Magnetocaloric effect: A GdIII-based metal–organic framework (MOF) has an unprecedented large magnetocaloric effect around 2 K. It was shown to be interesting magnetorefrigerant for ultralow-temperature applications, because it combines the advantages of molecular materials and robustness a with strong 3D chemical connections (see figure). Detailed facts importance specialist readers are published as "Supporting Information". Such documents peer-reviewed, but not copy-edited or typeset. They...
