Abstract Out of some carbon dioxide absorbents, magnesium oxide has been thought of as a practically applicable material with the help of alkaline salts in the mid-temperature range. In industrial process, 5~15 % of vapor is included in the air. This condition is thought to affect the action of magnesium oxide but has not been taken into account significantly. Herein, we set importance on figuring out how magnesium oxide is affected by vapor in real condition. For better observation, cubic shape magnesium oxide is regarded as a suitable material. Microwave-synthesis method is used to get cube magnesium oxide. We observe how cubic shape turns into depending on each cycle as the amount of vapor is fixed with 10 % portion in the furnace air. With this basis, the observation is also done when magnesium oxide is mixed with some principal promoters. Furthermore, morphology-changed magnesium oxide by vapor shows different characteristics when it reacts with carbon dioxide compared to as-synthesized cubic magnesium oxide. Details are presented in the poster.
