Abstract Widespread access to greener energy is required in order mitigate the effects of climate change. A significant barrier cleaner natural gas usage lies safety/efficiency limitations storage technology. Despite highly porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) demonstrating record-breaking gas-storage capacities, their conventionally powdered morphology renders them non-viable. Traditional powder shaping utilising high pressure or chemical binders collapses porosity creates low-density...
Tuning the water concentration in synthesis of three UiO MOFs allows crystal phase selection via ordering defects.
The metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) M(BPZNO2 ) (M=Co, Cu, Zn; H2 BPZNO2 =3-nitro-4,4'-bipyrazole) were prepared through solvothermal routes and fully investigated in the solid state. They showed good thermal stability both under a N2 atmosphere air, with decomposition temperatures peaking up to 663 K for Zn(BPZNO2 ). Their crystal structure is characterized by 3D networks square Zn) or rhombic (M=Cu) channels decorated polar NO2 groups. As revealed adsorption at 77 K, they are...
We report the synthesis of a new family four isoreticular metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) based on Cu–Cu paddle-wheel building units.
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with high surface area and thermal stability, the inner walls of which are decorated polar groups, optimal candidates for carbon capture sequestration from anthropogenic emissions (carbon storage (CCS) technology). In this research context, an emerging functional group is nitro (-NO2). A bis(pyrazolate) spacer a dangling -NO2 has been synthesised, along related CoII, CuII, ZnII MOFs. The last example in particular shows highest CO2 uptake reported to date when...
