Honored to present at EUROMOF 2025 in Crete 🌍 Talk: continuous flow synthesis of water-based MOFs for toxic gas capture. Poster: awarded Best Poster 🏆 at the Young Scientists Symposium! Grateful for the support of my supervisors @andrealaybourn.bsky.social #EUROMOF2025 #MOFs #Research
At #EuroMOF2025. The sheer number of MOFs named after uni/company, changing the number when only difference is metal ion used to make the MOF and name gives no indication what the chemical composition is from "xxMOF-n" shows that we need a standardised nomenclature desperately. #IUPAC #chemsky #MOFs
Today at #EuroMOFYSS @valubelu.bsky.social will be presenting our recent paper on SO2 sensing using MFM-300 MOFs. On Tue #EuroMOF2025 Hashim will present his work towards this. For more information see our paper below.
