1. Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) Daniel Johnston

2. Overview General information MOF electrical applications MOF catalyst MOF gas storage Further research

3. General information on MOFs Highest internal surface area of any known material. – 1 gram if unraveled could cover a football field. Can be easily custom made into application specific crystals. http://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2014/cs/c3cs60442j#!di vAbstract https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzDIH7olP0c

4. MOFs in electrical components Four main focuses – Sensors – Passive – Active – Structural http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/chem.201101595/abstract

5. MOF as a catalyst My Personal images

6. MOF as a catalyst We would dope the MOF with our catalyst and have and use the MOF encased catalyst in place of the catalyst alone. Das, S.; Johnston, D.

7. MOFs as gas storage A lower pressure can be used to store the same amount of gas. Under the same pressure it is possible to hold 2x and up of the same gas http://phys.org/news/2013-04-alternate-fuel-usable-cars-tackles.html The New chemistry of metal-organic frameworks.

9. Further research Further evolution of robust chemical synthesis. Better understanding of the crystal growth to further our ability to custom make the MOF for a desired application. Additional experimentation on electrical applications.
