Could a carbon 'sponge' simply soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere? 🧽🫧 Indeed! @alexforse1 and team created a low-cost material to adsorb CO₂ with high energy-efficiency. Here's my latest article for @ChemistryWorld 👉🏻 https://t.co/CThs8kNASV

MOFs with discrete redox-active sites are redox conductors! Electric conductivity will depend on the applied potential, and maximize at the redox potential of the site. Great work by Jingguo Li, Amol Kumar and @Drbenjohnsoniii OA in @NatureComms
