Description

ZIF-9(Co) is a cobalt-based zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF), a subclass of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with the CAS registry number 15933-15-0. This material is valued for its exceptional chemical and thermal stability, along with its highly tunable porous structure, making it a cornerstone for advanced separation and catalytic processes. It is primarily sought by researchers and engineers in the fields of gas storage, heterogeneous catalysis, and molecular sieving for sustainable industrial applications.

Application

• Gas Separation & Storage: Selective adsorption and storage of gases like CO₂, H₂, and CH₄ for carbon capture and clean energy solutions.
• Heterogeneous Catalysis: Serving as a robust and reusable catalyst or catalyst support for organic transformations and oxidation reactions.
• Molecular Sieving: Utilized in membrane technology for the highly selective separation of molecules based on size and shape.
• Sensor Development: Acting as a sensitive material in chemical sensors for detecting specific gases or vapors.
• Drug Delivery Systems: Investigated as a nanocarrier for the controlled release of pharmaceutical agents.
• Environmental Remediation: Adsorption and removal of pollutants, dyes, or heavy metal ions from wastewater.

Quality Control

Our ZIF-9(Co) is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high performance. Each lot undergoes rigorous quality testing, including phase purity analysis, surface area measurement, and thermal stability assessment. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your research and development specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be kept under an inert atmosphere or in a desiccator for long-term storage to maintain its structural integrity and performance.
