Attfield, Martin - The University of Manchester

研究领域

Our research interests relate to the field of materials chemistry with particular specialisation in the area of crystalline nanoporous materials. Such materials are utilized on a world wide scale in a diverse array of areas including heterogeneous catalysis, ion-exchange, gas and liquid separation processes, nuclear waste remediation, optoelectronics and drug delivery. The core of our research takes place in the Centre for Nanoporous Materials and recently, the main focus of the group has been directed towards metal organic frameworks - the newest family of nanoporous material that is receiving global research attention. These hybrid materials consist of frameworks constructed from metal cations and organic linker groups and are of particular interest because within one material the benefits of both types of chemistry are present - the metal cations impart their own particular magnetic, electronic and catalytic properties, while the organic sections enable the functionality and the overall framework architecture of the material to be rationally designed. The major research themes involving metal organic frameworks include: (1) crystal growth (2) synthesis and design of new materials (3) properties and application.
