Abstract Thermal energy management in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is an important, yet often neglected, challenge for many adsorption-based applications such as gas storage and separations. Despite its importance, there is insufficient understanding of the structure-property relationships governing thermal transport in MOFs. To provide a data-driven perspective into these relationships, here we perform large-scale computational screening of thermal conductivity
k in MOFs, leveraging classical molecular dynamics simulations and 10,194 hypothetical MOFs created using the ToBaCCo 3.0 code. We found that high thermal conductivity in MOFs is favored by high densities (> 1.0 g cm−3), small pores (< 10 Å), and four-connected metal nodes. We also found that 36 MOFs exhibit ultra-low thermal conductivity (< 0.02 W m−1 K−1), which is primarily due to having extremely large pores (~65 Å). Furthermore, we discovered six hypothetical MOFs with very high thermal conductivity (> 10 W m−1 K−1), the structures of which we describe in additional detail. -
Building a knowledge graph is a time-consuming and costly process which often applies complex natural language processing (NLP) methods for extracting knowledge graph triples from text corpora. Pre-trained large Language Models (PLM) have emerged as a crucial type of approach that provides readily available knowledge for a range of AI applications. However, it is unclear whether it is feasible to construct domain-specific knowledge graphs from PLMs. Motivated by the capacity of knowledge graphs to accelerate data-driven materials discovery, we explored a set of state-of-the-art pre-trained general-purpose and domain-specific language models to extract knowledge triples for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). We created a knowledge graph benchmark with 7 relations for 1248 published MOF synonyms. Our experimental results showed that domain-specific PLMs consistently outperformed the general-purpose PLMs for predicting MOF related triples. The overall benchmarking results, however, show that using the present PLMs to create domain-specific knowledge graphs is still far from being practical, motivating the need to develop more capable and knowledgeable pre-trained language models for particular applications in materials science.more » « less
