Fascinating lecture from the father of MOFs

Heart felt presentation, Thank you. Question: Is your surface area measure using the summation of the geometric Spheres in the MOF ?

[@qaisarmaqbool3047]

What an incredible work professor. I have watched almost all of your videos on mOF. I am phd student at university of siuth florida. I wish I could join your lab after graduation.

[@swastikbiswas8293]

How many universities is he connected to?! UCLA to Berkeley to some French Institute.. he is already a legend even before Nobel prize Chemistry 2020 nomination

[@rafiamasrat648]

Can you please tell me how and from where to download the CIF files of these MOFs in particular to Cu- MOF

[@mahfuzulhoque3465]

Magnificent innovation..

[@shahsulaman5855]

Can you tell me how to calculate the theoretical yield of Cu-BTC?

[@shadabsaifi7406]

Dear professor, i am very excited after watched your MOF information video. I am also working in MOF catalysis .

[@TheBreeze976]

Your effort is wonderful, It seems to me mof's are the harbingers of clean future. I wish I could contribute or I had

[@maria-giulianalatini1724]

Can you not coat pre-existing structures, such as river beds etc?

[@jameskegrere2965]

Extra ordinary scientific discovery. Thank you Dr. Yaghi

[@samiragoran1101]

Hi dears It's a very interesting video ,and well done dear professor Yaghi. I have a question please, if anyone knows the answer I will be very thankful , my question is how you know it's MOF after preparation ? Is there any test to confirm it,please ?

[@darkfairy6308]

they probably do X-ray Diffraction Analysis or other characterization techniques

Dear Prof Omar Yaghi, I am so interesting in MOFs , i would like to collaborate, my previous experience in nanocomposite Dr_Eng (PhD) in materials, i had also work with high surface area hybrid silica-carbonaceous-chitosan which will publish later on in end of sept. thank you for your demo its very fascinating . good luck , Mustafa K. Ismael

[@bacarrakris5432]

Quick question when he says metal Organics is he talking about organic metal or something different

Carbon capture is the one thing. Using DUST for storage would be even nicer. Just. To multiply the maximum storage capacity. Is the longlivety dependend on loading cycles or are covalent bonds without any such as...wear (``?)?

[@paulsutton5896]

I am not an expert but ... ... I was put in mind of the lithium ion battery. In a battery's charged up state, the lithium ions settle in spaces called "intercalations" in graphite. I don't think this is a chemical reaction in the usual sense. It is more that the graphite offers a place for the ions to park neatly ... ... and they do. Vast numbers of ions will do this until there is no more room, at which point, the battery is fully charged. But battery scientists would always like more. One solution would be to cram more lithium ions in to graphite's multi-storey park, and batteries would become lighter per amount of charge. Another solution would be to make intercalations for different ions, silicon, for instance. The silicon ions have a valency of four (I think) against lithium's valency of one. Attempts to accumulate these larger ions have not so far been successful. Do your mofs hold out any hope?

[@Ulyssesss]

Je vous signale que "MOF's" est automatiquement (et inutilement) traduit de l'anglais en français, dans les sous-titres, par "papillons de nuit" et parfois par "mites" (avec, une fois, l'expression "anti-mites"). Cela donne une perspective un peu hallucinatoire pour les insomniaques...

[@rpgiacon]

Cant you use ressonant frequencies or eletrical properties of the structures to create a sort of "artificial nose" to detect small molecules?

[@azizmohammed182]

Thank you very much Sir for the insight. I am now inspired to study MOFs further for a career.

[@anderwan]

Fascinating. As always, there is money in carbon sequestration but the problem is insurmountable. Consider the 4 cubic miles of fossil hydrocarbons that is burned and must be sequestered every year. Porous lattices reminds me of Li ion storage techniques. Perhaps the money meant for sequestration will not be wasted, as the research can benefit energy storage applications.

[@OeNoesRAWR]

This guys name keeps popping up! I'm writing a paper on MOFs and Hydrogen storage and I've got two books and three papers from different places and his name is on them all! :D

[@kejingdu1384]

Yeah, every time I try to look something in MOFs, Yaghi's name just keep showing.

[@Snarky79]

+Samdroxpie: It's on line, check it out: This brain was hired by Harvard, lured away by Berkeley and earned a half mil in one of his earlier years(I think at the time it was CH4 and H that were the hot ones)Now I guess he's back to the usual professorial remunerations.

[@AmarThakuri]

Hi #Samdroxpie, can I get any contact id so that I could discuss with you about MOF. I have gone through some related contained about MOF and it has got my attension. I hope you will reply soon...

[@seeratemohammad]

Can any1 tell me pls.. In MOF number indicates what? example in MOF-5.. 5 stands for what.? Or in ZIF-8, number 8 indicates what?

[@taslim3650]

For MOFs its approximately the order of their discovery

[@chucknewcomb3577]

Apply your theory to agricultural use ?

[@franksmildyears7323]

I intend to enroll in an internship program at KAUST on MOFs and his rate of information delivery was very helpful for a beginner. Thanks a lot professor Omar, and Berkeley Lab for sharing such informative and insightful content.

[@amankumar595]

Metal organic Framework is a which branch of chemistry? Inorganic, organic, physical, or analytical chemistry?

[@odaynehill2647]

Mix of inorganic and organic

[@mariamhasany5250]

Amazing lecture! Very intriguing

[@neilabbott239805]

So much potential

[@siriuswong71]

On U2B，you can even study MOF

[@thirumalairajansubrmaniam2803]

Nice video and more understanding about MOFs

[@muhammadumarwanayusuf8242]

I`m highly excited to hear from you sir, as an inorganic chemist, I developed a passionate interest to this amazing field, I wish I can do my PhD under your supervision sir. you are too inspiring sir

[@PradeepSingh-wx7yl]

frame works

[@mahdokhtshaibani9969]

he is absolutely fabulous!

[@soniyarajput4941]

Mahdokht Shaibani ...Mam plz help me how i can prepare MOF-5

[@waheediqbal8985]

Mahdokht Shaibani your beauty is also fabulous

[@bina5580]

Thank you so much

[@zhi-ganggu296]

so good lecture！ ^_^

[@fakhrulnawawi9681]

How the mof selectively store hydrogen, not other gas??

[@prateekvaish1541]

By controlling the size of Pore aperture

[@gauravashq]

Everybody is trying to store hydrogen safely. For using it as a source of energy.

[@ItalJr]

👍🏽🙏🏽

[@SasikumarBcool]

Great....

[@Vladimir4180]

Fascinating.

[@anwarahniyaz3443]

nice

[@umeshpratap3596]

Excellent

[@Ron_DeForest]

Has anyone looked in artificial lungs or how this could be used in the areas of cybernetics?

[@engrkhalil]

great

[@NobixLee]

I admit it!
