Description

Mil-53(Fe) CAS NO 764608-47-1 is a metal-organic framework (MOF) material composed of iron(III) ions and terephthalate linkers, forming a flexible, porous three-dimensional structure. This material is significant for its exceptional adsorption capacity and structural responsiveness to guest molecules, making it a highly tunable platform for separation and catalysis. It is primarily needed by researchers and engineers in the fields of gas storage, environmental remediation, and heterogeneous catalysis for developing next-generation adsorption systems and sensors.

Application

• Gas Separation and Storage: Investigated for the selective capture and storage of gases like carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), and hydrogen (H₂) due to its flexible pore structure.
• Environmental Remediation: Used as an adsorbent for the removal of pollutants, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and heavy metals, from air and water streams.
• Heterogeneous Catalysis: Serves as a catalyst or catalyst support in various organic transformations, leveraging its high surface area and active iron sites.
• Sensor Development: Employed in the fabrication of chemical sensors that exploit its pore flexibility and selective interaction with target analytes.
• Drug Delivery Systems: Explored as a potential carrier for controlled drug release, utilizing its porous network to encapsulate pharmaceutical agents.
• Advanced Research: Serves as a model flexible MOF for fundamental studies on adsorption phenomena, phase transitions, and material behavior under different conditions.

Quality Control

Our Mil-53(Fe) is produced and tested under stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability for research and development. Each lot is characterized to confirm critical parameters such as phase purity, surface area, and pore volume. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific test results is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation of the porous structure. For long-term storage, consider using a desiccator.
