Metal-Organic Frameworks: Synthesis and Applications

This cluster of papers focuses on the chemistry, applications, and properties of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). It covers topics such as gas adsorption, catalysis, methane storage, crystal engineering, chemical sensors, drug delivery, CO2 capture, and heterogeneous catalysis. The research explores the synthesis, structure, and potential industrial and biomedical applications of MOFs.

129,533 works

Papers listed on taxonomy pages are the top few works per node from the OpenAlex snapshot. That list is not exhaustive and is not an endorsement. The topic map and the journal registry remain separate: there is still no authoritative topic-to-venue or topic-to-organization edge. Search is a lexical lookup, not a claim that a venue publishes a topic.
