Unique sorption properties for isomeric frameworks

Two porous supramolecular isomeric frameworks have shown unique sorption properties, say a collaboration of Chinese and Japanese scientists. 

One framework shows temperature dependent and selective sorption of CO2, while the other framework shows gas uptake capacity for CO2, N2, H2 and CH4 at low temperature and selective sorption of CO2 over N2 around room temperature. Wei-Yin Sun and colleagues believe that the results provide useful guidance for improving metal organic framework (MOF) designs for gas storage and separation techniques.
