High-performance nanocomposite membranes realized by efficient molecular sieving with CuBDC nanosheets

TLDR
Two-dimensional CuBDC nanosheets with high-aspect-ratios were deliberately paired with polymers possessing high free volumes to fabricate high performance gas separation membranes, resulting in performances that surpass the upper bound limit for polymer membranes.

I and i

Kevin Barraclough
- 08 Dec 2001 - 
TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Two-dimensional metal-organic framework nanosheets: synthesis and applications.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the recent advances in the synthesis of 2D MOF nanosheets by using top-down methods, e.g. sonication exfoliation, mechanical ex foliation, Li-intercalation exfoliated and chemical exfolation, and bottom-up methods, i.e. interfacial synthesis, three-layer synthesis, surfactant-assisted synthesis, modulated synthesis, and sonication synthesis.

Ultrathin metal/covalent-organic framework membranes towards ultimate separation.

TL;DR: The advanced strategies in fabricating ultrathin defect-free MOF/COF membranes such as in situ growth, contra-diffusion method, layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly, metal-based precursor as the pre-functionalized layer, interface-assisted strategy, and laminated assembly of MOF-COF nanosheets are presented.

Physical Aging, Plasticization and Their Effects on Gas Permeation in "Rigid" Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity

TL;DR: In this paper, a triptycene-based ladder polymer (TPIM-1) exhibited very large selectivity gains outweighing permeability losses after 780 days, resulting in unprecedented performance for O2/N2 (P(O2) = 61 Barrer, α(O 2/N 2) = 86) and H2/H2/NB 2 (H2 2 ) = 1105 Barrer and α(H 2/NB 3 ) = 156) separations.

Metal Organic Framework Crystals in Mixed-Matrix Membranes: Impact of the Filler Morphology on the Gas Separation Performance.

TL;DR: A new non-destructive technique based on Raman spectroscopy mapping is introduced to assess the homogeneity of the filler dispersion in the polymer matrix to determine the homogeneous of the MOF filler distribution in the polymethine matrix.
