Introduction

Yuxiu Sun received her Ph.D. in applied chemistry from Beijing University of Chemical Technology in 2007 under the supervision of Prof. Guangsheng Guo. After a postdoctoral research at Beijing University of Technology with Prof. Hui Yan and Prof. Jian-Rong Li, she continued her research work at University of South Florida as a visiting scholar in 2016. She joined the College of Chemical Engineering and Technology, Tiangong University in 2018. Her research interest focuses on developing functional porous MOF materials for membrane-based gas separation and CO₂ capture applications.
