Accurate stacking engineering of MOF nanosheets as membranes for precise H2 sieving by Wufeng Wu, Xitai Cai, Xianfeng Yang, Yanying Wei, Li Ding, Libo Li, Haihui Wang

“…Here, we propose a strategy for accurately controlling the stacking modes of MOF nanosheets via linker polarity regulation. Both theoretical calculations and experimental results demonstrate that a high linker polarity promotes neighboring nanosheets to a maximum AB stacking due to steric hindrance effects, leading to a controlled effective pore size of the membrane and consequently to improved molecular sieving. …”
