Detection of SO2 using a chemically stable Ni(II)-MOF

Nanoscale. 2023 Aug 3;15(30):12471-12475. doi: 10.1039/d3nr02936k.

Abstract

The MOF-type Ni2(dobpdc) shows a high chemical stability towards SO2, high capacity for SO2 capture at low pressure (4.3 mmol g-1 at 298 K and up to 0.05 bar), and exceptional cycling performance. Fluorescence experiments demonstrated the SO2 detection properties of Ni2(dobpdc) with a remarkable SO2 detection selectivity. Finally, time-resolved photoluminescence experiments provided a plausible mechanism of SO2 detection by this Ni(II)-based MOF material.
