Interplay between noble gases and MOFs: Insights from 129Xe and 83Kr NMR spectroscopy The atomic-level mechanisms of Xe and Kr adsorption in MOFs are revealed using 129Xe and 83Kr solid-state NMR spectroscopy.

To properly celebrate today's MOFs Nobel prize 🥇 🤗 🎉 (just published today), with colleagues from @westernu.ca Wanli Zhang, Vinicius Marti, Jeffrey Collins, Reza Moshrefi, Samantha Michelle Gateman, Victor V. Terskikh, and Yining Huang* www.science.org/doi/full/10.... #NMRchat 🧲

NMR of Metal–Organic Frameworks and Covalent Organic Frameworks As new porous materials, metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have been receiving an abundance of research interest in re

We interrupt our regular programming to announce…

This is one of the more interesting works I've participated in. NMR holds a lot of promise for understanding structural features in covalent organic frameworks (COFs). Layer stacking, staggering, distances, and more!

Someone on here compared AI produced material as "digital asbestos " which in a few decades' time we will have to work out how to eradicate from the fabric of research.

Metal-organic frameworks can selectively adsorb and separate gases...but where are the gases adsorbed in the system, how do the adsorbed gases move, and what host-guest interactions are in play? Check out the new preprint from the @westernu.bsky.social Huang and Karttunen labs! #NMRchat

A Figure from the paper depicting a comparison of the various ways CO2 and C2H2 gases may be captured and extracted.

"Benchmarking selective capture of trace CO2 from C2H2 using an amine-functionalized adsorbent" is online in @naturecomms.bsky.social , detailing a new adsorbent with excellent properties for large-scale industrial applications. There's also NMR, FT-IR, DFT, and more! Link: doi.org/10.1038/s414...

- Did academic stuff and got my PhD, did more academic stuff, went into industry for a few years, and now doing scientific editing
- Love NMR applications
- Absolutely ruthless editor (in a good way)
- Like to run and bike
