报告摘要

This presentation includes following two topics:

1) Porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as platforms for functional applications. There has been a rapid development in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), especially porous MOFs, due to their high potential for diverse applications in the past decade. Recently, we have successfully synthesized a number of new porous MOFs and found their new applications as catalysts, as templates for nanoporous carbon synthesis, and as supports for metal nanoparticles as well as for large molecule separation. Crystalline MOF nanosheets have been fabricated via top-down delamination from bulk crystals of a layered MOF, which exhibit remarkable amine intercalation property and reversible amine exchangeability.

2) Metal nanoparticle-catalyzed hydrogen generation from liquid-phase chemical hydrogen storage materials. Hydrogen, H2, is a globally accepted clean fuel. The use of hydrogen fuel cells in vehicles or in portable electronic devices requires lightweight H2 storage or “on-board” hydrogen generation, for which the most important are safety, ease to control and fast kinetics of the hydrogen release along with a high hydrogen content. Here we report excellent liquid-phase hydrogen generation systems suitable for use as portable hydrogen sources, which are based on metal nanoparticle-catalyzed hydrolysis of ammonia borane (NH3BH3), complete decomposition of hydrous hydrazine (H2NNH2) and decomposition of formic acid.
