How Do MOFs and Zeolites Contribute to Gas Storage and Separation?
MOFs and zeolites are two of the most studied materials in the field of gas storage and separation due to their unique properties. MOFs consist of metal ions coordinated to organic ligands, forming a porous structure that can be customized for specific gas interactions. Zeolites, on the other hand, are microporous minerals that can trap gas molecules within their cavities. The catalytic properties of these materials can be tuned by modifying their chemical composition and structure, thereby enhancing their gas storage and separation performance.
