Uncommon 3D Twofold Interpenetrated Zinc Phosphate Consisting of Inorganic Chains and Mixed Ligands for Highly Efficient Dye Removal Ability Using Its Nanosized Particles br

Abstract

The flexible blocks are the primary building units for constructing crystalline solids with interpenetrating structures. Herein, we reported a novel class of crystalline material with such structural features, which was made of two tetradentate ligands and one-dimensional (1D) rigid chains of zinc phosphate. This is also the first example of transition metal phosphate incorporating a squarate linker. Furthermore, efficient dye removal ability has been presented.
