access icon free From atacamite to Cu(II)-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate for enhanced adsorption of methyl blue

The mesoporous Cu(II)-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate (CuBDC) microplate was synthesised by using a mineral, atacamite [Cu2(OH)3Cl] microbricks as a precursor under room condition based on the acid–base reaction. The CuBDC microplates transformed from Cu2(OH)3Cl microbricks displayed a higher ability for the adsorption of methylene blue in comparison with Cu2(OH)3Cl microbricks and the CuBDC synthesised in solution.
