Description
Summary:Different from the conventional synthesis approaches, such as hydrothermal or solvothermal synthesis, a porous metal azolate framework encapsulating Keggin‐type [SiW12O40]4− anions was prepared by an environmentally friendly, low‐cost, and highly efficient steam‐assisted conversion method for the first time. The nanosized polyoxometalates as a template were encapsulated by a zeotype 6448 cage constructed by 28 nuclear zinc atoms connected through 32 Trz ligands. The obtained composite exhibits excellent thermal and chemical stability; meanwhile, its special ability to selectively absorb water from alcohols makes it efficiently separate water from analytically pure ethanol, with the result that water content decreases from 0.23 to 0.05 wt %, which is superior to the standard of chromatographic grade ethanol (
