Differences of crystal structure and dynamics between a soft porous nanocrystal and a bulk crystal

We have demonstrated downsizing effects of the soft porous crystal, [Zn(isophthalate)(4,40-bipyridyl)](n) (CID-1), on the adsorption behavior between CID-1 and CID-1 nanocrystal (NCID-1). The difference results from the packing crystal structures and the dynamics of the frameworks.
