Description

Charge-Controlled Materials for Separations of Important Resources. This project aims to develop new porous materials that are capable of greater molecular discrimination than current technologies. This project expects to advance understanding of fundamental structure-activity relationships in these materials, and synthetic targets will be geared towards materials for industrially or environmentally important chemical separations associated with metal extraction. Expected outcomes of this project include new insights on the underlying chemistry for tailoring crystalline microporous materials towards select applications. This should provide significant benefits, such as future low-energy and efficient technologies for industrially important separation processes with reduced financial and environmental costs.. Scheme: Discovery Projects. Field: 3402 - Inorganic Chemistry. Lead: Prof Stuart Batten
