The 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for groundbreaking research on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). This exceptional distinction underscores the importance of this group of materials, which have gained enormous interest in recent years in both scientific and industrial settings.
Metal-organic frameworks are crystalline networks composed of metal ions bound to organic ligands. Their unique structure allows for the creation of structures with very high surface area and controlled porosity. As a result, MOFs find applications in many advanced fields of science and technology, such as:
• gas storage and separation (e.g., hydrogen or carbon dioxide),
• chemical catalysis,
• design of chemical sensors,
• environmental purification and protection.
Their properties make them a key element in the development of sustainable technologies and new solutions in the fields of energy and materials chemistry.
At 3D-nano, we follow developments in this field with great interest. As the official distributor of the German company PlasmaChem, we offer materials with metal-organic structures – high-quality materials that can be used in research, development projects, and in academic and industrial laboratories.
The Nobel Prize confirms that MOF research is the future of materials chemistry. At 3D-nano, we are pleased to support scientists and engineers who are developing this fascinating field by providing them with essential, high-quality nanomaterials.
