Structural transition from two-dimensional ZIF-L to three-dimensional ZIF-8 nanoparticles in aqueous room temperature synthesis with improved CO2 adsorption

A new micron-sized leaf- two-dimensional (2D) structured zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-L) and nano-sized ZIF-8 were successfully synthesised in aqueous basic solution at room temperature with the same molar ratio of reagents (Zn+ 2/Hmim = 8). Both ZIFs have attracted tremendous research intere...
