DESCRIPTION:Daniel Steitz\nnovoMOF AG\nPark Innovaare\, Villigen\, Switzer
 land\nChE-605 - Highlights in Energy Research seminar series\n\nMetal-orga
 nic frameworks (MOFs) are novel porous materials and the fastest growing c
 lass of materials in chemistry today. These advanced materials can be comp
 ared with sponges\, being able to take-up\, hold and release molecules fro
 m the pores. MOFs are the next technology wave\, as the outperform convent
 ional porous materials and offer new competitive application in various in
 dustries from energy\, automotive\, cleantech to the pharmaceutical sector
 .\nFor instance\, charging times of batteries can be reduced to minutes\, 
 the lifetime of packaged food can be prolonged or gases such as carbon dio
 xide and natural gas can be separated\, purified or stored. We partner wit
 h leaders from different industries who want to exploit MOFs early as an i
 nnovation opportunity. We at novoMOF AG enable and shape this process earl
 y on by providing such companies access to custom MOFs based on their inte
 nded application.\n\nnovoMOF AG is a spinoff from the Paul Scherrer Instit
 ute (PSI) and with focus on synthesis and production of metal-organic fra
 meworks (MOF). We provide MOFs at the speed\, scale and quality that our c
 ustomers require.\n\nThe seminar can be followed remotely by joining the o
 nline Cisco WebEx meeting (connection possible 15 minutes before the talk)
 .\nSee here the documentation how to install the Cisco WebEx add-on on you
