The current study is focused on the facile synthesis of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) at room temperature 14 using three different solvents: ammonia solution (ZIF-8 (N)), aqueous solution (ZIF-8 (H)), and methanol (ZIF-8 (M)). 15 The ZIF-8s produced have high crystallinity with differen...
