TLDR
In this paper, a review of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and porous coordination polymers (PCPs) with selected examples of their structures, concepts for linkers, syntheses, post-synthesis modifications, metal nanoparticle formations in MOFs, porosity and zeolitic behavior for applications in gas storage for hydrogen, carbon dioxide, methane and applications in conductivity, luminescence and catalysis.
Abstract
This review (over 380 references) summarizes metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), Materials Institute Lavoisier (MILs), iso-reticular metal–organic frameworks (IR-MOFs), porous coordination networks (PCNs), zeolitic metal–organic frameworks (ZMOFs) and porous coordination polymers (PCPs) with selected examples of their structures, concepts for linkers, syntheses, post-synthesis modifications, metal nanoparticle formations in MOFs, porosity and zeolitic behavior for applications in gas storage for hydrogen, carbon dioxide, methane and applications in conductivity, luminescence and catalysis.
