Synthetic route for the [4[2+3]+6]cage molecule. Credit: Nature Synthesis (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s44160-024-00531-7 A new type of porous material that can store carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases ...

Chemists detail a new porous material that is less expensive and more sustainable. For a broad range of industries, separating gases is an important part of both process and product -- from separating ...

Jessica Rimsza, a materials engineer at Sandia National Laboratories, sees untapped potential in what most people see as waste. Food scraps, manure and sewage are natural byproducts of the U.S.

Milestones of porous materials with monomodal pore structures (Porous materials 1.0): (a) new zeolite topology, (b) organic zeolites, (c) mesoporous materials, and (d) extra-large pore zeolites.

With the rapid development of material science and manufacturing science, a large number of complex structures have been designed, manufactured and applied in the industrial field. Most of the current ...

Today, the dominant, though energy-intensive method for capturing carbon dioxide for storage involves bubbling industrial emissions through liquid amines. MOFs and other porous materials are promising ...

For 25 years, chemists have been finding applications that take advantage of the extreme surface areas of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). In just 1 g of some of these porous materials, the areas can ...
