Abstract

This paper presents a novel method for synthesizing ZIF-14 from zinc acetate dihydrate in methanol solvent without additional substances. Accordingly, the research results demonstrated that in a reaction environment containing only methanol solvent, with a suitable crystallization regime, pure ZIF-14 was formed. Under the experimental conditions, the absence of an alkaline additional substance still allowed for the removal of H⁺ from HeIM, promoting the formation of Zn–eIM–Zn bonds to create the ZIF-14 structure. ZIF-14 was formed with crystallinity of 100 %, a particle size of 400 nm (SEM), a specific surface area of 513 m²/g (BET), and a synthesis yield of 60.2 %.
