About the product

ZIF-8 (Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8) is a crystalline metal–organic framework of tetrahedral zinc ion clusters linked by 2-methylimidazolate anions. Its structure is similar to that of zeolites, which gives it high thermal and chemical stability and a microporous architecture.

Main applications are mixed-matrix membranes for gas separation, PDMS membranes for nanofiltration, hydrogen and carbon dioxide adsorption, sensors, catalysis, removal of organic dyes from wastewater, and drug delivery systems. We select the crystal size and surface modification according to your specification.
