The present proposal is for a gas-adsorption analyzer for the study of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs). MOFs are a class of porous materials. Just like a sponge has pores which we can use to soak up soap and water to clean our dishes, a MOF has pores that can be used to store molecules (e.g., soap and water) for various applications (e.g., clean our dishes). Unlike our sponges at home, MOFs can be used for gas-storage, catalysis, chemical threat protection, and many other applications. A gas-adsorption analyzer is used to study the pores within a MOF. The proposed instrument will be able to tell us how much internal surface area the MOF has, how big and how many different kinds of pores the MOF has, and how "sticky" gas molecules are to the wall of the pore. With this information, we can relate how the pores of the MOF affect the physical properties we are interested in. In other words, the equipment being requested allows us to make sponges that are very good at specific applications. Our research team is focusing on studying the stability of MOFs in order to understand how they will fit in industrial applications, the synthesis of MOFs in benign solutions, the use of MOFs toward removal of toxic chemicals such as SO

本提案是用于用于研究金属有机框架（MOF）的气吸附分析仪。 MOF是一类多孔材料。就像海绵有毛孔一样，我们可以用来吸收肥皂和水清洁菜肴一样，MOF的毛孔可用于将分子（例如肥皂和水）用于各种应用（例如，清洁我们的菜肴）。 与我们在家的海绵不同，MOF可用于储气，催化，化学威胁保护和许多其他应用。 使用气吸附分析仪用于研究MOF内的孔。 所提出的仪器将能够告诉我们MOF具有多少内部表面积，MOF具有多少不同种类的毛孔，以及“粘性”气体分子在孔隙的壁上是多么“粘性”。有了这些信息，我们可以联系MOF的孔如何影响我们感兴趣的物理特性。换句话说，所请求的设备使我们能够制作出非常擅长特定应用的海绵。 我们的研究团队正在专注于研究MOF的稳定性，以了解它们如何适合工业应用，MOF在良性溶液中的合成，使用MOF用于去除有毒化学物质（例如So）
