In hot water: Hydrothermal crystallization was recently used to transform amporphous polymer networks into amide-linked, stable covalent-organic frameworks. This work is highlighted in the context of the synthesis and especially crystallization of organic materials by using high-temperature water.
Keywords: amides; covalent organic frameworks; crystalline materials; hydrothermal synthesis; organic materials.
