Water-Stable Al<sub>3</sub>Ni<sub>4</sub> Polynuclear Heterometallic Compound for Near-Infrared Photothermal Conversion
In this paper, a polynuclear heterometallic compound (H<sub>3</sub>O)[Al<sub>3</sub>Ni<sub>4</sub>(OH)<sub>6</sub>(MBA-NO<sub>2</sub>)<sub>6</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>6</sub>] (Al<sub>3</sub>Ni<sub>4</sub>, H<sub>2</sub>MBA-NO<sub>2</sub> = 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-nitrobenzoic acid) with a seven-star disk metal core has been synthesized by the solvothermal method. Al<sub>3</sub>Ni<sub>4</sub> has good stability in water and several organic solvents, and its solid powder shows a good photothermal effect under 980 nm laser irradiation, and the temperature can reach 138.8 °C within 100 s under 1.0 W cm<sup>-2</sup> power irradiation. Considering its good photothermal effect, water evaporation of Al<sub>3</sub>Ni<sub>4</sub> was measured. It can be further used as a photothermal material in seawater evaporation.
