Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are coordination networks with high surface area and tunable chemistry, widely used in molecular recognition-related applications. This review focuses on pore engineering at four different length scales, including unit cell, multi-unit cells, mesoscale, and macroscale, and discusses the practical consequences on mass transfer, heat transfer, and mechanical stability of MOF materials.
Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) is a type of coordination networks with high surface area and tunable chemistry. MOFs are utilized for molecular recognition-related applications. The interaction of MOFs with molecules of interest occurs at the internal and external surfaces of MOFs, where internal surfaces are mostly inside the MOF pores. It is important to tune this interaction by pore engineering. We reviewed pore engineering at 4 different length scales: unit cell, multi-unit cells, mesoscale and macroscale. Additionally, we also discussed practical consequences of pore engineering on mass transfer, heat transfer and mechanical stability of MOF materials.
