KAWANISHI-CITY, Japan, July 3, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Metal organic framework (MOF), also known as porous
coordination polymer (PCP), are materials composed of metal cations
and organic ligands that bridge component metals. MOFs are
synthesized as super-porous materials by modifying their metal and
organic ligand, as well as the shape and size of pores. Pore size
can be controlled in less than nm order and MOF possess extremely
large specific surface area (1000 – 9000
m2/g) and their chemical group can be tailored at
the molecular level. With conventional porous materials such as
activated carbon and mesoporous silica, it was difficult to create
such exact porous structure with desired shape, pore size.
Although with MOF, one can artificially design the structure,
surface area, shape and size of the pores at the molecular
level. Because MOFs are completely new ultimate
inorganic–organic hybrid porous materials, chemical industry and
academic researchers have recently been highly focused on
them.
Various types of applications are under development with MOF
researchers in the world including gas adsorption, gas storage, gas
separation, metal adsorption, water treatment, sensors and
bio-medical use. In this regard, Green Science Alliance also
has been synthesizing various type of MOF and has been applying MOF
to rechargeable battery, fuel cell, water collection, gas
adsorption, metal adsorption, deodorizing, photo-catalysis, solid
acid catalysis and artificial photosynthesis, etc.
However, tedious and low efficiency of MOF synthesis procedure
always have been a problematic issue and preventing from real
application of MOF based device.
This time, Mr. Tetsuro Kajino and
Dr. Ryohei Mori have developed new
synthesis procedure which can be apply to MOF mass production, so
that price of MOF can be expected to be cheaper than current
price. Green Science Alliance will use this cheaper version
of MOF to be apply to their battery, fuel cell, solid catalyst,
water harvesting, artificial photosynthesis, etc. for their
internal business and also, looking for the opportunity to supply
to MOF customers in the world for real industrial
application.
