Abstract:Nitrogen-rich porous carbons prepared from zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) offer a promising platform for the effective confinement of small guest molecules. However, a key challenge within the domain of liquid-phase adsorption lies in the prevailing microporosity of ZIF-derived carbons, which impedes the diffusion of larger molecules and hinders the adsorption efficiency. In order to maximize carbon availability, methods for reshaping the particle morphology and generating mesoporosity are being dynami… 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.
