Porous Organic Frameworks - Design, Synthesis and Their Advanced Applications

This book describes the design, synthesis, characterization and applications of porous organic frameworks (POFs). Special emphasis is placed on the utilization of porous materials for CO₂ capture and CH₄ and H₂ storage, which have promising potential for addressing the issues of environmental degradation and climate change. It also includes two chapters introducing the properties of POFs and defining the principles of synthesis, as well as a chapter dealing with post-modified POFs. This book is intended for those readers who are interested in porous materials and their applications.
Guangshan Zhu is a professor at the College of Chemistry, Jilin University, China.

List of contents

Introduction to Porous Materials.- Principles for the Synthesis of Porous Organic Frameworks.- Synthetic Post-Modification of Porous Organic Frameworks.- Gas Sorption Using Porous Organic Frameworks.- Porous Organic Frameworks for Catalysis.- Other Applications of Porous Organic Frameworks.

About the author

Prof. Guangshan Zhu received his BS (1993) and PhD (1998) in Chemistry from Jilin University (China). He was then immediately appointed as an assistant professor at the Department of Chemistry, Jilin University. In 1999, he worked as a postdoctoral research associate at Tohoku University in Japan. He has been a full professor at Jilin University since 2001, and now holds the Cheung Kong Professorship appointed by the Ministry of Education of China. The current research in his group is focused on the design and synthesis of zeolites, metal–organic frameworks and porous organic frameworks for gas–liquid adsorption, separation, and other advanced applications.
