Description of the research topic:

Metal-organic-frameworks (MOFs) are a recognized novel class of porous materials with outstandingly large adsorption capacity, which makes them excellent candidates for adsorption based applications. MOFs are also particularly promising precursors and templates for the synthesis of electrochemically active materials with micro/nanostructure. Under properly controlled synthesis conditions, metal or metal oxide/sulfide nanoparticles finely dispersed in a porous carbon matrix can be obtained.
MOFs are among the most actively investigated materials due to their controllable pore size, highly ordered structures and ultrahigh porosity. They are composed of multivalent metal ions or clusters linked together by organic ligands. These precursors self assemble to an open framework with an ordered and most often permanent pore structure. Owing to these properties MOFs and their composites are at present the materials of highest potential in adsorption based gas storage applications. They also can be used as electrodes in high capacity electrochemical storage devices.
