Design Porous Materials
CSD-Frameworks
CSD-Frameworks is used to accelerate MOF and other porous materials research, optimize materials design, and gain deeper insights into porous materials — all using trusted experimental and curated data from the CSD.
What is Included in CSD-Frameworks?
Giving access to a full crystal structure visualization and analysis software package, CSD-Frameworks enables pore and void characterization, solvate and guest molecule analysis, and chemical and structural searches.
CSD-Frameworks provides access to the entire Cambridge Structural Database (CSD), including a curated collection of 100,000+ MOF structures.
CSD-Frameworks Features
Access to the CSD including a curated and enhanced MOF subset
Access the full Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) of 1.3M+ structures, including 100,000+ experimentally determined MOF structures. Work with high-quality, curated data that is ready for computational analysis.
Advanced Visualization & Analysis
Explore crystal structures, including void space, pore dimensionality, guest analysis, and dimensionality. Easily modify symmetry. Easily analyse structural properties.
Efficient Data Mining & Search
Identify structures based on chemical connectivity, ligands, or functional groups. Find similar frameworks to guide new material design using the structure similarity tool.
Integrated Powder Diffraction Capabilities
Simulate and compare powder diffraction patterns from single-crystal structures. Validate experimental data efficiently.
Customizable Solvent & Guest Molecule Analysis
Define and analyse guest molecules within porous structures. Calculate solvent-accessible volumes for adsorption studies.
