Heterogeneous catalysts based on mesoporous metal–organic frameworks

TL;DR: Mesopores in MOFs can decline mass transfer and exchange resistance in a confined space, leading to the improvement of their catalytic performances as mentioned in this paper, but it is challenging to synthesize and apply meso-MOFs for catalysis owing to the requirement of a combination of good chemical stability and large pore size.
