    Abstract:
    Several metal-organic frameworks are known to display negative thermal expansion (NTE). However, unlike traditional NTE material classes, there have been no reports where the thermal expansion of a MOF has been tuned continuously from negative to positive through the formation of single-phase solid solutions. In the system Zn-DMOF-TMx, Zn2[(bdc)2-2x(TM-bdabco)2x][dabco], the introduction of increasing amounts of TM-bdc, with four methyl groups decorating the benzene dicarboxylate linker, leads to a smooth transition from negative to positive thermal expansion in the a-b plane of this tetragonal material. The temperature at which zero thermal expansion occurs evolves from ∼186 K for the Zn-DMOF parent structure (x = 0) to ∼325 K for Zn-DMOF-TM (x = 1.0). The formation of mixed linker solid solutions is likely a general strategy for the control of thermal expansion in MOFs.
