Fig. 3: Parameters and results of optimization for each synthesis of generations 1 and 2.
From: Using genetic algorithms to systematically improve the synthesis conditions of Al-PMOF
Each experimental variable studied (i.e., microwave power, reaction temperature, time, concentration, and solvents) selected for each Al-PMOF synthesis are depicted by circles, while the bar graphs illustrate the ranking of each reaction in terms of crystallinity and yield. The color code is given for the worst (brown) and best (dark green) samples. Generation 1 was ranked in terms of the crystallinity of each sample, while the success of generation 2 was determined by the yield as all samples proved to be highly crystalline. This proves the success of the GA in providing good crystallinity of all samples in just one generation. The PXRD patterns and N2 isotherms at 77 K can be visualized at https://www.cheminfo.org/flavor/zenodo/index.html?id=&id=7186602.
