KAIST Engineers Gas Lattice in Porous Materials
AI Summary

KAIST engineers have developed a computational framework to design porous materials that force gas molecules into ordered, crystal-like 'gas lattices.' This breakthrough could significantly improve the efficiency of carbon capture and gas separation technologies.

Capturing carbon or storing hydrogen to combat global warming requires compressing gases into sponge-like porous materials. Until now, gas molecules were thought to adsorb in a disordered manner throughout the pores. But what if invisible gas molecules could be lined up in regular order - like ice crystals or LEGO bricks?
