Facile Synthesis and Characterization of ZIF-8 Nanocrystals
Abstract: Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) are important subclass of porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The ZIFs structure has zeolitic framework topologies wherein all tetrahedral atoms are transition metal ions and are bridged by imidazolate (IM) units. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is a prototypical member of ZIF family, constituted from zinc metal ions and 2-methylimidazole as bridging linkers. ZIF-8 nanocrystals have gained significant research interest in recent past due to its applications in …
