Reacción a "Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded to Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson, and Omar M. Yaghi for creating porous materials with blocks of molecules that capture substances and drive reactions "

I am deeply happy that the Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded to Professors Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson, and Omar M. Yaghi for the development of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). These extraordinary materials combine enormous chemical and structural tunability with high porosity, giving them unprecedented potential to address some of the great challenges facing our society. Their applications range from CO₂ capture and controlled drug release to atmospheric water harvesting in arid regions, among many others.

This recognition highlights years of visionary research and consolidates MOFs as one of the most versatile and promising materials in modern chemistry.
