Titel
High performance metal-organic-framework coatings obtained via thermal gradient synthesis
Abstract
For many possible applications of metal-organic frameworks, a coating onto a metallic support capable of both superior heat and mass transfer is required. A heated substrate in contact with a chilled solution of metal salt and linker reproducibly yields polycrystalline, highly stable, thermally conductive MOF coatings at a growth rate of 50 mu m h(-1), illustrated by the formation of Cu-3(btc)(2) as an example.
