Abstract

NTUniv-80 exhibits record-high volumetric and gravimetric acetylene (C₂H₂) uptakes of 210 cm³ (STP) g^-1 and 227 cm³ (STP) cm^-3 at 295 K and 1 atm, respectively. Grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulation indicates that those remarkable C₂H₂ uptakes are attributed to the open Cu²⁺ sites and tailored cages.
