NOTT-202

NOTT-202 is a two-part chemical compound that is capable of selectively absorbing carbon dioxide.{{cite journal |author=Sihai Yang |display-authors=etal|date=June 3, 2012 |title=A partially interpenetrated metal–organic framework for selective hysteretic sorption of carbon dioxide |journal=Nature Materials |volume= 11|issue=8 |pages=710–716 |doi=10.1038/nmat3343 |pmid=22660661|bibcode=2012NatMa..11..710Y}} It is a metal–organic framework (MOF) that functions like a sponge, adsorbing selected gases at high pressures. Its creation was announced by scientists in 2012.{{cite web |last1=Thorne |first1=Emma |title=Media release: Potential carbon capture role for new CO2 absorbing material |url=https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/news/pressreleases/2012/june/potential-carbon-capture-role-for-new-co2-absorbing-material.aspx |publisher=University of Nottingham |access-date=23 February 2019}} The researchers claimed this structure was an entirely new class of porous material.{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-18396655 |title=New holey material soaks up CO2 |publisher=BBC News |date=June 12, 2012 |access-date=June 14, 2012 }}
