Gas Sorption Characterization of Metal Organic Frameworks

June 23, 2020

Overview

Are you involved in Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for sorption applications? MOFs are candidates for many sorption applications due to their advantages of controllable chemical functionality, as well as ordered structure defined by virtually infinite combination of metal cluster and organic linker.

Listen to Dr. Katharina Peikert, Technical Application Consultant with Micromeritics, speak about best practices in MOFs characterization:

  • Sample preparation
  • Sample degassing
  • Surface area characterization
  • Pore size distribution characterization, and data interpretation
