Doping [Ru(bpy)3]2+ into metal-organic framework to facilitate the separation and reuse of noble-metal photosensitizer during CO2 photoreduction

Enhancement of Methane Adsorption by Lithium Doping into Metal-Organic Framework Cu-BDC

Copper (II) carboxylate, (Cu-BDC), metal-organic-framework (MOF) has been synthesized undersolvothermalconditions and used as a new adsorbent for the methane. The Lithium doping intoCu-BDC, (Li-Cu-BDC), is made by impregnating Cu-BDC with an ethanol solution ofLiNO3, followed by heat treatment in vacuum. The adsorbent was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared ...

CO2-Selective Nanoporous Metal-Organic Framework Microcantilevers

Nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) microcantilevers are fabricated and MIL-53 (Al) metal-organic framework (MOF) layers are directly synthesized on each cantilever surface by using the aluminum oxide as the metal ion source. Exposure of the MIL53-AAO cantilevers to various concentrations of CO2, N2, CO, and Ar induces changes in their deflections and resonance frequencies. The results of th...

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....

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 ...
