The uptake and adsorption enthalpy of carbon dioxide at 0.2 bar have been studied in three different topical porous MOF samples, HKUST-1, UiO-66(Zr), and MIL-100(Fe), after having been pre-equilibrated under different relative humidities (3, 10, 20, 40%) of water vapor. If in the case of microporous...
