Abstract
preconcentration of MOF precursors would trigger confined heterogeneous nucleation. The highly integrated composite obtained features thermoresponsivity and permanent porosity. Methylene blue adsorption/desorption experiments were performed, revealing a dramatic enhancement of its cargo capacity together with an increased release efficiency.
