General remarks

  • Some nice materials, generally appreciated and COMOC is starting

to become known as center of expertise in synthesis of “new” porous materials (COMOC is founded in 2007)

  • Our materials also used in collaboration in

▫ Dentistry (University Hospital) ▫ Pesticides (bio-engineers – adsorption and controlled release)

  • Need to adapt processes to cost and advanced level of the materials

themselves ▫ High end reactions, selectivity, chirality ▫ Sensors, catalysts ▫ Stability can compensate for cost
