The separation of light hydrocarbons like methane, ethane, and propane is an important section of the chemical industry. Herein, we reported a novel porous metal–organic framework (MOF) Cu-IPA and investigated its CH4/C2H6/C3H8 separation performance, particularly for efficient capture of C2H6 and C...
