General description

Basolite®C 300 is a metal organic framework (MOF). It is a crystallized hybrid porous solid built up from inorganic subunits, which are connected to organic linkers such as carboxylates or phosphonates. It is a commercialized sorbent that has the structure of HKUST-1.[1][2]
HKUST-1 is also known as MOF-199, Cu-BTC and Basolite(TM) C300. HKUST-1 is a blue cubic crystal of copper based ultramicroporous metal framework (MOF). It is prepared by solvothermal method. It could have a surface area of nearly 2200 m2/g2.[3]
MOF (metal organic framework)
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Find details here.

Application

Basolite®C 300 can be used in the adsorption of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and liquid absorption of dibenzothiopene.[1][4]
Used for gas adsorption (carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen gas), catalysis, and separations

Other Notes

can be reactivated at 200°C (vacuum)

Metal-organic frameworks offer high surface area materials for alternative energy applications through simple synthetic strategies.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
