The NIST Registry of Adsorbent Materials

The NIST Registry of Adsorbent Materials

The NIST Registry of Adsorbent Materials is a free, web-based catalog of adsorbent materials and metadata describing those adsorbent materials. Each adsorbent material in the registry is assigned a registry ID to 1) allow unique identification adsorbents independent of arbitrary naming schemes (e.g., HKUST-1, CuBTC, Basolate C300® are the same material and have the same registry ID) and 2) enable cross referencing information about each material from outside databases and material registries. The registry ID is based on a cryptographic hash, to prevent ID collisions as the registry grows in content.

This web application also includes a mechanism for users to provide feedback regarding entries in the registry, to facilitate growth and correction of the database contents. Current feedback options, available through the "User Feedback" menu item are 1) general comments, 2) revision of a database entry (e.g., addition of an external data resource about a specific material), 3) propose a new material for the registry, and 4) propose the merger of two materials already in the registry.

The database contents may be accessed through an application programming interface (API). The different API functions are listed on the page accessible via the "API" menu item.
