Extreme temperature changes water’s properties so it can replace organic solvent
By heating water far above its boiling point inside a closed flask, scientists can use it instead of an organic solvent to prepare a covalent organic framework (COF) material – a method they dubbed geomimetic hydrothermal synthesis because it recreates some of the extreme conditions deep under the Earth’s crust.
