Ratio fluorescence has attracted much attention because of its self-calibration properties. However, it is difficult to obtain suitable fluorescent materials with well-resolved signals simultaneously under one excitation. In this work, we report a different strategy, using MIL-68(In)-NH 2 as both the fluorescence element and the scattered light unit, and coupling the fluorescence and the scattered light to construct the fluorescence and scattered light ratio system. Based on the optical properties and the second-order scattering (SOS) of the material nanoparticles , the synthesized MIL-68(In)-NH 2 can be used to realize the ratio detection of Hg 2+ . Because the scattering intensity of small particle MIL-68(In)-NH 2 is weak, SOS is not obvious. When Hg 2+ is introduced the coordination reaction between the amino nitrogen atoms of MIL-68(In)-NH 2 and Hg 2+ make the particles larger, resulting in the decrease of fluorescence and the enhancement of SOS. As a result, a novel Hg 2+ ratiometric detection method is developed by using the dual signal responses of the fluorescence and scattering. Under the optimal conditions (pH = 6, reaction time 5 min, room temperature , and the maximum excitation wavelength 365 nm), the linear range of the method is 0–100 μM, and the detection limit is 5.8 nM (Ksv = 9.89 × 10 9 M −1 ). In addition, the probe is successfully used to evaluate Hg 2+ in actual water samples. Compared with the traditional method of recording only the fluorescence signal, the proposed fluorescence-scattering method provides a new strategy for the design of ratiometric sensors.

Environmental pollution caused by the overusage and uncontrolled discharge of antibiotics such as amoxicillin will endanger public health and ecosystems. Herein, a novel Ag/MIL-68(In)-NH 2 /Bi 4 O 7 plasmonic heterojunction has been successfully prepared through a two-step route followed by photoreduction for environmentally friendly photocatalytic amoxicillin degradation. Ag/MIL-68(In)-NH 2 /Bi 4 O 7 displayed the most efficient photocatalytic performance, which was 3.7 and 3.2 times that of Bi 4 O 7 and MIL-68(In)-NH 2 , respectively. The superior photocatalytic activity was directly linked to its large surface area and localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect, which provides more active sites and effectively promotes visible light absorption. Moreover, the degradation path of amoxicillin was explored in detail by combining Gaussian software calculation with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis. Finally, a series of characterizations and simulations were carried out to demonstrate the S-scheme photocatalytic mechanism.

Cellulose-based bioplastics with degradability and remarkable mechanical performance have recently attracted increasing attention. As a high-performance material, cellulose-based bioplastics have a strong potential to replace synthetic plastic substrates in many applications. However, its poor shielding performance to UV light limit its application. In this work, transparent and UV-blocking MIL-68(In)-NH 2 @cellulose bioplastic (M(In)CBP) sheets are fabricated via a featured processing method, i.e., cellulose liquefaction, rapid solidification, in-situ synthesis and hot-press drying. The as-obtained functional bioplastic sheet (M(In)CBP1) exhibits high visible-light transparence (74.7% a 600 nm) and the existence of MIL-68(In)-NH 2 allows superior UV-blocking ability (below 400 nm, transmittance was under 4%). The M(In)CBP sheets show high photostability even after continuous UV irradiation (365 nm) for over 12 h. The superior UV-shielding performance is attributed to the uniform distribution and the high UV absorbance of MIL-68(In)-NH 2 in M(In)CBP sheets. High resistance to penetration by aqueous/nonaqueous liquids was proved. Moreover, the M(In)CBP sheets also show excellent mechanical properties and thermal stability. The present work designed a UV-blocking bioplastic constructed from cellulose and MIL-68(In)-NH 2 , which is potential candidates to replace synthetic plastics in many advanced applications such as a UV protection layer for electronic products, or useful as packaging materials to prevent food spoilage.

