Understanding the kinetic and thermodynamic origins of xylene separation in UiO-66(Zr) via molecular simulation

Xylene isomers are precursors in many important chemical processes, yet their separation via crystallization or distillation is energy intensive. Adsorption presents an attractive, lower-energy alternative and the discovery of adsorbents which outperform the current state-of-the-art zeolitic materia...
