“…Recently, separation potential has been reported as a combined metric of selectivity and adsorption capacity, which reflects the maximum productivity. Notably, Co(AIN) 2 exhibited a superior separation potential (116.03 cm 3 g –1 ) for C 2 H 6 /C 2 H 4 (1:15, v/v) at 1 bar, exceeding those of even the most C 2 H 6 -selective MOFs, such as CPM-733 (100.76 cm 3 g –1 ), MIL-53(Al)-FA (65.10 cm 3 g –1 ), MAF-49 (68.89 cm 3 g –1 ), MUF-15 (72.72 cm 3 g –1 ), Cu(Qc) 2 (42.73 cm 3 g –1 ), Ni(bdc)(ted) 0.5 (39.76 cm 3 g –1 ), NIIC-20-Bu (80.57 cm 3 g –1 ), Ni(IN) 2 (85.33 cm 3 g –1 ), and Ni1-a (71.64 cm 3 g –1 ). ,,,,− The separation potential and C 2 H 6 uptake amount at 62.5 mbar for C 2 H 6 -selective MOF adsorbents and Co(AIN) 2 are displayed in Figure b. Thus, the recorded C 2 H 6 uptake of Co(AIN) 2 under industrial pressure was exceptionally high and its separation potential was extremely competitive among the top-performing C 2 H 6 -selective MOFs, suggesting that Co(AIN) 2 does indeed show considerable potential for the separation applications of actual gas mixtures.…”
