Oxygen-Trapping Composite of MOF and Helper Molecule Holds Potential for Energy Applications

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are low-cost materials that are capable of separating gases from air and other combined gas streams. When it comes to separating oxygen, these materials fail completely. To resolve this issue, researchers have developed a MOF composite and a helper molecule, where both work together to isolate oxygen from other types of gases in a simple and cost-effective way.
