Due to the excellent adsorption capacity on CO2, Mg‐MOF‐74 is highly potential for carbon capture. However, the practical application is seriously hindered by the poor hydrolytic stability of Mg‐MOF‐74 even towards trace of moisture. Here we report a strategy by adjusting the microenvironment of Mg‐...