For the first time, visible-light-driven g-C 3 N 4 /MIL-68(In)-NH 2 heterojunction composites with high photocatalytic activity were prepared for the degradation of ibuprofen (IBP) using an in-situ solvothermal synthesis method assisted with ultrasonication. The composites achieved intensive visible-light absorption, enhanced separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers, and high adsorption capacity, thus achieving excellent photocatalytic degradation for IBP. Among all the composites, 10 wt% g-C 3 N 4 /MIL-68(In)-NH 2 exhibited the maximum photocatalytic rate (0.01739 min −1 ), 19.28 and 2.00 times higher than those of g-C 3 N 4 and MIL-68(In)-NH 2 , respectively. Moreover, the pH, ibuprofen concentration, and catalyst dosages played important roles both in photodegradation and adsorption. In addition, the photocatalytic mechanism was also elucidated, demonstrating that h + was the main reactive species, followed by OH and O 2 − radicals, responsible for the degradation of IBP. Finally, seven aromatic intermediates of IBP were identified, and five possible degradation pathways were proposed, mainly involving hydroxylation, aldehyde oxidation, decarboxylation, and dehydrogenization reactions.

It is essential to develop a highly efficient detection platform for tetracycline (Tc). Herein, based on well-designed hierarchical MIL-68(In)-NH 2 /MWCNT/CdS composites as a highly efficient transducer, a label-free visible light driven photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor was systematically fabricated. Characterization results indicate that the forming of MIL-68(In)-NH 2 /CdS heterojunction remarkable facilitated the transfer and inhibited the recombination of charge carriers. Moreover, the transfer properties of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) further improved the photoelectric conversion efficiency by adjusting electron transport routes. The aptamer as a biorecognition unit was grafted on the modified electrode by chemical bonding effect, and Tc molecules could be captured through the specific interaction of aptamer and Tc in solution. The concentration of Tc was detected by observing the fluctuation of photocurrent signals. Under optimized conditions, the proposed aptasensor showed the broad linear range from 0.1 nmol L −1 to 1 μmol L −1 with a low detection limit (LOD) of 0.015 nmol L −1 . Furthermore, the high sensitivity, excellent reproducibility and favorable stability of the PEC sensing platform indicated the potential applications for antibiotic residues detecting in environmental media.

The efficiency of photocatalytic Nitric Oxide(NO) oxidation is limited by the lack of oxygen(O 2 ) active sites and poor charge carrier separation. To address this challenge, we developed a molecular Cobalt Phthalocyanine modified MIL-68(In)–NH 2 photocatalyst with a robust Built-in electric field(BIEF). In the 2 % CoPc-MIN sample, the BIEF strength is increased by 3.54 times and 5.83 times compared to pristine CoPc and MIL-68(In)–NH 2 , respectively. This BIEF facilitates the efficient S-scheme charge transfer, thereby enhancing photogenerated carrier separation. Additionally, the Co-N4(II) sites in CoPc can effectively trap the separated photoexcited electrons in the S-scheme system. In addition, the Co-N4(II) sites can also serve as active sites for O 2 adsorption and activation, promoting the generation of superoxide radical ( O 2 – ), thereby driving the direct conversion of NO to nitrate(NO 3 – ). Consequently, the 2 % CoPc-MIN sample exhibits a remarkable photocatalytic NO removal efficiency of 79.37 % while effectively suppressing the formation of harmful by-product nitrogen dioxide(NO 2 ) to below 3.5 ppb. This study provides a feasible strategy for designing high-efficiency O 2 activation photocatalysts for NO oxidation.

In this work, a metal–organic framework MIL-68(In)–NH2 incorporated high internal phase emulsion polymeric monolith (MIL-68(In)–NH2/polyHIPE) was prepared and applied as a solid phase extraction adsorbent for the extraction and detection of trace triazine herbicides in environmental water samples by coupling with HPLC-UV detection. The fabricated material showed good adsorption for simazine, prometryn, and prometon in water samples because of π–π interactions and hydrogen bonding interactions. Under optimal conditions, the maximum adsorption capacity of simazine, prometon and prometryn was 800 μg g−1, 800 μg g−1 and 6.01 mg g−1, respectively. The linearities were 10–800 ng mL−1 for simazine, prometon and prometryn. The limits of detection were 31–97 ng L−1, and the recoveries were 85.6–118.2% at four spiked levels with relative standard deviations lower than 5.0%. The method has a high sensitivity for the determination of three triazine herbicides in environmental water samples.

