New materials are prerequisite for major breakthrough applications influencing our daily life, and
therefore are pivotal for the chemical industry. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) constitute an
emerging class of materials useful in gas storage, gas purification and separation applications as
well as heterogeneous catalysis. They not only offer higher surface areas and the potential for

selectivity which is important both for separations and catalysis. In this critical review an
overview of the potential applications of MOFs in the chemical industry is presented.
