1. INTRODUCTION The ability to synthesize porous metal− organic frameworks (MOFs) with
prescribed structural features (Figure 1) has led to intense interest in the materials for …

Over the last at least three decades, the science of porous solid materials has become one
of the most intense areas of study for chemists, physicists, and materials scientists. These …

Atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) emerges as a promising means to overcome the water
scarcity of arid regions, especially for inland areas lacking liquid water sources. Beyond …

There is growing scientific consensus that the rising atmospheric levels of CO 2 as a result of
man-made activities (eg, fossil fuel burning, cement and lime production, ammonia and …

Hydrophobic voids within titanium silicates have long been considered necessary to achieve
high rates and selectivities for alkene epoxidations with H2O2. The catalytic consequences …

The catalytic sites of acidic zeolite are profoundly altered by the presence of water changing
the nature of the Brønsted acid site. High-resolution solid-state NMR spectroscopy shows …

Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) for gas separations are traditionally comprised of zeolites
dispersed in a polymer matrix in order to improve desired penetrant permeability and …

A molecular description of the structure and behavior of water confined in aluminosilicate
zeolite pores is a crucial component for understanding zeolite acid chemistry under hydrous …

With rising CO2 levels, it is important to develop new methods to capture CO2 directly from
air. Currently, most direct air capture (DAC) adsorbents, such as amines, rely on …

Water is ubiquitous in many thermal treatments and reaction conditions involving zeolite
catalysts, but the potential impacts are complex. The different types of water interaction with …
