3. Stability of MOFs
The porous, periodic hybrid structure of MOFs is the key to the properties of these solids. It is therefore essential that this structure be maintained during the defined operating conditions. MOF stability is therefore a key parameter. It cannot, however, be defined as something absolute and depends on the conditions to which the solid is exposed. MOF stability can be classified into three main categories: chemical, thermal and mechanical.
3.1 Chemical stability
The chemical stability of a MOF can be defined as its ability to retain its structure by limiting coordination bond cleavage associated with framework degradation, when exposed to different chemical environments. To date, it has been observed that a number of MOFs tend to degrade in the presence of...
