Abstract
The single crystal of a metal-organic framework (MOF) or polyurethane network is easily broken into fragments by putting a small weight, shown by a cat or a dog, on it due to its fragility. In contrast, integration of the MOF single crystal with polyurethanes through covalent bonds significantly enhances its durability. The integrated crystal deforms, but it maintains a substantial crystal structure without being destroyed, even under the great weight of an elephant. More details can be found in article number e202400642 by Shizuka Anan, Kazuki Sada, and Kenta Kokado.
期刊介绍:
Organic chemistry is the fundamental science that stands at the heart of chemistry, biology, and materials science. Research in these areas is vigorous and truly international, with three major regions making almost equal contributions: America, Europe and Asia. Asia now has its own top international organic chemistry journal—the Asian Journal of Organic Chemistry (AsianJOC)
The AsianJOC is designed to be a top-ranked international research journal and publishes primary research as well as critical secondary information from authors across the world. The journal covers organic chemistry in its entirety. Authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories.
