Special Session 10
NANOPOROUS MATERIALS (SS10)

Nanoporous materials, characterized by their high surface area, tunable pore sizes, and exceptional structural properties, remain at the forefront of nanotechnology and materials science. This special session aims to bring together a diverse community of researchers to discuss the latest breakthroughs from foundational understanding and development to the practical deployment of these materials.

The session will focus on both fundamental research and innovative technological applications. We welcome contributions covering various classes of nanoporous systems, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), zeolites, porous carbons, mesoporous silicas, and porous polymers. Discussions will span from computational modeling and tailored synthesis to specialized characterization and process scale-up, addressing critical global challenges.

TOPICS:

  • Advanced synthesis, pore engineering, and hybrid/composite porous designs.
  • Innovative in-situ, operando, and specialized characterization techniques.
  • Gas storage and separation (carbon capture, hydrogen storage, gas purification).
  • Catalysis and photocatalysis utilizing porous architectures.
  • Energy storage and conversion (supercapacitors, batteries, fuel cells).
  • Environmental remediation and pollutant removal (water and air purification).
  • Biomedical applications (drug delivery, biosensing, tissue engineering).
  • Computational modeling, molecular simulation, and machine learning tools.
  • Process engineering, scale-up, and pilot plant validation of nanoporous systems.

This session offers a vibrant platform to exchange ideas, foster interdisciplinary collaborations, and explore future trends in nanoporous materials. Participants will have the opportunity to present their research, engage in high-level networking, and drive the field toward sustainable industrial applications.
