Artificial photosynthesis offers a viable strategy for sustainable and environmentally friendly H2O2 production. However, conventional inorganic semiconductor photocatalysts often face limitations such as restricted light absorption, inadequate redox ability, small specific surface area and poor stability, which greatly restrict their practical applications. Herein, an innovative inorganic/organic S-scheme heterojunction is fabricated by an electrostatic self-assembling method. The optimized BT-12 composite demonstrates a significantly enhanced photocatalytic H2O2 production rate of 723 μmol L−1, surpassing the rates achieved by pure Bi2WO6 and TpPa-Cl-COF by factors of 10 and 2.9, respectively. This improvement can be attributed to the synergistic effects of enhanced light absorption, increased specific surface area, and effective separation of charge carriers and redox active sites, as well as the strong redox ability induced by the S-scheme heterojunction. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations along with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) characterization confirm the step-by-step charge transfer pathway. The active species trapping experiments validate that H2O2 is predominantly produced by a two-step one-electron process. This work highlights an innovative and promising strategy for constructing a highly efficient photocatalytic system based on inorganic/organic heterojunctions.

Benzoic acid, which has a pivotal role in food additive, is prohibited to add as a preservative in dairy products. China, Brazil, and other countries have proposed standard methods to detect the addition of benzoic acid in food. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is an upcoming spectral detection technique, which has been widely used in the field of material analysis with the advantages of non-invasive, fast detection speed and complex environment with little interference. To detect the illegal use of benzoic acid in dairy industry, we developed Ag-COF (covalent-organic framework) material as SERS substrate to detect benzoic acid in liquid milk. The great enhancement ability of Ag-COF substrate is controlled by the addition of acetic acid and complex interplay between COF material and benzoic acid. This detection method has high sensitivity and reliability that allows us to achieve limit of detection (LOD) of 0.13 μg/mL in milk and 0.00372 μg/mL in water by applying this method. In experiment on recovery rate of real samples, the detection time is less than 15 minutes and the relative standard deviation (RSD) ranged from 2.82% to 5.69%. Therefore, this method has practical significance of the detection of benzoic acid in dairy products.

Fe-based MOFs (Fe-MOFs) are excellent photocatalysts and have synergy well with Fenton reagents relative to other MOFs. In this work, a series of uniformly covered NH 2 -Fe-MIL-88B@TpPa-1-COF composites were synthesized using an in-situ anchoring growth strategy, which used F127 as functional molecule to decorate NH 2 -Fe-MIL-88B nanoparticles to eliminate their surface electrostatic repulsion with Tp molecules during the subsequent coating procedure. Meanwhile, the -NH 2 groups in the skeleton of NH 2 -Fe-MIL-88B could also be used as anchors to covalently connect TpPa-1-COF shell and migration channels for effective charge transfer. This uniformly covered core–shell structure would endow these composites with much more contact area and imine bond linkage between the Fe-MOFs core and COFs shell. Compared with the random packing structure, the uniformly covered Fe-MOF@COF-3 composite possessed a higher proportion of Fe 2+ to Fe 3+ . As a result, the optimized Fe-MOF@COF-3 catalyst could achieve the highest photo-Fenton degradation efficiency of 93.9% for tetracycline hydrochloride (TC⋅HCl), which was much higher than 54.8% of pure NH 2 -Fe-MIL-88B. In addition, the uniform TpPa-1-COF shell could further effectively enhance the stability of NH 2 -Fe-MIL-88B by protecting Fe ions from leaching, and the toxicity of the water samples treated with our photo-Fenton degradation process declined obviously. All these merits will endow Fe-MOF@COF-3 photo-Fenton catalyst great potential application value as in the field of environmental governance.

In this work, to address the issue of poor conductivity in COFs, a layered porous composite (EG@COF) was successfully synthesized. A redox-active COF (DAAQ-TFP COF) was grown on the surface of expanded graphite (EG) through a solvent-free in situ synthesis. SEM analysis displayed that the obtained composite (EG@COF) possessed a layered porous structure. Further investigations revealed that EG not only improved electrical conductivity but also regulated the pore size of the COFs. This structure was highly conducive to enhancing the specific capacitance of the electrode material. An electrochemical study demonstrated that the specific capacitance of EG@COF-3 reached 351 C g−1 at 1 A g−1, with 94.4% capacitance retention after 10 000 cycles. The excellent capacitance retention was attributed to the stable backbone of the COF. Meanwhile, an asymmetric supercapacitor (ACS) comprising activated carbon (AC) and EG@COF exhibited an energy density of 16.4 W h kg−1 at a power density of 806.0 W kg−1.

