Counter-intuitively, a decreased affinity for CO2 was observed in the functionalised materials, compared to the non-functionalised material. This result highlights the importance of considering the combined effects of network topology and chemical functionality in the design of MOFs for enhanced CO2 adsorptionenCopyright status unknownDoes functionalisation enhance CO₂ uptake in interpenetrated MOFs?
