Article Synopsis
- * The authors present a new method for creating MOFs using non-equilibrium flame aerosol synthesis, which allows for the creation of both nano-crystalline and amorphous MOFs.
- * This innovative synthesis can produce complex MOFs with multiple metal cations and has the potential for high-performance applications, such as using these materials in catalysts for CO oxidation, making it suitable for scalable industrial production.
Crystalline materials with uniform molecular-sized pores are desirable for a broad range of applications, such as sensors, catalysis, and separations. However, it is challenging to tune the pore size of a single material continuously and to reversibly distinguish small molecules (below 4 angstroms). We synthesized a series of ionic covalent organic frameworks using a tetraphenoxyborate linkage that maintains meticulous synergy between structural rigidity and local flexibility to achieve continuous and reversible (100 thermal cycles) tunability of "dynamic pores" between 2.
