Algorithm reveals 'magic sizes' for assembling programmable icosahedral shells at minimal cost
Over the past decade, experts in the field of nanotechnology and materials science have been trying to devise architectures ...
That enormous surface area is one of the unique things that make MOFs so powerful, and it comes from the nanoscale pores – tiny molecular rooms that can trap, separate, transform or transport gases, ...
Unlike traditional polymers, this structure allows MOFs to have open internal spaces with a well-defined size, which can allow some molecules to pass through while filtering out others. In addition, ...
