Quo Vadis, MOF?

Abstract: Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) show world records in BET surface and specific pore volume. An impressive number of different MOF structures has been developed in the last 15 years. In numerous reviews, MOFs are predicted to substitute zeolites and other molecular sieves in big adsorption, permeation and heterogeneous catalysis applications. This short review critically highlights some prominent MOF properties like pore volume and BET surface. It is predicted, that commercialization of MOFs will takes place fi… Show more

“…Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are nanoporous crystalline materials that consist of metal nodes connected via organic linker molecules [1]. Due to the combination of long-range order, highly tunable organic-inorganic structural units, and intrinsic nanoporosity [2], the use of MOFs has been investigated in numerous fields, including but not limited to catalysis [3,4], storage and release of gases [5][6][7], molecular separation [8,9], drug delivery [10][11][12], and membranes for desalination [13].…”

“…Generally, the performance of membrane separation is determined by two factors: selectivity (also called the separation factor for membranes) and permeability (representing the flux). MOFs are a strong competitor in the field of membrane separation because of their high porosity, adjustable pore size, and functionalization. , In comparison to conventional MOF membranes made by solvothermal methods, the thickness of SURMOF membranes can be straightforwardly controlled . SURMOFs with AB side groups fabricated on a mesoporous support can be used as photoswitchable membranes, allowing the remote control of the permeability of one (or more) components, thereby changing the separation factor.…”

“…Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been applied in catalysis, 1 gas adsorption and separation, 2,3 sensing, 4 and drug delivery. 5 MOFs comprise both inorganic and organic moieties, whereby the metal ions or the metal oxo-clusters are connected to polytopic organic linkers resulting in multidimensional frameworks.…”
