In recent years, Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a promising class of materials for gas storage and separation applications due to their high surface area, tunable pore size, and chemical functionality. In this study, we report the successful fabrication and characterization of nanoscale MOFs for enhanced gas storage and separation performance. We synthesized a series of MOFs with varying metal nodes and organic linkers, and systematically investigated their structural, thermal, and chemical stability. Advanced characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and gas adsorption isotherms, were employed to elucidate the structural and morphological features of the synthesized MOFs. The gas storage capacities of the MOFs were evaluated for hydrogen, methane, and carbon dioxide, revealing a significant enhancement in storage capacity compared to bulk MOFs. Furthermore, we investigated the gas separation performance of the MOFs for CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2 mixtures, demonstrating high selectivity and separation efficiency. The results of this study provide valuable insights into the design and fabrication of nanoscale MOFs for gas storage and separation applications, and pave the way for the development of next-generation materials for clean energy and environmental applications.
