Single molecule self-forms into a lattice that can self-heal, store gases

A team of researchers affiliated with several institutions in Japan has developed a material made from just a single molecule that self-forms into a lattice that can self-heal and store gases. In their paper published in the journal Science, the group describes synthesizing the aromatic molecule, which bears asymmetrical outer shell. The researchers note that … Continue reading Single molecule self-forms into a lattice that can self-heal, store gases
