A data-driven perspective on the colours of metal-organic frameworks

Berend Smit, Luc Patiny, Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Kevin Maik Jablonka, Mehrdad Asgari, Christopher Patrick Ireland

Colour is at the core of chemistry and has been fascinating humans since ancient times. It is also a key descriptor of optoelectronic properties of materials and is often used to assess the success of a synthesis. However, predicting the colour of a materi ...

Toward Optimal Photocatalytic Hydrogen Generation from Water Using Pyrene-Based Metal-Organic Frameworks

Berend Smit, Mehrdad Asgari, Christopher Patrick Ireland, Andres Adolfo Ortega Guerrero, Fatma Pelin Uran, Özge Kadioglu

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising materials for the photocatalytic H-2 evolution reaction (HER) from water. To find the optimal MOF for a photocatalytic HER, one has to consider many different factors. For example, studies have emphasized the i ...

Mechanistic Study on Thermally Induced Lattice Stiffening of ZIF-8

Wendy Lee Queen, Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Pascal Alexander Schouwink, Jian Hao, Mehrdad Asgari, Deepu Joseph Babu, Qi Liu

The flexibility of the ZIF-8 aperture, which inhibits a molecular cutoff of 3.4 angstrom, can be reduced by rapid heat treatment to obtain CO2-selective membranes. However, the early stages of the structural, morphological, and chemical changes responsible ...

Synergistic material and process development: Application of a metal-organic framework, Cu-TDPAT, in single-cycle hydrogen purification and CO2 capture from synthesis gas

Wendy Lee Queen, Mehrdad Asgari

We employ a synergistic material and process development strategy to improve the performance of a single-cycle vacuum pressure swing adsorption (VPSA) process for the hydrogen purification and the CO2 separation from reforming-based hydrogen synthesis. Bas ...

A Two Step Postsynthetic Modification Strategy: Appending Short Chain Polyamines to Zn-NH2-BDC MOF for Enhanced CO2 Adsorption

Wendy Lee Queen, Jordi Espin Marti, Mehrdad Asgari, Olga Trukhina, Ilia Kochetygov, Anita Justin

Functionalizing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with amines is a commonly used strategy to enhance their performance in CO2 capture applications. As such, in this work, a two-step strategy to covalently functionalize NH2-containing MOFs with short chain po ...

Efficient production of polymer-grade propylene from the propane/ propylene binary mixture using Cu-MOF-74 framework

Mehrdad Asgari

We employ the Cu-MOF-74 framework for the separation of a propane/propylene mixed stream. Performing single and binary component breakthrough experiments demonstrates that this framework has a greater capacity and affinity for propylene relative to propane ...

A metal-organic framework/polymer derived catalyst containing single-atom nickel species for electrocatalysis

Wendy Lee Queen, Emad Oveisi, Wen Luo, Daniel Teav Sun, Shuliang Yang, Li Peng, Jie Zhang, Mehrdad Asgari, Olga Trukhina, Dragos-Constantin Stoian

While metal-organic frameworks (MOF) alone offer a wide range of structural tunability, the formation of composites, through the introduction of other non-native species, like polymers, can further broaden their structure/property spectrum. Here we demonst ...

Enhancing MOF performance through the introduction of polymer guests

Wendy Lee Queen, Jordi Espin Marti, Daniel Teav Sun, Shuliang Yang, Mehrdad Asgari, Li Peng, Olga Trukhina, Ilia Kochetygov, Vikram Vinayak Karve, Anita Justin

In this contribution, recent advances in the construction of MOF-polymer composites and their corresponding applications are briefly reviewed. The appearance of such architectures is becoming prominent in recent literature, due to the fact that the union o ...

Characterization of metal organic frameworks of interest for gas adsorption/separation applications

Mehrdad Asgari

Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are a class of porous materials that are applicable in many energy and environmentally relevant areas, due to their unique features including unprecedented internal surface areas and easy chemical tunability. Gas separation ...
