Layered metal phosphonate–phosphate hybrid materials are known to be ion-exchange materials. Hybrids with zirconium metal centers were synthesized at varying phosphonate–phosphate ratios in order to explore the function and charge preference. The zirconium hybrid materials were found to have a range...
