Diffusion Research with Nanoporous Material

Abstract Owing to their potential for eco-friendly matter upgrading by molecular sieving and shape-selective conversion, nanoporous materials are among the pioneers of green chemistry. The performance application is often controlled diffusion, i.e. rate mass transfer within these materials. This transfer, however, rather complex subject numerous influences. Unambiguous diffusion measurement has thus remained a challenge this day with errors in interpretation experimental data being all too common. present feature reports efforts an IUPAC initiative overcome limitations.
