A fast and efficient mechanosynthesis (ball-milling) method of preparing amorphous zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) from different starting materials is discussed. Using X-ray total scattering, N(2) sorption analysis, and gas pycnometry, these frameworks are indistinguishable from one another and from temperature-amorphized ZIFs. Gas sorption analysis also confirms that they are nonporous once formed, in contrast to activated ZIF-4, which displays interesting gate-opening behavior. Nanoparticles of a prototypical nanoporous substituted ZIF, ZIF-8, were also prepared and shown to undergo amorphization.
讨论了一种快速高效的机械合成(球磨)方法,可从不同起始材料制备无定形沸石咪唑酯骨架(ZIFs)。使用 X 射线总散射、N2 吸附分析和气体比重计,这些骨架彼此之间以及与温度非晶化的 ZIF 之间没有区别。气体吸附分析还证实,一旦形成,它们是无孔的,与具有有趣的门控开启行为的活化 ZIF-4 形成对比。还制备了一种典型的纳米多孔取代 ZIF-ZIF-8 的纳米颗粒,并显示其发生非晶化。
