Journal Article · · ChemComm
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1039/C7CC09780H· OSTI ID:1470191

In this review, we highlight how recent advances in the field of actinide structural chemistry of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) could be utilized towards investigations relative to efficient nuclear waste administration, driven by the interest towards development of novel actinide-containing architectures as well as concerns regarding environmental pollution and nuclear waste storage.
