QUB spin-out to commercialize to technique for production of MOFs; storage for natural gas vehicles

Green Car Congress

Chemists at Queen’s University Belfast (Ireland) have devised a novel environmentally friendly technique which allows the rapid production of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). MOFs have the highest surface-areas of any known materials; this incredibly high surface area means that MOFs are very good at storing gases. Pichon et al.
