The Ba-CMK-3(x) (x was the Ba(NO₃)₂:CMK-3 mass ratio and equals to 5, 10, and 15 wt%) samples were prepared by the incipient impregnation method, which were used for the adsorption of NO + O₂ at room temperature. The samples were characterized by the XRD, BET, TEM, TPD, TG, and DRIFTS techniques. The results showed that the CMK-3 and Ba-CMK-3(x) samples possessed an ordered two-dimensional hexagonal mesoporous structure, and Ba was uniformly dispersed on the surface of CMK-3. After Ba doping, the surface areas and pore size distributions of the Ba-CMK-3(x) samples were altered due to the synergistic effect of partial blocking of the channels by Ba and partial etching of the carbon materials by O₂ produced from Ba(NO₂)₃ decomposition at high temperatures. The sequence in NO adsorption capacity was Ba-CMK-3(10) (108.1 ± 0.55 mg/g) > Ba-CMK-3(15) (106.2 ± 0.72 mg/g) > Ba-CMK-3(5) (102.3 ± 1.33 mg/g) > CMK-3(88.8 ± 1.15 mg/g), with the Ba-CMK-3(10) sample showing the best (NO + O₂) adsorption performance. We proposed the two main adsorption pathways in the process of NO adsorption: (i) NO reacted with O₂ to form NO₂, part of NO₂ were weakly adsorbed on the surface hydroxyl groups, part of NO₂ were adsorbed to form the nitrite and nitrate species, and the left NO₂ was disproportionated to the NO, NO₂⁻, and NO₃⁻ species; and (ii) NO was directly oxidized to the NO₂⁻ species by the oxygen-containing functional groups in carbon, and then some of the NO₂⁻ species were transformed to the NO₃⁻ species directly or via disproportionation. The regeneration efficiencies of the Ba-CMK-3(x) samples were slightly inferior to that of the CMK-3 sample.
