Study of the dynamic adsorption process of toluene by a microporous copper metal-organic framework

Introduction: Toluene is considered as a group of chemical contaminants, causing problems for people’s health. Due to the high rate of evaporation and rapid emission in the surrounding environment, it leads to the exposure of many employees and people at risk and, subsequently, its irreparable effects on their health in different jobs. Therefore, its removal is very important. In the present st...

Fabrication of cu based metal-organic framework / graphene Nanocomposite and study electrochemical performance in supercapacitors

High conductivity and high level of electrolyte availability are the main requirements of active materials used in supercapacitors (SCs) to achieve high electrochemical efficiency. In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been used as electrode materials for SCs due to their suitability of porosity and high surface area. However, using single-component MOFs in supercapacitors resul...

Synthesis of Nanoporous Metal Organic Framework MIL-53-Cu and Its Application for Gas Separation

MIL-53-Cu has been synthesized hydrothermally and has been used for the first time for gas separation. MIL-53-Cu shows adsorption capacities of 8.1, 0.7 and 0.5 m.mol/g, respectively, for CH4, CO2 and H2 at 30 bar and 298 K. The high CH4 adsorption capacity of MIL-53-Cu maybe attributed to the high pore volume and large number of open metal sites....

Hydrogen adsorption in an interpenetrated dynamic metal-organic framework.

A metal-organic framework Zn(NDC)(4,4'-Bpe)(0.5).xG [NDC = 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate; 4,4'-Bpe = 4,4'-trans-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene; G = guest molecules] has been synthesized, structurally characterized, and rationalized to be a two-interpenetrated elongated primitive cubic net. Powder X-ray diffraction and adsorption studies reveal the dynamic feature of the framework, which can take up hydr...

Metal-organic framework materials as nano photocatalyst

Photocatalytic degradation of toxic organic compound in water, soil and air by semiconductor catalysts such as TiO2 and ZnO have received much attention over the last two decades. However, the low quantum yield, easy agglomeration and difficult post-separation of these inorganic catalysts limit their application for large-scale applications. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are the latest class ...
