Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are new porous materials showing large internal surface areas, high porosities and tunable structures. They have been extensively studied for their application potential of gas storage, chemical separation, catalysis, and drug delivery. Based on the previous reported results, a series of MOFs with excellent methane uptake and working capacities have been synthesized by carefully tuning the pore sizes. They are very promising for on-board methane storage applications.
