A metal-organic framework coating may be employed in a molten salt reactor system to capture gaseous fission products produced as a consequence of operation. The metal-organic framework coating may include one or more metal-organic frameworks configured to capture certain fission products based on the need, for example tritium fluoride, tritium gas, and hydrogen fluoride. The one or more metal-organic frameworks may be immobilized onto a substrate and formed into a coating covering the substrate. In many cases, the substrate is the stainless-steel surfaces of reactor enclosures and vessels. In other cases, the substrate may be suspended into a headspace of a vessel of a salt-bearing component, or may be included in an off-gas processing system of a reactor system.
