Using Molecular Simulation To Characterise Metal–organic Frameworks For Adsorption Applications

Transcript

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) constitute one of the most exciting recent developments in nanoporous materials, with many potential adsorption applications such as gas storage or separation as described in other articles in this issue. The major advantage of MOFs over more traditional porous materialsis the greater scope for tailoring these materials for specific applications, which is feasible because of their modular synthesis.1
