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: High

Ti-dobdc-LiBr is the most balanced conductor because it combines high water uptake, moderate Li-halide character, and better high-temperature retention than LiI.

Caveat: LiI has the highest 298 K/90% RH conductivity among 1:1 samples, while LiBr is favoured for stability/retention.

Phase AssignmentSupport assessment: High

LiX is intercalated between Ti-dobdc layers for the 1:1 samples rather than remaining only as external salt.

Caveat: Higher LiX ratios produced pristine LiX PXRD peaks, so this claim applies most cleanly to the selected 1:1 samples.

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: High

LiX incorporation improves ionic conductivity relative to pristine Ti-dobdc by increasing water uptake and adding mobile Li+ transport.

Caveat: Conductivity retention at high temperature depends strongly on the halide; LiI shows iodine-release caveats.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: Medium

High-humidity conduction crosses into a low-activation-energy regime assigned to Grotthuss-type proton diffusion.

Caveat: Individual activation energies are plotted rather than tabulated; threshold is textual/graphical.

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: High

PFG-NMR supports cooperative H+ and Li+ mobility; Li+ mobility helps retain high conductivity at elevated temperatures.

Caveat: PFG-NMR fitting includes alternative models, but the authors selected the unidirectional model.
