Inserting Amide into NOTT-101 to Sharply Enhance Volumetric and Gravimetric Methane Storage Working Capacity
Amide-functionalized NJU-Bai45 exhibits high volumetric and gravimetric CH4 working capacities of 190 cm(3) cm(-3) and 298 cm(3) g(-1) (from 5.8 to 65 bar), higher than that of the similar NJU-Bai43 (187 cm(3) cm(-3) and 292 cm(3) g(-1)). This finding indicates that nitrogen-functionalized aromatic ring may not always play a positive role in amide-MOF for CH4 storage.
