MIL-160 was synthesized by linking aluminum chloride hexahydrate (99%, Acros Organics) with 2, 5-furandicarboxylic acid (98%, Alfa Aesar), through a hydrothermal method.32 Specifically, a precursor compromised of dissolved 2, 5-furandicarboxylic acid, aluminum chloride hexahydrate and sodium hydroxide (extra pure, Acros Organics) was suspended in deionized water in a mole ratio of 1.0: 1.0: 2.1: 1000. The precursor was subsequently dosed in a Teflon-lined stainless steel autoclave and heated at a temperature of 363 K for 24 hrs. After hydrothermal reaction and cooling to room temperature, the products were filtered on cellulose filters of grade 1 (Whatman) and washed extensively with deionized water to remove any unreacted species. The filter paper was then dried overnight at room temperature and the resulting products were removed and stored in a vacuum chamber, again, at room temperature.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
