Our paper about "MOCOFs" is now out on Nature Synthesis! They are cyborgs of #MOFs and #COFs with combined properties. Thanks to @stecanossa.bsky.social and @agvsl.bsky.social for making the precise analysis possible. #pormatsky #chemsky

Today I am talking in my reticular materials class about the stability of MOFs, where I show this great figure of stability in phosphate buffer. It is always important to specify that stable means in what context! From this great paper: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Looking into reliable and longterm spectroscopic data storage I realized the ubiquity of the JCAMP-DX files.
But why are they so complicated. Why not a good old X-Y file?
I can imagine an digital archeologist finding these in 100 years and rolling their eyes.

The jet engine turbine blades are each gigantic single crystals?! And yet they contain a controlled degree of correlated disorder?! I will take a closer look when I fly next time…

New device arrived at our group! Leica CPD300 critical point dryer, capable of automatic supercritical CO2 treatment. Useful for removing solvents from MOFs and COFs without affecting the framework structure.

Every now and then I might post important concepts on single crystal diffraction analysis from my recent review. Today, this wrapped-up version of figure 1 reminds us what we lose in the process, and what we actually gain at the end: a model 💎
