What are MOF used for?

MOFs and MOF composites are mainly used for gas storage and separation, removal/separation of hazardous chemicals, heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis, sensing, drug delivery, biosensing, and some medical applications.

What are types of MOF?

The pure MOFs reported for electrochemical sensing include ZIF-67 crystallites [189] and Co-MOFs [190] for H2O2 sensing, Cu-based MOFs for glucose sensing [158,191], porphyrin MOFs for nitrite sensing [192], DNA functionalized ion-porphyrinic MOF for Pb2+ sensing [193], TMU-16-NH2 MOF for Cd2+ sensing [194], synthetic …

What is MOF and COF?

MOFs are three-dimensional materials made up of secondary building blocks comprised of metal ions/clusters and organic ligands whereas COFs are 2D or 3D highly porous organic solids made up by light elements (i.e., H, B, C, N, O).

What does MOUF mean?

mouth
Mouf is a dialectical pronunciation and spelling of mouth. It can refer to a person’s mouth, as when eating, or the metaphorical mouth of gossip (e.g., Get my name out ya mouf).

Is a metal ion organic?

Structure. MOFs are composed of two major components: a metal ion or cluster of metal ions and an organic molecule called a linker. For this reason, the materials are often referred to as hybrid organic–inorganic materials; however, this terminology has recently been explicitly discouraged.

What is the power of MOF?

Matthew’s MOFs currently hold three world records for gas storage: room temperature storage of both hydrogen and methane, and zero-degree storage of carbon dioxide. MOFs have large internal surface areas because every atom is a new surface, and they can therefore store more gas in a smaller space.

Are metal-organic frameworks expensive?

Just for reference, MOF-5 costs $200/kg, MOF-177 costs $130K/kg, and MOF-210 is assumed to be even higher (see Figure 5), comparing to MEA which only costs $2.66/kg (3,4).

How do you synthesis A MOF?

At their discovery, the method for synthesis of MOFs is solvothermal. Typically, metal precursors and organic linkers are dissolved in solvent and placed in a closed reaction vessel for the formation and self-assembly of MOF crystals.

What is reticular synthesis?

A conceptual approach that requires the use of secondary building units to direct the assembly of ordered frameworks epitomizes this process: we call this approach reticular synthesis. This chemistry has yielded materials designed to have predetermined structures, compositions and properties.

Is COF a polymer?

Structure. COFs are another class of porous polymeric materials, consisting of porous, crystalline, covalent bonds that usually have rigid structures, exceptional thermal stabilities (to temperatures up to 600 °C), are stable in water and low densities.

What is MOOF?

A moof was a creature of the galaxy that had hoofed feet, a thick hide, and secreted milk. Moof milk could be used to make yogurt. There were individuals who milked moofs, which inspired the term “moof-milker,” an insult to a person’s intelligence.
