The new porous phosphine coordination material, PCM-11, is an unusual 8,4-connected coordination polymer with an open 3-D pore structure, formed by reaction of Mg(II) with tris(para-carboxylato)triphenylphosphine oxide. The highly ionic nature of the metal-ligand bonding results in excellent thermal stability upon desolvation (>460 °C). PCM-11 is easily activated for small molecule sorption at ...

The dynamic configuration of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) in an aqueous dispersion is revealed by several characterization methods, showing a spontaneous and seemingly irreversible configuration transition from flat to highly corrugated sheets over time. Such dynamic behaviour of rGO leads to a tailored porous structure of graphene-based thin films. This affects their permeation and electrochem...
