Atoms in mixed-metal MOFs found to adopt predictable patterns – Chemistry World
Multi-metallic materials could be encoded with instructions for synthesis or separation
Layer-by-layer laser slicing of metalorganic frameworks (MOFs) has revealed that different metals in these materials arrange themselves in organised sequences rather than randomly as researchers had assumed. The team behind the work envisions that materials with multi-metal patterns could encode instructions to carry out series of chemical reactions.
MOFs are porous structures assembled from metals and organic linkers. Multivariate MOFs combine different types of metals,…
