In their CrystEngComm Hot Article, Hirohito Tsue and colleagues from Kyoto University, demonstrate crystallographic evidence of trapped volatile gases in an azacalixarene structure. The paper looks at the solid–gas sorption behaviors of azacalixarenes at low temperatures among five gases, N2, O2, Ar, CO2, and CH4.
Why not read Tsue’s study for free until 16th December……..
