Abstract
Microfluidic synthesis has emerged as a promising method for synthesizing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). It overcomes the limitations of the traditional solvothermal method to regulate the structure and function of the MOFs. This study synthesized various MOFs with different structures and functions by controlling the reaction time and the ratio of metal ions to organic ligands through microfluidics and investigated their CO 2 adsorption properties. The results showed that the microfluidic synthesized defective and hierarchical pore MOF-808 improved the adsorption performance of CO 2 by nearly 110% and 30%, respectively, compared with solvothermal synthesized MOF-808.
