Nanostructures of diverse chemical nature are used as biomarkers, therapeutics, catalysts,
and structural reinforcements. The decoration with surfactants has a long history and is …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted extensive research interest due to their
rich structure chemistry and many potential industrial applications in the areas of gas …

Reported herein are two new polymorphic Co‐MOFs (CTGU‐5 and‐6) that can be
selectively crystallized into the pure 2D or 3D net using an anionic or neutral surfactant …

During the past two decades, the search of strategies to introduce polyoxometalate (POM)
clusters as secondary building units (SBUs) to construct porous extended POM-organic …

Metal sulfide ion-exchangers (MSIEs) represent a new addition to the field of ion exchange
materials. This is a growing class of materials that display exceptional selectivity and rapid …

Given that surfactants can control the shape and size of micro‐/nanoparticles, they should
be able to direct the growth of bulk crystals. This Minireview summarizes recent …

The introduction of organic functionalities into porous inorganic materials not only makes the
resulting hybrid porous framework to be more flexible and hydrophobic, but also provides …

Intercalation is a reversible insertion process of foreign species into crystal gaps. Layered
materials are good host materials for various intercalant species ranging from small ions to …

The low cost of adsorption treatment of heavy metal ions in water has been extensively
studied. In this paper, we have demonstrated a facile method of combining two emerging …

Replacing the CH groups in the backbones of acenes with heteroatoms offers scientists
greater opportunities to tune their properties, as the type, position, number, and the valence …
