摘要
Developing advanced porous materials possessing both a high storage capacity and selectivity for acetylene(C_(2)H_(2))remains challenging but a sought-after endeavor.Herein we show a strategy involving synergic combination of spatial confinement and commensurate stacking for enhanced C_(2)H_(2)storage and capture via maximizing the host–guest and guest–guest interactions.Two ultramicroporous metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),MIL-160 and MOF-303 are elaborately constructed to exhibit ultrahigh C_(2)H_(2)uptakes of 235 and 195 cm^(3)·g^(−1),respectively,due to the confinement effect of the suitable pore sizes and periodically dispersed molecular recognition sites.Specially,C_(2)H_(2)capacity of MIL-160 sets a new benchmark for C_(2)H_(2)storage.The exceptional separation performances of two materials for C_(2)H_(2)over both CO_(2)and ethylene(C_(2)H_(4)),which is rarely observed,outperform most of the benchmark materials for C_(2)H_(2)capture.We scrutinized the origins of ultrahigh C_(2)H_(2)loading in the confined channels via theoretical investigations.The superior separation efficiency for C_(2)H_(2)/CO_(2)and C_(2)H_(2)/C_(2)H_(4)mixtures with unprecedented C_(2)H_(2)trapping capacity(>200 L·kg^(−1))was further demonstrated by dynamic breakthrough experiments.
