Abstract

Single (MT-1) and inter-penetrated (int-MT-1) metal organic frameworks were synthesized via solvothermal method from the reaction of zinc nitrate hexahydrate and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid in N,N¢-dimethylformamide (DMF). The morphologies of resulting materials were observed under NHV-CAM microscope. The structures of the single and inter-penetrated frameworks respectively resulted in MT-1 and int-MT-1 were analyzed by powder X-ray diffraction analysis (PXRD) and their thermal stability was also determined by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The porosity of these two materials was proved by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method through N2 isotherms at 77 K. The results showed that two materials with single and inter-penetrated frameworks were successfully synthesized as expected. Both materials are highly crystalline with high thermal stability and porosity.
