Abstract: Disclosed are open-framework solids that possess superior ion-transport properties pertinent to the electrochemical performance of next-generation electrode materials for battery devices. Disclosed compounds including compositions and architectures relevant to electrical energy storage device applications have been developed through integrated solid-state and soft (solution) chemistry studies. The solids can adopt a general formula of AxMy(XO4)z, where A=mono- or divalent electropositive cations (e.g., Li+), M—trivalent transition metal cations (e.g., Fe3+, Mn3+), and X?Si, P, As, or V. Also disclosed are oxo analogs of these materials having the general formulae AaMbOc(PO4)d (a?b), and more specifically, AnMnO3x(PO4)n-2x, where A=mono- or divalent electropositive cations (e.g., Li+), M is either Fe or Mn, and x is between 0 and n/2.

Abstract: The invention is directed to open-framework and microporous solids well suited for use in catalysis and ion exchange. The microporous solids are constructed by using a salt template which can be readily removed without destroying the framework of the micropore. Various microporous solids can be formed having different geometric structures depending upon the templating salt used and the concentration. Examples of two compounds include Na2Cs[Mn3(P2O7)2]Cl and K2.02Cs2.90[Cu3(P2O7)2]Cl2.92. Both compounds have 3-D (Mn, Cu)-P-O frameworks.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to open-framework and microporous solids particularly well suited for use in catalysis and ion exchange. The microporous solids are constructed by using a salt template which can be readily removed without destroying the framework of the micropore. Various microporous solids can be formed having different geometric structures depending upon the templating salt used and the concentration. Examples of two compounds include Na2Cs[Mn3(P2O7)2]Cl(1) and K2.02Cs2.90[Cu3(P2O7)2]C12.92(2). Compound 1 crystallizes in the space group C2/c with a=21.210(8), b=5.272(2), c=13.924(2)?, beta=119.04(2), and Z=4. Compound 2 crystallizes in the space group 14/mcm with a=b=18.001(3), c=13.530(4)?, and Z=8. Both compounds have 3-D (Mn, Cu)—P—O frameworks. For 1, two MnO4, two MnO5 polyhedra and four PO4 tetrahedra form small tunnels where Cs+ and Cl? ions reside. For 2, CuO4 and P2O7 groups form two different tunnels, one is similar to that in 1 (ca. 5.
