General description

Basolite®C 300 is a metal organic framework (MOF). It is a crystallized hybrid porous solid built up from inorganic subunits, which are connected to organic linkers such as carboxylates or phosphonates. It is a commercialized sorbent that has the structure of HKUST-1.
HKUST-1 is also known as MOF-199, Cu-BTC and Basolite(TM) C300. HKUST-1 is a blue cubic crystal of copper based ultramicroporous metal framework (MOF). It is prepared by solvothermal method. It could have a surface area of nearly 2200 m2/g2.
MOF (metal organic framework)

Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs)

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous, crystalline materials. MOFs are composed of metal ions or clusters bound by multidirectional organic ligands, which act as linkers in the network structure.

Metal-Organic Frameworks in Sustainable Energy Technologies

Metal-organic frameworks, a subset of coordination polymers, represent a powerful new tool for a plethora of alternative energy applications. MOFs are readily available using simple synthetic strategies that supply tailored, high surface area materials.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
