  • Patent number: 9290518
    Abstract: An efficient, one step solution state processing of Proton Conducting Homochiral Metal Organic Framework has been achieved by using derivate of amino acid and Zn(II) salt as a MOF constructor. Control over MOF solubility as well as proton conductivity has also been achieved by judicious selection of the ligand architecture. This invention will lead the way for ease preparation of MOF films for industrial application.

  • Patent number: 9095839
    Abstract: A hybrid composite of Metal Organic Frameworks (MOF) encapsulated in nanocarbon material, wherein the MOFs are grown inside or outside or both side of nano carbon morphologies of the hybrid composite. Such composites may be prepared by a. dissolving and mixing a salt of the metal and a ligand in the ratio ranging between 1:1 to 1:4 (by w/w ratio) by sonicating them to form a precursor mixture; b. adding non-functionalized or functionalized nano-carbon material to the precursor mixture of step (a); c. sonicating the mixture of step (b) followed by heating; d. keeping the slurry obtained at elevated temperature followed by centrifugation.
