Stimuli‐responsive phenomena are widely observed in nature. In their Research Article on page 11318, Chongli Zhong, Dan Zhao, and co‐workers report for pressure‐responsive metal–organic framework (MOF) composite membranes based on the gate‐opening effect that CO 2 molecules act as a “key” to open the MOF gates. Huge jumps of CO 2 permeance as well as CO 2 /N 2 and CO 2 /CH 4 selectivities occur above the gate‐opening pressure of the flexible MOF, demonstrating a smart gas separation behavior.
