Fig. 2

a Samples pretreated at 623 K under high vacuum (106 kPa) prior to measurement and b at 27.2 kPa CO2 equilibrium. Color code: purple for silanol sites interacting with cations, blue for isolated and weakly hydrogen-bonded, yellow for moderately hydrogen-bonded, and red for strongly hydrogen-bonded silanol sites. Peak assignment: isolated silanol sites 3740 cm1, υ3 + υ1 of CO2 at 3700 cm1, and υ3 + 2υ2 of CO2 at 3595 cm1.
