Synthesis of metal-organic frameworks by continuous flow (2014)
Journal Article

A continuous flow process for the synthesis of a metal-organic framework using only water as the reaction medium and requiring only short residence times is described. This affords a new route to scale-up of materials incorporating many of the princi... Read More about Synthesis of metal-organic frameworks by continuous flow.

Methane adsorption in metal-organic frameworks containing nanographene linkers: a computational study (2014)
Journal Article

Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials are known to be amenable to expansion through elongation of the parent organic linker. For a family of model (3,24)-connected MOFs with the rht topology, in which the central part of organic linker comprises a...

Tuning the interactions between electron spins in fullerene-based triad systems (2014)
Journal Article

A series of six fullerene-linker-fullerene triads have been prepared by the stepwise addition of the fullerene cages to bridging moieties thus allowing the systematic variation of fullerene cage (C60 or C70) and linker (oxalate or terephthalate) and...

Inelastic neutron scattering study of binding of para-hydrogen in an ultra-microporous metal-organic framework (2014)
Journal Article

Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials show promise for H2 storage and it is widely predicted by computational modelling that MOFs incorporating ultra-micropores are optimal for H2 binding due to enhanced overlapping potentials. We report the invest... Read More about Inelastic neutron scattering study of binding of para-hydrogen in an ultra-microporous metal-organic framework.

Studies on metal-organic frameworks of Cu(II) with isophthalate linkers for hydrogen storage (2014)
Journal Article

Hydrogen (H2) is a promising alternative energy carrier due to its environmental benefits, high energy density and its abundance. However, development of a practical storage system to enable the “Hydrogen Economy” remains a huge challenge. Metal-orga...
