Since it hasn't been covered yet in this article, I'm planning on adding a section under "Additional potential applications" about the potential of MOFs to capture carbon dioxide out of flue gas Jesikatrese (talk) 03:58, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

I would like to add a section under "additional potential application" of MOFs being utilized in artificial photosynthesis, specifically as the light-harvesting/capturing system. Ja9young (talk) 06:22, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

According to Chemical Abstracts:

• 32486 articles, patents, reports discuss MOF's
• 1691 of these articles are reviews
• 1089 reviews in English have appeared since 2012

THAT is the pool of articles that we should be citing. Otherwise editors risk using Wikipedia for a technical journal (see WP:NOTJOURNAL), or a forum for promoting their own work (see WP:COI). Remember, Wikipedia is not Chemical Reviews, it presents an overview.

This article needs to do a better job of distinguishing between the two. At what point can a material be called a MOF? FSeg500 (talk) 13:56, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
