Enhanced Framework Rigidity of a Zeolitic Metal-Azolate via Ligand Substitution

The elastic properties of a zeolitic metal-azolate framework, Zn(mtz)2 (MAF-7, mtz− = 3-methyl-1,2,4-triazolate), have been examined from the view point of the first principles calculations and experiments. Our results demonstrate that the three independent elastic constants of MAF-7 are about 5.0–7...
