Additional information

In this collaborative effort with chemical engineers and chemists at the University of California (Los Angeles) and Northwestern University, new ultra porous and very high surface area Metal-Organic Framework (MOFs) materials were developed, one of which showed, at the time of the publication, the highest specific surface area ever recorded among all types of materials. The MOF materials reported in this paper showed exceptionally high porosities and gas (hydrogen, methane, and carbon dioxide) uptake capacities, such that world records for both porosity and carbon dioxide storage capacity were reported. This study was sponsored by the US Department of Energy.
