The "nothing" (empty space) feature of porous soft materials is foundational to their properties and applications, and has been a focus of study for many years. Now, researchers from Japan have solved ...

Porous materials are widely used for gas storage, separation, catalysis, and environmental purification. Their functionality ...

Researchers have used computational design methods to develop non-metal organic porous framework materials, with potential applications in areas such as catalysis, water capture or hydrogen storage.

Several factors, such as surface area, pore size distribution, temperature, pressure, and the nature of both the gas and porous material, influence the rate and extent of gas sorption. The size and ...

Novel porous crystalline solid shows promise as an efficient and durable material for ammonia (NH3) capture and storage, report scientists. Made through a simple reprecipitation process, the proposed ...
