Energetic and Catalytic Porous Metal-Organic Frameworks

Abstract

This AFOSR-funded effort supports the development of a class of crystalline compounds with exquisitely defined chemical structures known as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The chemistry of these materials will be investigated with a focus on porous MOFs and, in particular, those that are energetic. Research with these materials will be conducted in two interrelated and complementary thrusts. Thrust I- Developing MOFs as tools for studying the decomposition of energetics, and thrust II- Nanostructured Catalysts for Controlled Decomposition of Perchlorates to Enhance Oxygen Generation.
