description | Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are combinations of metal ions or clusters accommodated to organic ligands to shape different dimensional structures. MOFs are considered as a subclass of coordination polymers, with the possible characteristics that they are normally porous. The metals are considered to offer flexible, co-ordination environment under virtually various topologies. Besides, because of the usual liability of metal complexes, the shape of the coordination bonds between the metal ions and the organic linkers can be reversible and this helps the rearrangement of metal ions and organic linkers through the process of polymerization to give highly ordered framework structures. The study has indicated that MOFs has maintained extensive applications in Biological imaging and sensing, Drug delivery systems, Methane storage, Semiconductors, Bio-mimetic mineralization, Carbon capture, Desalination/ion separation, Water vapor capture and Ferroelectrics and Multiferroics. This paper presents a scientometrics study on 1273 papers published articles, books, patents, etc. indexed in Web of Science database over the period 2001-2019. The study presents the most popular keywords used in the literature, determines the network of scientific scholars and discusses the clusters of keywords used for different surveys. The results indicate that metalorganic frameworks and zeoitic imidazolate frameworks are two keywords considered as motor keywords in MOFs studies. |
