Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown promising adsorptive desulfurization (ADS) capacity yet remains great challenges to maintain excellent performance in presence of water. Guided by the density function theoretical (DFT) calculations, we select bromine modified linkers with different substitution degrees to construct MIL-47-xBr to regulate the porosity and hydrophobicity. The optimized MIL-47-Br exhibits the highest saturation dibenzothiophene (DBT) capacity of 179.2 mgS g −1 from the hydrous oil, surpassing the record of all ADS adsorbents. Meanwhile, the excellent selectivity, adsorption kinetics, and recycle stability endow MIL-47-Br with superior ADS performance from the commercial hydrous gasoline. With the DBT capacity decreases by only 12.3% from the commercial gasoline, a continue flow ADS is successfully achieved on the fixed-bed of MIL-47-Br column. Therefore, this facial strategy of simple substitution can fully exploit the functions of open metal sites for enhancing the task-specific selectivity, and has a promising application prospect in industrial ADS.

Polypropylene (PP) has been widely used in the fields of lithium battery separators, proton exchange membranes, membrane bioreactors and polyamide (PA) thin film composite (TFC) reverse osmosis (RO) membranes owing to its excellent mechanical strength , chemical durability and low cost. Nevertheless, its inherent strong hydrophobicity and low surface porosity severely limit its in-depth development in the field of polyamide TFC membranes. Herein, we propose a general strategy for the precise assembly of ZIF-8 nanoparticles on PP support for the fabrication of RO membrane. By this method, position induced nanoporous surface (PINS) was introduced via in-situ synthesis of ZIF-8 assisted by diazonium-induced anchoring process (DIAP) on PP support, and it would achieve precise repair of non-porous regions of PP support, thereby increasing its surface porosity and hydrophilicity of PP support. Subsequently, a high-performance ZIF-8 hybrid reverse osmosis (HPP-ZIF-8-RO) membrane was fabricated by conventional interfacial polymerization (IP) on modified commercialized PP support for the first time. The optimal rejection of HPP-ZIF-8-RO for NaCl is ~99%, and the water flux is up to 50 kg m −2 h −1 under the operating pressure of 1.55 MPa. In addition, the HPP-ZIF-8-RO membrane has a superior chemical stability after the solvent resistance test. To prove the university of DIAP and PINS, we have successfully fabricated other types of HPP-MOF-RO (HPP-ZIF-67-RO, HPP-HKUST-1-RO) which also show enhanced desalination performance. Hence, DIAP and PINS could provide a convenient and versatile method for precise repairing the defect area of the hydrophobic porous substrates.

Bowl-like polymer microspheres (BPMs) of polyfluoroimide (PIF) with a single cave and interior porosity are successfully prepared in this work by using one-step electrospray (ES) technique. The effects of polymer solution and process control parameters on the surface appearance and sizes of resulting microspheres are investigated. The experimental results indicate that the cyclopentanone (CPT) is used as the solvent, polymer microspheres with porous structure, tailed and elongated, single-cave and beaded fibers can be prepared respectively. Compared to the cyclopentanone, the N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC) solvent contributes to the formation of microspheres with spherical and rough surface structure. The diameters of BPMs and single-cave can be regulated by varying the PIF solution concentration, applied voltage and flow rate during the electrospray process. The diameter ranges for the obtained PIF microspheres are 2.75-5.03 μm with single-cave at 1.11-2.72 μm respectively. The sizes of both the single-cave and microspheres tend to reduce with the decrease of flow rate or increase of applied voltage. These BPMs with interior porosity have a broad application prospect in microreactor, catalyst supports, drug carrier and captures for cells due to its large effective surface area and strong absorption capacity.

Direct conversion of biomass to carbon aerogel provides a promising approach to developing supporting material for phase change materials (PCMs). In present work, carrot and pumpkin derived carbon aerogels (CCA and PCA) were fabricated via a hydrothermal and post-sintering process. N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms were used to evaluate the specific surface area and pore distribution of the carbon aerogels. It showed that the carrot carbon aerogel sintered at 800 °C (CCA800) possessed a specific surface area of 33.80 m2·g−1, which is separately 168%, 165%, and 287% higher than that of carrot carbon aerogel sintered at 1000 °C (CCA1000, 12.59 m2·g−1), pumpkin carbon aerogel sintered at 800 °C (PCA800, 12.77 m2·g−1), and pumpkin carbon aerogel sintered at 1000 °C (PCA1000, 8.74 m2·g−1). Owing to its porosity, the carbon aerogels with a high loading content of palmitic acid (PA)/thiol-ene resin (TE) composite as a PCM without leakage. A thermal conductivity enhancement of 60.5% was achieved by 50PA/TE@PCA1000 compared with 50PA/TE, and DSC result showed its latent heat of 88.26 J/g. The excellent properties of PCMs composites lead to a promising application foreground.

