Topic: Digital Reticular Materials for a Sustainable Future

Date and time: 8:30–17:15, October 16

Venue: Room 105, #5 Building of SPST

Host: ZHANG Yuebiao


Brief introduction:

With the rapid advancement of reticular chemistry, emerging artificial porous crystals such as Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) and Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) have emerged as the forefront of interdisciplinary research, bridging the fields of chemistry, chemical engineering, and materials science. They hold immense potential in addressing critical challenges in the fields of energy, environment, and new materials. Moreover, the aid of cutting-edge AI tools such as ChatGPT, robot chemists, data mining, and machine learning is driving a surge in digital reticular materials research. This trend is poised to reshape the paradigm of new materials research, expedite the materials development process, and facilitate the industrialization and commercialization of these materials.

We are pleased to invite a distinguished group of experts and scholars from China and around the world to participate in this symposium. Together, they will engage in discussions on academic topics related to porous materials, including MOFs, and explore their various industrial applications. We extend a warm welcome to faculty, staff, and students to join us in this enlightening symposium.

It is worth mentioning that this symposium is jointly supported by the Alliance of International Science Organizations (ANSO). The ANSO-sponsored international workshop has successfully convened four times in different locations, including Istanbul, Turkey (September 2021), Amman, Jordan (March 2022), Marrakesh, Morocco (October 2022), and Crete, Greece (March 2023). The primary objective of this symposium is to foster stronger scientific research collaborations and exchanges among scientists and engineers working together to develop innovative porous materials specifically designed for carbon capture applications.
