Author:Bambalaza, Sonwabo E; Langmi, HW; Mokaya, R; Musyoka, Nicholas M; Khotseng, LEDate:Dec 2020We report on a concept of co-pelletization using mechanically robust hydroxylated UiO-66 to develop a metal-organic framework (MOF) monolith that contains 5 wt% electrospun polymer nanofibers, and consists of an architecture with alternating ...Read more
Author:Bambalaza, Sonwabo E; Langmi, HW; Mokaya, R; Musyoka, Nicholas M; Khotseng, LEDate:May 2020High-pressure (700 MPa or ∼100 000 psi) compaction of dehydroxylated and hydroxylated UiO-66 for H2 storage applications is reported. The dehydroxylation reaction was found to occur between 150 and 300 °C. The H2 uptake capacity of powdered ...Read more
Author:Bambalaza, Sonwabo E; Langmi, Henrietta W; Musyoka, Nicholas M; Ren, Jianwei; Khotseng, LEDate:May 2018The fabrication of application-specific metal-organic framework (MOF) composites has the potential to shift more towards hydrogen storage system integration. The in-situ growth of nano particles on a graphene surface is a common technique for ...Read more
