The H-bonded arrays of watet molecules along with nitrogen-rich aromatic cation (protonated melamine) facilitate proton conduction in the compound under humid conditions. Although several reports of metal-oxalate/phosphate-based CPs showing proton conduction are known, this is the first designed synthesis of a metal sulfate-based CP bearing-Water arrays functioning as a solid-state proton conductor:</p>1 aManna, Biplab1 aAnothumakkool, Bihag1 aDesai, Aamod, V.1 aSamanta, Partha1 aKurungot, Sreekumar1 aGhosh, Sujit, K.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/coherent-fusion-water-array-and-protonated-amine-metal-sulfate-based-coordination-polymer-001827nas a2200253   4500008004100000245013400041210006900175260000800244300001600252490000700268520093800275100002201213700002301235700001801258700002001276700002101296700001801317700002101335700002501356700002101381700002101402700002101423856012901444       2016                        eng d00aUltrahydrophobic fluorous metal-organic framework derived recyclable composite as apromising platform to tackle marine oil spills0 aUltrahydrophobic fluorous metalorganic framework derived recycla  cJUL  a10937-109430 v223 aDerived from a strategically chosen hexafluorinated dicarboxylate linker aimed at the designed synthesis of a superhydrophobic metal-organic framework (MOF), the fluorine-rich nanospace of a water-stable MOF (UHMOF-100) exhibits excellent water-repellent features. It registered the highest water contact angle (approximate to 176 degrees) in the MOF domain, marking the first example of an ultrahydrophobic MOF. Various experimental and theoretical studies reinforce its distinc-tive water-repellent characteristics, and the conjugation of superoleophilicity and unparalleled hydrophobicity of a MOF material has been coherently exploited to achieve real-time oil/water separation in recyclable membrane form, with significant absorption capacity performance. This is also the first report of an oil/water separating fluorinated ultrahydrophobic MOF-based membrane material, with potential promise for tackling marine oil spillages.1 aMukherjee, Soumya1 aKansara, Ankit, M.1 aSaha, Debasis1 aGonnade, Rajesh1 aMullangi, Dinesh1 aManna, Biplab1 aDesai, Aamod, V.1 aThorat, Shridhar, H.1 aSingh, Puyam, S.1 aMukherjee, Arnab1 aGhosh, Sujit, K.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/ultrahydrophobic-fluorous-metal-organic-framework-derived-recyclable-composite-apromising01579nas a2200205   4500008004100000245008700041210006900128260000800197300001400205490000700219520088200226100001801108700002101126700002701147700001701174700001801191700002401209700002101233856011901254       2017                        eng d00aUltrahigh ionic conduction in water-stable close-packed metal-carbonate frameworks0 aUltrahigh ionic conduction in waterstable closepacked metalcarbo  cAUG  a9710-97150 v563 aUtilization of the robust metal-carbonate backbone in a series of water-stable, anionic frameworks has been harnessed for the function of highly efficient solid-state ion conduction. The compact organization of hydrophilic guest ions facilitates water-assisted ion-conduction in all the compounds. The dense packing of the compounds imparts high ion-conducting ability and minimizes the possibility of fuel crossover, making this approach promising for design and development of compounds as potential components of energy devices. This work presents the first report of evaluating ion-conduction in a purely metal-carbonate framework, which exhibits high ion-conductivity on the order of 10(-2) S cm(-1) along with very low activation energy, which is comparable to highly conducting well-known crystalline coordination polymers or commercialized organic polymers like Nafion.1 aManna, Biplab1 aDesai, Aamod, V.1 aIllathvalappil, Rajith1 aGupta, Kriti1 aSen, Arunabha1 aKurungot, Sreekumar1 aGhosh, Sujit, K.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/ultrahigh-ionic-conduction-water-stable-close-packed-metal-carbonate-frameworks
