A study by a group of researchers of the Department of Chemistry, Materials and Chemical Engineering “Giulio Natta”, has been published on the Special Issue on "Emerging trends in Metal Organic Frameworks (MOF)" of «Chemical Communications», Journal of the Royal Society of Chemistry.

The study compares different methods to determine the effective hydrophobicity of nanoporous materials such as MOFs and proposes a new protocol.

Hydrophobicity and dielectric properties across an isostructural family of MOFs: a duet or a duel?
