Abstract:
For the first time, high surface area uniformly nitrogen (N)- and boron-nitrogen (BN)-decorated nanoporous carbons have been successfully fabricated by impregnation of ionic liquids (ILs) within a metal-organic framework (MOF), MIL-100(Al), followed by carbonization, which exhibit remarkable CO2 and H2 adsorption capacities.

2.0K
Organometallic compounds are compounds that contain a carbon–metal bond. Carbon belongs to an organyl group like alkyl, aryl, allyl, or benzyl groups. The metal can be from Group I or Group II of the periodic table, a transition metal, or a semimetal.

Network covalent solids contain a three-dimensional network of covalently bonded atoms as found in the crystal structures of nonmetals like diamond, graphite, silicon, and some covalent compounds, such as silicon dioxide (sand) and silicon carbide (carborundum, the abrasive on sandpaper). Many minerals have networks of covalent bonds.
To break or to melt a covalent network solid, covalent bonds must be broken. Because covalent bonds are relatively strong, covalent network solids are typically...
