Abstract:Mechanochemical grinding of polycrystalline powders of the Prussian blue analogue (PBA) Mn[Co(CN) 6 ] 2/3 1/3 · xH 2 O and K 3 Co(CN) 6 consumes the latter and chemically modifies the former. A combination of inductively-coupled plasma and X-ray powder diffraction measurements suggests the hexacyanometallate vacancy fraction in this modified PBA is reduced by approximately one third under the specific conditions we explore. We infer the mechanochemically-driven incorporation of [Co(CN) 6 ] 3− ions onto the ini… Show more
