Coordination polymers, metal-organic frameworks and the need for terminology guidelines
Journal article, 2012
Coordination polymers (CPs) and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are among the most prolific research areas of inorganic chemistry and crystal engineering in the last 15 years, and yet it still seems that consensus is lacking about what they really are, or are not.