Adsorption-driven heat pumps (AHPs) powered by low-grade waste heat and solar energy are promising to reduce the energy consumption for cooling and heating. Seeking novel high-performing adsorbents of AHPs is the key to improve their cooling/heating performance. Very recently, the potential use of covalent-organic frameworks (COFs) adsorbents of AHPs has won increasing research interests. However, the adsorption cooling/heating performance of COFs under varying working conditions is still unexplored. In this study, COF-5 was synthesized and tested to obtain the adsorption isotherms of ethanol working fluid. For comparison, three commonly used metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), including Cu-BTC, MIL-101(Cr), and ZIF-8, were also investigated. The cooling/heating performance of COF-5/ethanol and MOF/ethanol working pairs was evaluated by mathematical modelling based on the basic thermodynamic cycle of AHPs. The results demonstrated that COF-5 with the high coefficient of performance for cooling/heating (COP C /COP H ) under wide temperature lift (ΔT lift ) outperformed MOFs, especially for cooling.

Constructing step-scheme (S-scheme) heterojunctions has become a popular strategy for efficient photocatalytic H 2 O 2 generation. Herein, we in situ grew BiOBr nanosheets (NSs) on a Schiff-base covalent organic framework (COF) with large π-conjugated structures to prepare S-scheme BiOBr/COF photocatalysts for H 2 O 2 synthesis. The highest photocatalytic H 2 O 2 production performance of the composite sample constituting the S-scheme heterojunction is 3749 µmol g −1 h −1 , which was 1.85 and 27 times the rates of COF and BiOBr, respectively. The construction of S-scheme heterojunction contributed to efficient carrier transfer and separation in space and enhanced redox power. Moreover, the lying-down O 2 -adsorption configuration on the COF surface favors the concerted two-electron O 2 reduction process, which greatly reduced the reduction potential requirement for O 2 -to-H 2 O 2 conversion. The synergy between the S-scheme heterojunction and the unique O 2 –COF interaction boosted photocatalytic H 2 O 2 production activity.

The assembly of biomacromole particles with artificial solid matrixes to fabricate hybrid composites has been demonstrated as an efficient strategy to promote both components’ applications. Elaborating matrixes as well as appropriate assembly method is essential for optimal performances of the obtained natural-artificial composites. Herein, we fabricated the Cyt c @COF-42-B microcapsule through a sacrificial templating method and researched their adjustable biocatalysis by precisely adjusting the microenvironments of these assembled enzyme@COF particles. As a result, the hydrophobicity and mass transfer of the COF microcapsule can be controlled by modifying the different amounts of PEG moieties, thus improving the composite's bioactivity. We found that compared with pristine Cyt c @COF-42-B without PEG, the Cyt c @COF-42-B-PEG exhibited a ∼2.2 times higher activity. This study provides a significant step toward designing customizable functional natural-artificial composites for enhanced biomacromolecule's activity.

Accelerating light-induced carrier transfer and improving charge utilization are essential for enhancing the efficiency of solar hydrogen production. In this work, for the first time, 2D/2D covalent organic-framework (COF)/SnNb2O6 nanosheets were fabricated by a hydrothermal process. By adjusting the content of TpPa-2-COF, it was used to optimize the performance of solar hydrogen production. The optimal TpPa-2-COF/SnNb2O6 nanosheets show a hydrogen production rate of 7.66 μmol·h−1, which is 5.8-fold and 3.5-fold that of pristine SnNb2O6 and TpPa-2-COF, respectively. The significant improvement in the photocatalytic performance can be attributed to the formation of a 2D/2D heterojunction nanosheet with a good energy band position between TpPa-2-COF and SnNb2O6, which can efficaciously inhibit the restructuring of charge carriers. Through photoelectrochemical analysis, it is further proved that the interface interaction between TpPa-2-COF and SnNb2O6 can lead to effective charge separation. Moreover, the cycling experiments reveal that the as-prepared photocatalyst has excellent stability and recycling performance. This study shows that the smart integration of organic (COF) and inorganic materials into a heterojunction with a 2D/2D structure is an available tactic for the fabrication of efficient photocatalysts.

