Abstract

Systematic investigation of combustion energies for popular metal–organic framework materials reveals energy content comparable to conventional energetic materials, which can be further modified and fine-tuned through the control of framework topology or isostructural ligand replacement to yield energy densities comparable to conventional energetic materials such as trinitrotoluene and hydrazine-, diesel-, or kerosene-based fuels.
