ABSTRACT
In
summary, this work presented a compelling study of employing a flexible-robust
MOF to achieve highly efficient C3F6/C3F8 separation
through a temperature-modulated gating mechanism. Here, they emphasize the
important role of temperature-dependent gate-opening adsorption behavior and
elucidate the host-guest interactions through a combination of experimental,
single-crystal structural, and theoretical computational analyses. This finding
provides a valuable idea for harnessing the flexibility of porous adsorbents
and distinct host-guest interactions to effectively separate important and
challenging industrial gas mixtures.
