Technical details and requirements:
For XRD data (Figs. 1, 3, 4, 5, 6): Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis was done to identify phases with a Bruker D8 Advance instrument using monochromatic CuKalpha1 L3 (λ = 1.540598 Å) X-radiation and a Vantec superspeed detector. A step size of 0.016⁰(2θ) and step duration of 0.3 seconds were used. Phase identification was done using Bruker EVA software. Patterns were corrected for sample height shift by calibrating to the most intense quartz reflection (101) at 26.6 °(2θ). For FTIR data (Figs. 6, 10, 11, 12, 13) Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was done to characterise molecular bonding, using a Perkin-Elmer Frontier with a diamond Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) head. Spectra were collected over a range of 4000-600 cm-1 using a resolution of 4cm-1 and 5 scans per spectrum. Corrections were made for ATR and background using Perkin-Elmer Spectrum software.
