Research in the Cronin Group is motivated by the fascination for complex chemical systems, and the desire to construct complex functional molecular architectures that are not based on biologically derived building blocks.
The Cronin Group’s work on 3D Printed hydrothermal reaction vessels is featured in Nature Chemistry’s “News and Views” sections for November 2014. The manufacture of the low-cost 3D-Printed chambers is described as a “potentially exciting development for many researchers, including those working on high-temperature crystallizations of MOFs”. Compared to the traditional stainless steel vessels, 3D-Printed reactionware could offer great advantages in terms of cost-effectiveness and flexibility.
