A crystallization facilitator for promoting crystal growth of a metal-organic framework, the crystallization facilitator comprising at least one of: a metal or ionic form of that metal, or a compound including a metal, which is selected from the group consisting of Group 1 through 16 metals of the IUPAC Periodic Table of the Elements including actinides, and lanthanides, and combinations thereof. A method of synthesizing a metal-organic framework using the crystallization facilitator is also described.

Crystallisation facilitators for the synthesis of metal organic frameworks

A gas adsorption material comprising: a porous metal-organic framework and a plurality of functionalized fullerenes or fullerides provided in the pores of the metal-organic framework. The metal-organic framework includes a plurality of metal clusters, each metal cluster including one or more metal ions, and a plurality of charged multidentate linking ligands connecting adjacent metal clusters.
