Applications & Uses

Uses

tert-Butyl isothiocyanate is a tool for the modification of the pore sizes on the top layer of heterostructured surface mounted metal-organic frameworks.

General Description

Adsorption of tert-butyl isothiocyanate at the Ge (100) surface was studied using multiple internal reflection FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory modeling.
