…occur by bending the metal-oxygen-metal bond angles between the polyhedrons. The volume change resulting from this bending, and the associated collapse of interpolyhedral spaces, is typically an order of magnitude greater than compression due to bond-length changes alone. Framework structures, consequently, are often much more compressible than structures with only…
