    The force of MOFs: The potential of switchable metal-organic frameworks as solvent stimulated actuators
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2020) Freund, Pascal; Senkovska, Irena; Zheng, Bin; Bon, Volodymyr; Krause, Beate; Maurin, Guillaume; Kaskel, Stefan
    We evaluate experimentally the force exerted by flexible metal-organic frameworks through expansion for a representative model system, namely MIL-53(Al). The results obtained are compared with data collected from intrusion experiments while molecular simulations are performed to shed light on the re-opening of the guest-loaded structure. The critical impact of the transition stimulating medium on the magnitude of the expansion force is demonstrated.
