The metal organic framework, MOF-74(Ni), was synthesized in a continuous flow microwave-assisted reactor obtaining a high space-time yield (~90 g h⁻¹ L⁻¹) and 96.5% conversion of reagents. Separation of the nucleation and growth steps was performed by using uniform and rapid microwave heating to induce nucleation, which allowed a substantial...
The development of nanomaterials and the potential enhancement of their chemical, mechanical, electrical, and optical properties have led to the investigation of methods for their synthesis at lower cost with enhanced performance for next generation devices. Along with the pursuit of new materials that exhibit properties of interest, industry requires...
