Patent number: 9393548Abstract: Flowing supercritical CO2 is used to activate metal organic framework materials (MOF). MOFs are activated directly from N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) thus avoiding exchange with a volatile solvent. Most MCPs display increased surface areas directly after treatment although those with coordinatively unsaturated metal centers benefit from additional heating.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2013Date of Patent: July 19, 2016Assignee: The Regents Of The University Of MichiganInventors: Adam J. Matzger, Baojian Liu, Antek G. Wong-Foy

Patent number: 9132411Abstract: A linking ligand compound includes three bidentate chemical moieties distributed about a central chemical moiety. Another linking ligand compound includes a bidentate linking ligand and a monodentate chemical moiety. Coordination polymers include a plurality of metal clusters linked together by residues of the linking ligand compounds.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2013Date of Patent: September 15, 2015Assignee: The Regents of the University of MichiganInventors: Adam J. Matzger, Antek G. Wong-Foy, Oliver Lebel

Patent number: 8884087Abstract: The present invention provides compositions of crystalline coordination copolymers wherein multiple organic molecules are assembled to produce porous framework materials with layered or core-shell structures. These materials are synthesized by sequential growth techniques such as the seed growth technique. In addition, the invention provides a simple procedure for controlling functionality.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2009Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignees: UOP LLC, The Regents of the University of MichiganInventors: Kyoung Moo Koh, Antek G. Wong-Foy, Adam J. Matzger, Annabelle I. Benin, Richard R. Willis

Publication number: 20130305922Abstract: A gas-dehumidification method can include passing a humid gas stream through a water-sorbing sorbent comprising a microporous coordination polymer or derivative thereof, wherein the sorbent sorbs water from the passing humid gas stream to produce a water-sorbed sorbent and a dehumidified gas stream. The method can further include passing a drying gas through the water-sorbed sorbent under conditions sufficient to desorb the water and to regenerate the water-sorbing sorbent.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 16, 2013Publication date: November 21, 2013Applicant: The Regents of the University of MichiganInventors: Adam J.
