This chemical is primarily used in the development of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which are advanced materials with high porosity and surface area. Its application in MOFs is crucial for gas storage, particularly for hydrogen and methane, due to its ability to form stable, structured networks. Additionally, it plays a role in carbon capture technologies, where its framework can selectively adsorb CO2 from industrial emissions. In catalysis, it serves as a support material for enhancing reaction efficiency in various chemical processes. Its unique structure also makes it suitable for use in sensors, where it can detect specific gases or pollutants with high sensitivity.
