NDTB-1: A Supertetrahedral Cationic Framework That Removes TcO₄ ⁻ from Solution

Cleaning up: A cubic thorium borate possesses a porous supertetrahedral cationic framework with extraframework borate anions. These anions are readily exchanged with a variety of environmental contaminants (see picture), especially those from the nuclear industry, including chromate and pertechnetat...