Two-dimensional (2D) MXene-based membranes combine unique atomic thickness, well-arranged interlayer channel, and have received growing attention in molecular/ion separation and transport. The low permeability and instability of MXene-based membranes in water purification enable it difficult to be utilized in practical processing. Here, we present a high water-permeability and long-lived MXene membrane by assembling 2D heterostructured MXene/COF flakes on macroporous polymeric support. The intercalation of COFs into the interlayer of Ti 3 C 2 T x nanosheets not only increases the adjacent interlayer space , but also provides abundant molecular sieving pores, thereby enhancing the permeability of MXene membrane. While being applied in removal of organic dyes, the MXene/COF hybrid membrane exhibits a superior water permeance (up to ∼ 300 L m −2 h −1 bar −1 ), and several satisfactorily rejections for different dyes (98.2% for congo red, 98.7% for chrome black T, 96.4% for methyl blue, and 97.2% for methyl orange) are simultaneously achieved. Additionally, the covalent anchoring of COFs on MXene surface can greatly improve the stability. The reduction of hydrophilicity of MXene surface mitigates water molecular absorption on the fluid channel wall and endow the membrane with well swell tolerance in aqueous environment. Such high performance MXene/COF hybrid membrane is mainly caused by the physical sieving mechanism supported by the repulsive interaction, as well as adsorption capability originating from porous COFs. This work provides an alternative approach for the fabrication of high performance MXene-based membranes used for highly effective dye wastewater treatment , and extends the application of 2D membranes in desalination , pollutant treatments, and resource recovery.

Styrene oxide is an important intermediate in many chemical syntheses. It can be produced through the epoxidation of styrene using supported metal catalysts. However, the catalytic performance and stability of these catalysts are negatively affected by the mass transfer, diffusional limitations and leaching of metals from supports. In this work, a hydroxyl-substituted bidentate 2D Schiff-base COF supported Fe 3 O 4 particles catalyst (Fe-COF) is developed for styrene epoxidation using H 2 O 2 as oxidant. Fe-COF catalyst possesses an eclipsed layered-sheet structure with a uniform distribution of Fe 3 O 4 particles. Supported Fe 3 O 4 particles as the active sites are responsible for the adsorption of styrene and generation of reactive oxygen radicals through the Fenton process. The presence of the extensive π-electron delocalization effect over COF support facilitates the electron transfer between Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ sites on Fe-COF catalyst during the reaction, accelerating the Fenton process, thus Fe-COF catalyst even shows a higher catalytic activity (86.0 % conversion of styrene and 88.0 % selectivity to styrene oxide) compared with homogeneous Fenton catalyst (Fe(NO 3 ) 3 ). In addition, Fe-COF catalyst demonstrates good stability after 5 recycles without Fe leaching, due to the coordination of Fe 3 O 4 particles with the imine and hydroxyl groups in COF support.

Developing efficient and selective recovery of Pd(II) adsorbents is crucial for addressing environmental pollution issues. Among them, covalent organic framework (COF) and metal organic framework (MOF) composites due to the multi-site functional groups are expected to exhibit excellent Pd(II) adsorption. However, the design and preparation of COF and MOF composite adsorbents for highly efficient adsorption of heavy metal Pd(II) still face many challenges. Herein, we constructed a series of novel core–shell structure UiO-66-NH 2 @TAP-COF (denoted as M@C) adsorbents (M@C-X, X = 1–5, representing different MOF doses) by Schiff base reaction and applied in the adsorption of Pd(II). The findings indicated that the M@C-3 exhibited ultra-high adsorption performance, reaching a capacity of 2134.1 mg/g, and displayed excellent selectivity, making it the best among similar materials. Experimental data and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that the efficient and selective adsorption of Pd(II) is attributed to coordination interaction and strong electrostatic between Pd(II) and the abundant N and O groups in M@C. This work demonstrates the significant potential of the constructed core–shell M@C composites for the efficient and selective recovery of precious metal Pd(II).

Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) have emerged as a promising solution for the treatment of dye wastewater. A key challenge in advancing MMMs is how to effectively integrate two nanofillers with distinct advantages to mitigate the limitations of single-nanofiller systems. In this study, we present a binary nanofiller strategy, utilizing metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs), to fabricate polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) based MMMs. By systematically adjusting the mass ratio of ZIF-8 MOF and TFB-BD(Me) 2 COF, the separation efficiency of membranes for dyes with different charges, capitalizing on the molecular sieving properties of MOFs and the superior compatibility of COFs was evaluated. The optimized membrane demonstrated a rejection of 91.66% for Congo red (CR), along with a water permeance of 641.9 L m −2 h −1 bar −1 . This work represents a novel attempt in the design of binary-nanofiller MMMs, offering new insights into the synergistic effects of hybrid nanofillers in membrane technology.
