Summary
A comprehensive gas/vapour sorption facility for the fast advancement of decarbonised energy technologies. Solutions to clean energy production, storage and use are critical to Australia’s prosperity, yet there is a significant lack of targeted research facilities for the development of the highly needed materials and technologies for powering a sustainable Australia. This facility will bring research efforts closer to practical solutions.
Responsive porous materials for the triggered release of stored target molecules. This project will create a new generation of ultraporous materials capable of releasing a valuable molecule, stored within their pores, when an external trigger is applied. The porous materials, including metal organic frameworks and porous aromatic frameworks, will have components incorporated within them that can respond to stimuli such as ultraviolet or visible light, microwave, ultrasound, or pH change, causing ....Responsive porous materials for the triggered release of stored target molecules.

The porous materials, including metal organic frameworks and porous aromatic frameworks, will have components incorporated within them that can respond to stimuli such as ultraviolet or visible light, microwave, ultrasound, or pH change, causing the stored target molecule to be released. Target molecules will include carbon dioxide, fertilisers, clean burning gaseous fuels and medicines.Read moreRead less
