HKUST-1 membranes on porous supports using secondary growth
TLDR
In this article, a new seeding technique (thermal seeding) was developed to strongly anchor HKUST-1 seed crystals on porous α-alumina supports, which was found critical to have both organic ligands and copper species in the seed suspension as well as to seed the crystals at elevated temperature.Abstract:
Here we report the synthesis of continuous HKUST-1 membranes on porous supports via the secondary (i.e., seeded) growth method. A new seeding technique (“thermal seeding”) was developed to strongly anchor HKUST-1 seed crystals on porous α-alumina supports. It was found critical to have both organic ligands and copper species in the seed suspension as well as to seed the crystals at elevated temperature. The HKUST-1 seed crystals on the supports were then hydrothermally grown into continuous HKUST-1 films. The formation of cracks and fractures in the films was prevented by controlling the cooling and the drying processes after crystallization. The permeation results of HKUST-1 membranes show moderate separation of hydrogen over other small gas molecules such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, and methane.read more

Structuring of metal–organic frameworks at the mesoscopic/macroscopic scale
TL;DR: Because the key issue for structuring of MOFs is to spatially control the nucleation process in desired locations, this review conceptually categorizes the available synthetic methodologies from the viewpoint of the reaction system by categorizing them into four dimensionalities, zero-dimensional (0D), one- dimensional (1D), two-dimensional, and three-dimensional superstructures.
