Summary:The chemistry of coordination polymers and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has progressed largely with the development of crystallography. The study of “disordered systems” such as the liquid and glassy states of coordination polymers and MOFs has been developed in recent years, and various methods have been recognised to produce glasses from crystals. The structures of the glass and liquid phases are studied using synchrotron radiation X-rays and spectroscopy. Many of them have the coordination bond-based network structure found in the crystal structures. This suggests that the structural design principles of coordination chemistry can be applied to glasses and liquids of coordination polymers and MOFs. The inherent properties of the disordered system, such as wide compositions and high internal degrees of freedom, high material formability and softness, contribute to the coupled physicochemical properties.
