One-step C 2 H 4 purification from a mixture of C 2 H 2 /C 2 H 4 /C 2 H 6 by physical adsorption separation was realized via creating an ethane trap in MOF NTUniv-63 by the utilization of a ketone-decorated semirigid ligand, which has further been verified by the breakthrough experiment, isosteric heats of adsorption ( Q st ), and Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) modeling.
