Description

MaterialFGID

Unique identifier for the functional group-material link.

material_MaterialID

Material ID of the material which has a functional group attached

material_publication_DOI

Reference to DOI of source publication

functionalgroup_FunctionalGroup

Chemical identity of the functional group.

FunctionalizationProtocol

Technical method to functionalize the material (e.g. acid wash, etc.)

  1. Materialfg connects specific functional group data to the broader material data. If a material had functional groups, these were tracked in the functional group and materialfg tables. Functional group was a simple list of predefined functional groups. Each row in the materialfg table was a combination of a functional group, a material ID, a publication DOI, and the name of the functionalization protocol used to add the functional group to the material. A material could have any number of functional groups.
