A molecular thread: Flexible metal–organic frameworks with a range of pore sizes are made by threading through molecular ligands

3 diciembre 2014

The ability to ‘thread’ a molecular ligand through a metal-organic framework (MOF) to alter the pore size of the material — and yet allow the MOF to retain its crystallinity and principal structural features — has been demonstrated in a new study.
