Abstract

We report the first use of a pressure-assisted sintering technique on metal-organic framework powders, allowing for the fast production of crystalline macroporous monoliths. Mechanical and microstructural characterization of the monoliths is presented. The interconnected macroporosity of the compacts can be adjusted, providing an immense interface for gas-solid interaction. The sintering technique is well-established and commercially available, allowing industrial scale-up of the process.
