Urotropine-based porous coordination polymers with free N-donors demonstrate selective adsorption towards acidic gas substrates (C2H2 or CO2) as confirmed by isotherm measurements and ab initio DFT calculations.

Mixed ligand metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have resolutely established themselves as a class of excellent solid state sorbents for carbon dioxide (CO2) and a proper design of such MOF can potentially improve not only the amount of CO2 adsorption, but also the selectivity of CO2 uptake over other gases and volatiles.

Although metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) or porous coordination polymers have been widely studied, their antimicrobial activities have not yet been fully investigated. In this work, antifungal activity of copper-based benzene-tricarboxylate MOF (Cu-BTC MOF), which is water stable and industrially interesting, is investigated against Candida albicans , Aspergillus niger , Aspergillus oryzae and Fusarium oxysporum . The Cu-BTC MOF can effectively inhibit the growth rate of C. albicans and remarkably inhibit the spore growth of A. niger , A. oryzae and F. oxysporum . This finding shows the potential of using Cu-BTC MOF as a strong biocidal material against representative yeasts and moulds that are commonly found in the food and agricultural industries.

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) or porous coordination polymers (PCPs) represent a tunable molecular scaffolding that can be adjusted for a breadth of applications. This presentation will concern our efforts towards tailoring MOFs towards making new proton conductors ultimately for fuel cells. A major hurdle in these technologies is an electrolyte capable of conducting protons above 100°C. Higher operating temperatures will enhance electrode kinetics and decrease electrode poisoning among several critical operational benefits. In contrast to the macromolecular approaches typically employed towards these electrolytes, we have used a MOF strategy to generate crystalline networks with acidic pores. These MOFs present options to address higher temperature conduction,1 conduction over 10-2 Scm-1,2 and water stability.3 The emphasis in the talk will concern routes to designing these systems and subsequent challenges in their characterization.
