2nd European Chemistry School for Ukrainians

The 2nd European Chemistry School for Ukrainians is officially underway! Hosted under the patronage of the Rector of AGH University of Science and Technology and the President of the Polish Chemical Society, this exciting event brings together students, researchers, and chemistry experts from across Europe for three months of intensive scientific learning and knowledge exchange, […]

Crude Enzyme Extracts for Biocatalyst Entrapment in MOFs

To tackle the enzyme fragility and bolster the applicability of enzymes as heterogeneous catalysts, it is imperative to address not only their inherent fragility, insufficient recyclability but also, importantly, to mitigate their deactivation during purification. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been shown to be, on the one hand, a promising platform for enzyme entrapment. However, at […]

Special Issue: Nano-to-Macroscale Reticular Materials to Address Societal Challenges

In the past 25 years reticular chemistry has matured into an advanced field of research, recognized as a driving force for the development of key technologies in the field of functional materials. The high surface areas, the potential for chemical functionalization, and the structural diversity of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) and covalent […]

Environmental Impact Assessments of Commercially available Metal-organic Frameworks

MOFs have come forth as one of the most promising next-generation crystalline porous material with exceptional structural, chemical and application diversity. Since their inception, MOFs have been developed and explored regarding their reticular tunability, physiochemical properties, and their benchmark performances toward various on-demand applications including gas adsorption/separation, heterogeneous catalysis, sensing, environmental remediation and so on. […]

Honorary Doctor for Stefan Wuttke

The State Scientific Institution “Institute for Single Crystals” of NASU (Kharkiv, Ukraine) assigns the title of Honorary Doctor every year to two professors: one from Ukraine and one international, for their significant contributions to Ukrainian science. This year, I was honoured to receive the title of Honorary Doctor from the State Scientific Institution “Institute for […]

Special Issue: Chemistry in Ukraine

“It is the great beauty of our science, chemistry, that advancement in it, whether in a degree great or small, instead of exhausting the subjects of research, opens the doors to further and more abundant knowledge, overflowing with beauty and utility.” Michael Faraday With this essence of scientific innovations and diversity, we are delighted and […]

We are happy to inform you about the first hybrid event of the EU4MOFs COST Action: on the 6th and 7th June we will be hosting a MOF symposium as well as a MOF workshop at BC Materials in Bilbao, Spain. Follow the QR code to tune in online!

Reticular Material Survey

Dear researcher, I am reaching out to you to ask for your expert opinion. As a part of an invited review on the topic on “Reticular materials: Facts and Figures after 30 years“, we believe it is a good opportunity to reflect on these facts and figures by asking the reticular materials community for their […]

Christmas Charity for Ukrainian children

As Christmas approaches, we would like to organize again a charity to spread the warmness and Christmas spirit to help the most innocent people in every war: the children. Specifically, we would like to organize Christmas presents for the kids who lost parents in the war and humanitarian help for children who were displaced from the […]
