Metal–organic frameworks for H2and CH4storage: insights on the pore geometry–sorption energetics relationship
Keyword(s):
This study aims to assess the possibility of improving H2and CH4binding affinity to the aromatic walls of a designed new Metal–Organic Framework (MOF) through simultaneous dispersive interactions. It is suggested here that desirable H2and CH4storage media at low pressures require narrow uniform pores associated with large surface area, a trade-off that is challenging to achieve.
