol in zeolites of the faujasite type with sodium and calcium counter ions is studied with quantum chemical methods. The zeolite is represented with a cluster model allowing calculations at the Møller-Plesset as well as the DFT level of theory. An adsorption energy of −62.4 kJ/mol is calculated at the MP2/TZVP//BP86/TZVP level of theory for one methanol molecule at one site II sodium cation. Insight into the adsorption process is obtained with a three-body decomposition which reveals a strong destabilisation of the adsorption strength by large, positive three-body terms, which is important for force field development. |
