A facile extrusion approach that can fully retain the breathing behavior of flexible metal-organic frameworks (MOF) like MIL-53 and MIL-53-NH2 employing methyl cellulose as binder is reported. Shaped MOF extrudates were extensively characterized by nitrogen sorption, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy. A detailed study on the mechanical stability of MIL-53 extrudates with different amounts of binder reveals an increase in stability at low binder fractions while the maximum in attainable stability is reached at 5 wt.-% binder. In-situ XRD studies in CO2 atmosphere and under humid conditions, respectively, demonstrate the reversibility in breathing behavior of the MIL-53 extrudates without affecting the phase transition kinetics. High-pressure methane and carbon dioxide isotherms on MIL-53 and MIL-53-NH2 extrudates exhibit loadings that are comparable to the uptake of the pristine powder. The shaping approach reported herein paves the way for using flexible MOF structures in technical applications.
