Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ionic crystals are normally non-porous because of the isotropic and long-range Coulomb interactions. However, the use of molecular ions with appropriate elements, charges, sizes, shapes, or ligands enables the formation of pores. Polyoxometalates (POMs) are nano-sized metal-oxide macroanions, and have stimulated research in broad fields of science. Since POMs bear negative charges, they are potentially useful as building blocks of porous crystals in combination with appropriate macrocations. In this work, selective Cs+ uptake from aqueous solutions by an porous ionic crystal, and synthesis of mesoporous ionic crystals and with high proton conductivity and acid catalysis are reported.
