Author interpretations and caveats

Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.

Application RelevanceSupport assessment: Medium

This work reports the first MOF-based hydroxide-ion conductor / first MOF including freely exchangeable OH- ions.

Caveat: Priority claim is the authors' literature claim as of publication, not independently verified in this extraction.

1702 · Abstract · Linked to 2 structured results

Phase AssignmentSupport assessment: High

The ZIF-8 framework structure is retained during strongly alkaline salt-inclusion treatment and ion exchange.

Caveat: XRPD and BET support framework retention; detailed Rietveld parameters are reported for NBu4-ZIF-8 but not for NBu4-ZIF-8-OH.

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: High

NBu4-ZIF-8-OH contains freely exchangeable OH- ions in the MOF pores, estimated by CO2 chemisorption after ion exchange.

Caveat: Air exposure converts OH- to carbonate/bicarbonate species; authors took glovebox/N2 precautions for measurements.

Synthesis MechanismSupport assessment: High

Tetrabutylammonium salts can be immobilised inside ZIF-8 pores through hydrophobic interactions between alkyl groups and the hydrophobic ZIF-8 framework.

Caveat: The interaction mechanism is inferred from retention after washing and structural/spectroscopic evidence rather than directly measured binding energies.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: Medium

The ionic conductivity is mainly derived from anionic species rather than diffusion of aprotic NBu4+ ions.

Caveat: The detailed conducting mechanism is explicitly stated to remain under investigation.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: Medium

Humidity increases NBu4-ZIF-8-OH conductivity, plausibly through hydrogen-bonding networks of OH- and water molecules in ZIF-8 pores.

Caveat: Authors state the conducting mechanism is still under investigation and note unfavorable features such as small ZIF-8 apertures.
