Abstract
The search for innovative solutions to environmental and social challenges is undoubtedly crucial in materials science, especially in the field of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). This review describes the history of MOFs, as well as seven methods of MOF synthesis and their advantages and disadvantages, such as hydrothermal method, microwave-assisted method, and so on. Humans have made significant progress in synthesizing various MOF materials for gas storage, transportation, and other applications, but there is still much to be explored and understood about these complex substances. As researchers strive to discover new materials and their potential uses, a huge untapped area of potential awaits further exploration. Ultimately, the key to meeting environmental and societal challenges lies in the advancement and creative design of MOFs.
