A Game-Changer in Advanced Materials and Sustainability Imagine a material with so much internal surface area that a pinch of it contains the equivalent of six football fields of area news.berkeley.edu. Such metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous, crystalline compounds made of metal nodes connected by organic linkers, creating sponge-like networks at the molecular scale. Scientists tout MOFs as having “seemingly limitless possibilities” for building custom structures with tailored properties cas.org. Over the past 20 years, research on MOFs has exploded – nearly 90,000 unique MOF structures have been created (with hundreds of thousands more predicted in theory) cas.org. This surge