To boost the visible light catalytic performance of typical metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) materials (MIL-68(In)-NH 2 ), a novel stable Z-scheme Ag/Ag 3 PO 4 /MIL-68(In)-NH 2 plasmonic photocatalyst was constructed by electrostatic attraction, co-precipitation reaction, and in-situ photoreduction reaction methods for the first time. The photocatalytic activities of the photocatalysts are systematically explored by the photocatalytic degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) and reduction of Cr(VI) under visible light. Ag/Ag 3 PO 4 /MIL-68(In)-NH 2 displays the best photocatalytic performance among the as-prepared photocatalysts. The rate constant of BPA degradation on Ag/Ag 3 PO 4 /MIL-68(In)-NH 2 is 0.09655 min −1 , which is better than many reported photocatalytic materials. It also achieved a maximum rate constant of 0.02074 min −1 for Cr(VI) reduction. The boosted photocatalytic performance is due to the improved absorption caused by localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), effective interface charge transfer and separation, and more reactive sites provided by the large specific surface area. Besides, the photocatalytic degradation pathway of BPA is concluded according to GC-MS analysis. Finally, a more reasonable Z -scheme mechanism is speculated and verified through a series of characterizations and simulations, such as time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy (TRPL), electron spin resonance (ESR), and finite difference time domain (FDTD) method.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as photocatalysts are promising candidates for environmental wastewater treatment owing to their tunable crystal structure, well-ordered donor–acceptor interface, and exceptional porosity. However, precise control over size and morphologies of MOFs to enhance adsorptive and photocatalytic performance is still a considerable challenge. Herein, the MIL-68(In)–NH 2 (MN) MOFs with special acicular structure are customized by a facile method, in which the growth of crystal nuclei is inhibited and regulated by pyridine. The formation mechanism of MN with different morphologies and size is introduced, and their photocatalytic activities are systematically explored by degrading model pollutants tetracycline (TC) and dyes under visible light irradiation. Benefiting from its high specific surface area and the exposed large lattice spacing facet, the wool-ball morphology MN (MN-W) with surface acicular nanostructure presents an optimum photocatalytic performance compared to other MN morphologies. The MN-W also exhibits excellent adsorption capacity, remarkable cyclic stability, and good practical organic wastewater treatment capability. The possible photodegradation mechanism and pathways are elucidated, demonstrating that h + is the primary reactive species, followed by •OH and •O 2 – radicals, responsible for the degradation of TC. This work is anticipated to tailoring design and modulate MOF photocatalysts for boosting the photocatalytic performance towards organic effluents remediation.

Tubular carbon-covered cobalt-doped bi-crystalline phase In 2 O 3 (denoted as CoInO-x) was synthesized by one-step calcination of the metal-organic framework cobalt-doped MIL-68(In)-NH 2 precursor. The photocatalytic activity of CoInO-x was investigated using tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) degradation. The removal of TCH by CoInO-500 obtained by calcination at 500 °C under visible light irradiation was 90.1% after 70 min, which was significantly higher than that of In 2 O 3 . The reaction rate constant of CoInO-500 was 11.02 times higher than that of In 2 O 3 and could maintain a better photocatalytic performance after four cycles. The effects of photocatalyst dosing, pH, and inorganic anions on photocatalytic degradation were studied. The mechanism of photocatalytic degradation was analyzed in detail by reactive radical trapping experiments, Mott-Schottky measurements, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal characterization. Enhanced photocatalytic performance is mostly attributed to the cobalt doping creating impurity energy levels and narrowing the forbidden bandwidth of In 2 O 3 , enhancing the visible light utilization and the photogenerated charge separation efficiency. Carbon covering can serve as a bridge for charge transport, accelerating the rapid transport of photogenerated charges.
