Our research aims to
Obtain insights into factors governing high/low performances in a particular gas adsorption/separation application
Investigate structural properties and gas storage/separation performances of large number of porous materials
Provide shortlists of top-performing materials to enable other scientists to prioritize working on promising materials
We mainly focus on two types of porous materials in our research, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent-organic frameworks (COFs).
MOFs are composed of metal and organic constituents having large porosities and chemical diversity.
Our research involves employing MOFs for the capture of greenhouse and/or toxic gases.
COFs are constructed via the linkage of organic building blocks having light elements (B, C, H, O etc.). Like MOFs, they are also highly porous rendering them good candidates for gas storage/separation applications.
Our research on COFs focuses on using COFs for industrially relevant gas separations.
Both the numbers of MOFs and COFs are very high due to the large number of building block combinations. Thus, our current research on MOFs and COFs typically involves high-throughput computational screening and/or machine learning techniques.
