Abstract:Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), which are a class of porous crystalline materials formed by the self-assembly of organic and inorganic components, have received widespread interest over the past decades. Due to their extraordinarily high porosity, adjustable pore sizes, controllable surface functionality, and potential scalability, MOFs have great potential for application in areas such as gas capture and storage, sorbents, catalysis, and drug delivery. The judicious choice of both the organic and inorganic c… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
