Trapping gases in metal-organic frameworks with a selective surface molecular barrier layer

The main challenge for gas storage and separation in nanoporous materials is that many molecules of interest adsorb too weakly to be effectively retained. Instead of synthetically modifying the internal surface structure of the entire bulk-as is typically done to enhance adsorption-here we show that...
