Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.
The fluid-gel/spin-coating approach is generalisable to other Zr-based MOFs, demonstrated first-hand for MOF-801 and MOF-808 films.
Caveat: The paper reports film morphology and GIXRD preservation for MOF-801/MOF-808, but no transport data for those films.

Sub-100 nm UiO-66 films provide larger interfacial charge-carrier diffusion coefficients and stable current under applied field, supporting electrocatalysis/electrochemical-storage relevance.
Caveat: The paper measures model CV/chronoamperometry behaviour rather than demonstrating a full electrocatalytic or storage device.

The UiO-66 topology and permanent porosity are preserved in the fluid gel, with additional mesoporosity and increased pore volume attributed to defect formation during downsizing.
Caveat: Defect-site attribution is based on GIXRD features and porosity trends, not a full defect quantification.
p004 / 30847 · Results and Discussion · Figure S3 · Linked to 5 structured results
Rapid high-concentration solvothermal synthesis plus ultrasonication downsizes UiO-66 to approximately 10 nm particles and produces a free-flowing fluid gel suitable for spin coating.
Caveat: Mechanistic statement is authors' interpretation based on morphology/rheology rather than direct time-resolved growth evidence.

UiO-66 fluid gel enables water-based spin coating of smooth films with controllable 40-150 nm thickness by changing suspension concentration and spin speed.

Lower conductivity in films thicker than 100 nm is hypothesised to arise from greater roughness causing carrier scattering and lower defect concentration reducing carrier density.
Caveat: The paper explicitly frames this as a hypothesis; direct carrier-density or defect-concentration quantification is not reported.
p005 / 30848 · Results and Discussion · Figure S10; Figure S11 · Linked to 4 structured results
Sub-100 nm pristine UiO-66 nanofilms show markedly higher electrical conductivity and lower activation energy than thicker films/bulk powder.
Caveat: Authors state that more investigations are needed to elucidate the origin of electrical conductivity in ultrathin UiO-66 films.