The impact of the diffuse double-layer on the diffusion of radionuclide anions remains unclear, impeding the application of Archie's law for adsorptive anions. Through-diffusion experiments were carried out to measure the effective diffusion coefficient and distribution coefficient of Ce(III) in the presence of EDTA. A multi-porosity model, in combination with Archie's law, was used to estimate the effective diffusion coefficient. The predominant species, CeEDTA − , exhibited an effective diffusion coefficient of (0.88–1.92) × 10 −11 m 2 /s and the distribution coefficient of (0.81–1.18) × 10 −3 m 3 /kg at the compacted dry density of 1300–1800 kg/m 3 . The accessible porosity, the diffuse double-layer porosity, and the interlayer porosity were analyzed using the multi-porosity model, based on the characterization of bentonite via Scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectrometry, X-ray diffractometer , and Nitrogen-Brunner-Emmett-Teller method. Due to the low external surface area of Zhisin bentonite (27.7–35.3 m 2 /g), the impact of the diffuse double-layer was insignificant on the total and accessible porosities. Additionally, the diffuse double-layer porosity had insignificant impact on the effective diffusion coefficient of CeEDTA − in compacted bentonite, as its value was one order magnitude lower than that of the interlayer porosity and the accessible porosity.

Two thiophene-based and carbazole-based conjugated microporous polymers (PTPATTh and PTPATCz) with triphenylamine core structural monomers were synthesized via straight forward anhydrous ferric chloride oxidative coupling polymerization. We first explored the fluorescent sensing performance of thienyl CMPs for picric acid (PA) and investigated comparatively the porosity and fluorescence sensing property for PA/p-nitrophenol (NP). Thanks to the propeller-like structure, high porosity, extended π-conjugation and electron-rich characteristics, the both CMPs exhibited strong fluorescent emission properties and worked as fluorescent chemosensors toward electron-deficient nitroaromatic analytes. The suspension of PTPATTh and PTPATCz given rise to the high luminescence, and showed a white and yellow emission in both THF and DOX excited under 365 nm using a UV lamp, respectively. Though BET surface area values and response speed of PTPATTh (594 m 2 g −1 ) are lower than that of PTPATCz (894 m 2 g −1 ), PTPATTh display higher selectivity for tracing PA than PTPATCz in DOX and THF. In short, the PTPATTh may be a new kind of material for detecting PA.

Porous liquids (PLs), as a novel liquid sorbent with permanent porosity, still present challenges such as high viscosity and melting temperatures. Herein, an efficient electrostatic repulsion strategy is proposed to engineer zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) type III PLs employing ZIF-8- g -BPEI nanoparticle stability dispersed into BPEI. The viscosity and melting temperatures of ZIF-8- g -BPEI PLs could be tailored via control particle size, grafting polymer, and concentration of porous nanoparticles . The existence of BPEI on the surface of ZIF-8- g -BPEI facilitates the stable dispersion of ZIFs nanoparticles in BPEI via the electrostatic repulsion as well as enhances CO 2 adsorption capacity of PLs. Moreover, the CO 2 adsorption amount of ZIF-8- g -BPEI-30 PLs is 6.5 times high than that of neat BPEI, suggesting the permanent free volume of ZIFs is retained in their corresponding PLs. Benefiting from the branched structure of BPEI grafted onto the outer surface of ZIFs , ZIF-8- g -BPEI-10 PLs remain liquified down to -71.1 °C, together with viscosity as 1.7 Pa·s −1 at 25 °C. Therefore, the electrostatic repulsion strategy opens an effective avenue to prepare novel liquid materials and shows numerous potential applications in gas adsorption and separation.

The effective separation of oil-water emulsion and the degradation of organic dyes are significant for solving the problem of environmental pollution . In this view, porphrin-cored with siloxane-poly(amido amine) dendrimer(PP-Si-PAMAM) blending PVDF composite membrane (PP-Si-PAMAM/PVDF) was successfully prepared by using simple non-solvent-induced phase inversion method. After introducing PP-Si-PAMAM into PVDF membrane matrix, the porosity, hydrophilicity and mechanical properties of the composite membrane were significantly improved. The resultant membrane exhibits admirable separation performance (above 99.1%) and high permeation flux (830–1471 L∙m −2 ∙h −1 ∙bar −1 ) for a series of oil-water emulsions. After 10 cycles of separation, the separation efficiency of the PP-Si-PAMAM/PVDF membrane is still more than 99%, and it still maintains excellent separation efficiency and permeability after extreme chemical environment treatment. Moreover, PP-Si-PAMAM/PVDF membrane has excellent degradation effect on organic dyes RhB and MB under visible light, and the degradation efficiency reaches 88% and 90% respectively in a short time. This work has huge potential applications in wastewater treatment with its combined advantages of oil-water emulsion separation and catalytic degradation of organic dye contaminants.

