Tuning Size and Properties of Zinc Ascorbate Metal-Organic Framework via Acid Modulation.

ABSTRACT: One of the biggest advantages of MOFs is the possibility of modifying their properties and tuning their inherent activity (i.e., sorption, storage, catalytic activity etc.). Textural properties can be tuned by manipulating process and compositional parameters, among which, the effect of additives can be even further distinguished among them based on the way they affect these properties. Beyond the effect that additives have on the size and morphology of nanoMOFs, there is also an effect on properties via creating point defects-missing linker and missing node defects. In this study, we investigated the effect of four monotopic acid modulators-formic, acetic, dichloroacetic and propionic acid, their concentration and the heating type (conventional and microwave-MW) on the size, morphology an
