Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), owing to their ordered porous structure, ease of synthesis, and versatility of surface functionalization have attracted significant research interests for membrane-based separations. Zeolitic-imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), a subclass of MOFs, have drawn the most rese...
