Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their unique structural properties and potential applications in gas adsorption. This thesis presents a study on the synthesis and characterization of novel MOFs for gas adsorption applications. The research aims to contribute to the development of efficient adsorbent materials for various gas storage and separation processes. The project involves the synthesis of MOFs using different organic linkers and metal ions, followed by thorough characterization using various analytical techniques. The introductory chapter provides an overview of the research background, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, and the overall structure of the thesis. Chapter two presents an in-depth literature review covering ten key aspects related to MOFs, gas adsorption, synthesis techniques, characterization methods, and applications in gas separation. The third chapter outlines the research methodology, including the experimental procedures, materials used, synthesis techniques, and characterization methods employed in the study. Chapter four presents a detailed discussion of the findings obtained from the synthesis and characterization of the novel MOFs. The results highlight the structural properties, porosity, surface area, and gas adsorption capabilities of the synthesized materials. The discussion also includes comparisons with existing literature and potential applications of the novel MOFs in gas adsorption processes. Finally, chapter five provides a comprehensive conclusion and summary of the project thesis. The conclusions drawn from the study emphasize the significance of the research findings, implications for future research directions, and the practical applications of the novel MOFs in gas adsorption. Overall, this research contributes to the advancement of MOF materials for gas adsorption applications and provides valuable insights into the synthesis and characterization of novel MOFs.
