Kinetic separation of hexane isomers by fixed-bed adsorption with a microporous metal-organic framework. JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY B. ISSN: 1520-6106. 111:22, p. 6101- 6103http://hdl.handle.net/10198/3306A three-dimensional microporous metal-organic framework Zn(BDC)(Dabco)(0.5) (BDC = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate, Dabco = 1,4-diazabicyclo [2,2,2]octane), having two types of intersecting pores to encapsulate linear hexane and to block branched hexanes, and thus exhibiting highly selective sorption with respect to n-hexane, has been successfully applied to the kinetic separation of hexane isomers by fixed-bed adsorption.engAdsorptionjournal article10.1021/jp0721898
