A wide range of potential commercial applications of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been highlighted in the academic literature. Although many applications have been identified, few commercial applications have been realized due to challenges in scale-up, formation, cost, and long-term stability of MOFs. NuMat Technologies has overcome these challenges by developing one of the first MOF-based products for the safe delivery of toxic gases used in the semiconductor industry, ION-X.  As result of this commercial success, NuMat Technologies is seeking to develop a portfolio of MOF-based products. This portfolio development has led to active partnerships with multinational gas companies, including Versum and the Linde Group.  This talk will focus on the challenges that were overcome in the development of ION-X and lessons that are being applied to NuMat’s portfolio of MOF-based products.<br/>