Nano-Li2FeSiO4/C composites (LFS/C-325 and LFS/C-221) and nano-Li2FeSiO4 (LFS-325 and LFS-221) with controlled porosity were prepared from the nano-fumed silicas with similar particle size and different porosity. N2 adsorption/desorption analysis reveals that the porosity of nano-Li2FeSiO4/C composites and nano-Li2FeSiO4 can be tuned by the choosing nano -fumed silica and LFS/C-325 possess the highest specific surface area among the four samples. XRD indicates that both LFS/C-325 and LFS/C-221 are crystalline powders with monoclinic Li2FeSiO4 of P21. FTIR spectra show that Li-O and Si-O bonds are existed in the four samples. SEM images demonstrate that LFS/C-325 and LFS/C-221 have similar particle sizes in the range of 20 ~ 25 nm, which are distinctly smaller than those of LFS-325 and LFS-221. LFS/C-325 features the smallest particle size and largest specific area, which enables LFS/C-325 to exhibit the best electrochemical performance. The initial discharge capacity of LFS/C-325 is as high as 185.2 mAh g−1 at 0.1 C.

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) not only have environmental protection characteristics of being lightweight, degradable, green, and renewable but also have some nanocharacteristics of high strength, large specific surface area, and obvious small size effect, so they are often used as a reinforcing agent in various polymers. However, the hydrogen bonding between CNC molecules is relatively strong, and they can easily aggregate and get entangled with each other. In this work, several large-porosity composite nanofiber films, KH550-CNC/waterborne polyurethane (WPU)/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVAL) with KH550-modified CNCs, are prepared using poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVAL) solution and electrospinning technology. A variety of characterization methods are used to discuss and analyze the nanofiber materials, and the effects of the added amount of CNCs modified with KH550, spinning voltage, curing distance, and advancing speed on the morphology and performance of composite fibers are discussed separately. The results show that when the content of KH550-CNC is 1%, the composite fiber film obtained has the most regular morphology and the best spinnability, which is convenient for the specific application of fiber materials in a later period. In addition, the porosity of the obtained composite fiber film is 62.61%. Therefore, this work provides a theoretical basis and research strategy for the preparation of higher-porosity composite films as well as the development of new textile materials.

The advancement of wireless gas sensing signifies a substantial leap forward in gas detection and intelligent monitoring technologies. This necessitates stringent design criteria for gas sensitive materials with good solution processability, conductivity, and porosity, whose design and synthesis remain challenging yet highly sought-after. Herein, the fabrication of NUS-8/polyaniline (PANI) nanosheets is presented with excellent solution processability, high porosity, triboelectric property, and superior electrical conductivity via a template-directed polymerization strategy. Solution processable NUS-8 nanosheets, synthesized directly by a “one-pot” approach, serve as templates to enhance the “on-site” polymerization of aniline, resulting in the formation of PANI layer on NUS-8 nanosheets with a thickness of 7 nm. The resultant NUS-8/PANI nanosheets exhibit outstanding solution processability, and a film conductivity of 8.6 S m −1 . The solution processability enables the facile fabrication of homogeneous and compact NUS-8/PANI films and thus their integration onto electronic devices targeted for multifunctional sensing. The NUS-8/PANI coated sensors demonstrate sensitive and selective detection at room temperature toward ultratrace ammonia with a detection limit of 120 ppb. A wireless sensing system based on the NUS-8/PANI-coated sensor is capable to monitor the spoilage process of meat. This study paves novel avenues for designing and synthesizing gas-sensitive materials for practical applications.

Simultaneous achievement in high solid content and high microsphere yield is deemed a challenge in the fabrication of monodisperse microspheres by precipitation polymerization. We herein demonstrate that micro-sized monodisperse poly(methacrylic monomer-divinylbenzene) microspheres containing epoxy, lauyl, carboxyl and hydroxyl functions can be fabricated by solvothermal precipitation co-polymerization at 20% (mass) monomer loading with over 94% microsphere yield. The morphology and porosity of the obtained particles can be readily tuned by cosolvent-acetonitrile binary solvents. Addition of a small amount of cosolvent that has similar solubility parameter to that of the functional monomer can significantly improve the monodispersity of the obtained microspheres. When tetrahydrofuran was used as the co-solvent, the surface area of the highly porous microspheres achieved higher than 400 m 2 ·g −1 . Solvothermal precipitation co-polymerization can be expected in scale-up fabrication of various monodisperse functional microspheres free of any surfactant and additive.
