The Effect of Framework Flexibility on Diffusion of Small Molecules in the Metal-Organic Framework IRMOF-1
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many efforts have been made to model adsorption and diffusion processes in metalorganic frameworks (MOFs) in the past several years. In most of these studies, the framework has been kept rigid. In this study, we examine the effect of using a flexible framework model on the self-diffusion coefficients and activation energies calculated for several short n-alkanes and benzene in IRMOF-1 from molecular dynamics simulations. We find only minor differences between flexible and rigid framework results. The selfdiffusion coefficients calculated in the flexible framework are 20-50% larger than the ones calculated in the rigid framework, and the activation energies differ by only 1020%.

New isoreticular metal-organic framework materials for high hydrogen storage capacity.
We propose new isoreticular metal-organic framework (IRMOF) materials to increase the hydrogen storage capacity at room temperature. Based on the potential-energy surface of hydrogen molecules on IRMOF linkers and the interaction energy between hydrogen molecules, we estimate the saturation value of hydrogen sorption capacity at room temperature. We discuss design criteria and propose new IRMOF...
