The crystal–liquid–glass phase transition of coordination polymers (CPs) and metal–organic
frameworks (MOFs) offers attractive opportunities as a new class of amorphous materials …

The field of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) has been incorrectly believed to be purely
crystalline. However, non-crystalline MOFs (amorphous MOFs, MOF liquids, and MOF …

Membranes with ultrahigh permeance and practical selectivity could greatly decrease the
cost of difficult industrial gas separations, such as CH4/N2 separation. Advanced …

Glassy materials, with desirable mechanical rigidity, shaping ability, high transparency, are
attracting great interest in diverse fields. However, optically bulk molecule‐based glasses …

Glasses are materials that lack a crystalline microstructure and long‐range atomic order.
Instead, they feature heterogeneity and disorder on superstructural scales, which have …

The melting phenomenon in metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) has been recognised as
one of the fourth generation MOF paradigm behaviours. Molten MOFs have high …

Hybrid glasses from melt-quenched metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been emerging
as a new class of materials, which combine the functional properties of crystalline MOFs with …

The melting behaviour of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) has aroused significant
research interest in the areas of materials science, condensed matter physics and chemical …

The interface within a composite is critically important for the chemical and physical
properties of these materials. However, experimental structural studies of the interfacial …

Molten phases of metal–organic networks offer exciting opportunities for using coordination
chemistry principles to access liquids and glasses with unique and tunable structures and …
