Calculated useable surface coverages (Δθ) and gravimetric and volumetric O2 working capacities for nine frameworks discussed in the text as implemented in VTSA process with Pads = 0.21 bar O2 at 298 K and Pdes = 0.01 bar at 338 K. Gravimetric working capacities (mmol g−1) were obtained by multiplying Δθ by estimated gravimetric O2 capacities for each MOF, determined in most cases from the inflection point of the experimental isosteric heat of adsorption as a function of loading (see Section S5 of the ESI for details).a Volumetric working capacities (g L−1) were calculated by multiplying Δθ by the estimated volumetric O2 capacity for each framework (see Table S12 for details).

The inflection point was approximated from the second derivative of the enthalpy versus loading, estimated using the finite difference method.
