Abstract
, regardless of the interference of water vapor. Excitingly, these microporous materials exhibit interesting crystal-to-crystal transformation (CCT) properties accompanied by changed pore size on being exposed to different organic vapors. Therefore, the desorption process of toluene could be completed through a simple exposure to dichloromethane (DCM) vapor and the second transformation of the crystal occurred in this process.
