Description

Key Properties & Advantages
NanoMOF-Al100??s exceptional performance stems from its tailored nanoscale structure and aluminum-based chemistry:

High Surface Area & Porosity: Features a large BET surface area (typically 1500?C2000 m2/g) with a well-defined porous network (pore size range: 0.5?C2 nm), maximizing active sites for gas adsorption and enabling efficient molecular diffusion.
Nanoscale Particle Size: Ultra-fine particles enhance surface-to-volume ratio, accelerating adsorption kinetics and improving mass transport??critical for rapid gas storage and separation processes.
Exceptional Chemical Stability: Maintains structural integrity across a wide pH range (3?C12) in aqueous solutions, resists degradation in organic solvents, and withstands temperatures up to 300??C (inert atmosphere). This stability ensures durability in harsh industrial environments.
Low Toxicity & Aluminum-Based Safety: Aluminum??s inherent low toxicity makes it suitable for applications requiring biocompatibility or minimal environmental impact, distinguishing it from MOFs based on heavy metals (e.g., chromium, iron).
Tunable Selectivity: Supports post-synthetic modification (e.g., ligand functionalization, pore size adjustment) to tailor adsorption affinity for specific gases (e.g., CO? over N?, H? over CH?) or target molecules, enhancing precision in separation processes.
Core Applications
Gas Storage for Clean Energy
NanoMOF-Al100??s high porosity and stability make it ideal for storing energy-dense gases:

Hydrogen Storage: Efficiently adsorbs H? at low temperatures and moderate pressures, supporting the development of hydrogen fuel systems by enabling safe, compact storage.
Methane/Natural Gas Storage: Captures and releases CH? with high capacity, facilitating the use of natural gas as a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels in transportation and power generation.
Carbon Capture & Greenhouse Gas Separation
CO? Capture: Selectively adsorbs CO? from flue gases, biogas, or ambient air, aiding in carbon reduction efforts. Its stability allows for repeated adsorption-desorption cycles with minimal performance loss.
Gas Mixture Separation: Separates greenhouse gas mixtures (e.g., CO?/CH?) and industrial gas streams (e.g., C?H?/C?H?), improving the efficiency of fuel purification and industrial processes.
Molecular Separation
Small Molecule Sieving: Precisely separates molecules based on size and polarity, making it useful for purifying solvents, separating isomers, or isolating valuable chemicals in pharmaceutical and petrochemical industries.
Air Purification: Removes volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and toxic gases (e.g., H?S, SO?) from air streams, enhancing indoor air quality and industrial emissions control.

Quality Assurance
Each batch of NanoMOF-Al100 undergoes rigorous testing to ensure consistency:

X-ray diffraction (XRD) to confirm structural integrity and phase purity.
Nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis to verify surface area and pore size distribution.
Gas adsorption testing (e.g., CO?, H?) to validate capacity and selectivity.
Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) to confirm thermal stability.

A certificate of analysis (CoA) is provided with each order, documenting batch-specific performance metrics.
