title: Facile synthesis of metal-organic framework films via in situ seeding of nanoparticles.
abstract: A facile in situ nanoparticle seeding method is reported to prepare MIL-101(Cr) films on alumina supports. The in situ seeding of MIL-101(Cr) nanoparticles was promoted by use of dimethylacetamide (DMA). The generality of this approach is further demonstrated for Cu(3)(btc)(2) films by using a (poly)acrylate promoter.
