Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of materials that contain nano-sized pores. These pores give MOFs record-breaking internal surface areas, which make them extremely versatile for a number ...

For those who are unfamiliar, a heat pump is a device that transfers heat from one space to another, either from a cold space to a warm space or vice versa, making them a great way to heat and cool ...

The use of nanocomposites, which use small-scale particle fillers to enhance the characteristics of thermoplastics and thermosets, has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. For instance, ...

Chemical engineers have developed a machine-learning model that can accurately predict the heat capacity of the versatile metal-organic framework materials. The work shows that the overall energy ...
