MOF liquid dynamics and tailoring glass transition temperature. a View down the b axis of the unit cells of ZIF-4-Co and ZIF-62. N—dark blue, C—grey, Zn—green, Co—purple, H atoms omitted for clarity. b Enthalpy response (red curve) and mass change (dotted curve) in the physical mixture (ZIF-4-Zn)(ZIF-62)(50/50) during heating at 10 °C/min. Blue curve: reheating curve representing the enthalpy response of the corresponding glass that forms upon quenching, i.e., (ZIF-4-Zn)0.5(ZIF-62)0.5 during prior cooling at 10 °C min−1. c Evolving glass transition of the sample series (ZIF-4-Zn)1−x(ZIF-62)x. d Enthalpy response (blue curve) and mass change (orange curve) of the physical mixture (ZIF-4-Co)(ZIF-62)(50/50) during heating at 10 °C min−1
