Nuclear power will continue to provide energy for the foreseeable future, but it can pose
significant challenges in terms of the disposal of waste and potential release of untreated …

The enrichment of radioactive iodine in the waste of nuclear industries threatens human
health, and thus the efficient capture of iodine has attracted a great deal of attention in recent …

The targeted synthesis of a series of novel charged porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs) is
reported. The compounds PAF‐23, PAF‐24, and PAF‐25 are built up by a tetrahedral …

{[Cu6 (pybz) 8 (OH) 2]· I5–· I7–} n (1), obtained hydrothermally by using iodine molecules as
a versatile precursor template, consists of a cationic framework with two types of zigzag …

Materials that show reversible structure transformation and a characteristic response toward
specific external stimuli are vitally important for applications in sensing, molecular capture …

A series of porous organic cages is examined for the selective adsorption of sulfur
hexafluoride (SF6) over nitrogen. Despite lacking any metal sites, a porous cage, CC3 …

Structural changes are accompanied by the movements of atoms/molecules and hence
transformation of one structure to another is difficult in the solid state due to the restricted …

Seemingly non-porous organic solids have the ability for guest transport and have also been
shown to absorb gases, including hydrogen, methane and acetylene, to varied extents …

Nanoporous Molecular Crystals (NMCs) are nanoporous materials composed of discrete
molecules between which there are only non-covalent interactions—ie they do not possess …

Most nanoporous materials with molecular-scale pores are composed of directional covalent
or coordination bonds, such as porous metal–organic frameworks and organic network …
