    Abstract

    The multivariate modulation of MOFs allows for the simultaneous introduction of multiple functionalities at defect sites during synthesis, enhancing the MOF porosity. By the thoughtful choice of modulators’ functionalities targeted at CO 2 adsorption, the designed dimodulated MOF, UiO-66-NH 2 /SO 3 , has a 6.6 mmol g −1 CO 2 adsorption at 273 K and 1 bar, a 2.3-fold increase compared to the pristine MOF and a 1.6-fold enhancement compared to the single-modulated MOFs. This enhancement is due to the cooperative effect of functional units, which is supported by Monte Carlo simulations.
