Enhanced Selective CO₂ Capture upon Incorporation of Dimethylformamide in the Cobalt Metal–Organic Framework [Co₃(OH)₂(btca)₂] by Hai-Yun Ren (544398)

“…As society’s demand for energy increases and more CO₂ emissions are produced, it becomes imperative to selectively capture CO₂ and decrease the amount emitted to the atmosphere. Here, we present a flexible and porous metal–organic framework (MOF), [Co₃(OH)₂(btca)₂] (<b>1</b>) (where btca = benzotriazole-5-carboxylic acid), which exhibits excellent CO₂ uptake (223.7 mg g^–1 at 273 K and 104.7 mg g^–1 at 298 K) and better selectivity for CO₂/N₂ (46.3 at 273 K) . …”
