NIST only participates in the February and August reviews.
Porous framework materials (e.g., metal-organic frameworks, hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks etc.) are promising candidates for many gas storage and separation applications. Rational design of new materials requires fundamental mechanistic understanding of the gas-framework interaction. Neutron diffraction and spectroscopy techniques are used to investigate the gas adsorption in a variety of porous framework materials. The experimental findings, combined with theoretical calculations, provide us highly valuable mechanistic insights on gas storage and separation in these materials.
