Synthesis, characterization, and CO2 adsorption of three metal-organic frameworks (MOFs): MIL-53, MIL-96, and amino-MIL-53

The performance of MIL-53 to capture CO2 in breakthrough experiment is significantly higher than MIL-96(Al) and amino-MIL-53 because of its high surface area and pore expansion behaviour, making it a promising candidate adsorbent for carbon capture.
