Differential guest location by host dynamics enhances propylene/propane separation in a metal-organic framework

Differential guest location by host dynamics enhances propylene/propane separation in a metal-organic framework

Porous materials acting as molecular sieves for propylene/propane separation are important for the petrochemical industry. Here the authors show an example of how specific guest-host interactions can result in structural changes in the porous host and shut down diffusion of one of the two similar gu...
