The construction of efficient Z-scheme heterojunctions is considered as a promising approach to improve the transfer and separation of photogenerated carries in the field of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from water splitting. Herein, a novel ZnIn 2 S 4 /P-Ni-MOF-74 with Z-scheme heterostructure is successfully fabricated from rhombic P-Ni-MOF-74 derived from Ni-MOF-74 through phosphorization treatment and ZnIn 2 S 4 flakes via a hydrothermal method . The Z-scheme ZnIn 2 S 4 /P-Ni-MOF-74 heterojunctions can provide abundant active centers, broaden the response range to visible light region, accelerate the transfer of interfacial charges, and suppress the recombination rate of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. As a result, ZnIn 2 S 4 /P-Ni-MOF-74 (20 wt% P-Ni-MOF-74) acquires a hydrogen production rate of 7865.31 μmol g −1 h −1 , which is 4.46 times higher than that of ZnIn 2 S 4 . An apparent quantum yield is 7.84% at 420 nm wavelength. Overall, this work may provide a new pathway for the rational design of efficient Z-scheme heterojunctions with photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.

To improve the photocatalytic efficiency of the N2 reduction reaction, MXene quantum dots (Ti3C2-QDs) and two-dimensional (2D) nickel metal–organic framework (Ni-MOF) with different ratios were fabricated by a simple self-assembly strategy to form type II heterojunctions. The resultant composites showed enhanced absorption and excellent interfacial charge-transfer capabilities according to the optical and photoelectron properties. The optimal Ti3C2-QD/Ni-MOF heterostructure exhibited a considerable ammonia yield rate (88.79 μmol gcat–1 h–1). By means of X-ray absorption near-edge fine structure (XANES) technique, it was found that the interaction of Ti3C2-QD and Ni-MOF could accelerate the electron transfer, and Ni site would be the main area to enrich the electron density as well as adsorb and activate N2. Finally, with the aid of density functional theory (DFT) calculations and in situ Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR), the reaction pathway and intermediate products were studied.

The poor conductivity, unsatisfactory stability and easy aggregation of metal–organic framework (MOF) nanomaterials have been recognized as the main reasons that prevent their practical application. Here, we report the highly conductive and cyclic-stable Ti 3 C 2 MXene@pillared-layer [Ni(thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylate)(4,4′-bipyridine)] n MOF composites (MXene@Ni-MOF). Based on the hard-soft-acid-base principle, the pillared-layer Ni-MOF porous structure with Ni-N coordination bonds confer better structural stability. The Ni-MOF nanosheets are immobilized by the MXene , leading to fast charge transfer between the Ni-MOF and MXene, solving the problem of poor conductivity of Ni-MOF, while avoiding the agglomeration of Ni-MOF nanosheets. Moreover, the strong interaction between the organic ligands of Ni-MOF and surface functional groups of MXene plays a key role: it reduces the exposure of surface groups of MXene, limits the oxidation of MXene, and increases its layer spacing, thus facilitating the rapid ion transport. The MXene@Ni-MOF exhibits a high specific capacitance (979 F g −1 at 0.5 A g −1 ) and the new aqueous asymmetric supercapacitor device displays an excellent cycling property with only 2% decay after 5000 cycles.

Electrodes for supercapacitors made from metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are still hindered by electron transfer properties. Therefore, an electrode composite material Ni-MOF@PPy was synthesized from a Ni-based metal–organic framework (Ni-MOF) doped with poly-pyrrole (PPy) using a simple chemical oxidation method to improve its electron transfer property. After introducing the electrochemically active substance K4Fe(CN)6 into the electrolyte, the composite material had a specific capacitance of 1815.4 F g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1. Ni-MOF@PPy and active carbon (AC) as the positive and negative electrodes have been used, respectively, to assemble asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) in the KOH and K4Fe(CN)6 mixed electrolyte. This novel Ni-MOF@PPy//AC ASC energy storage device can provide 38.5 W h kg−1 energy density, 7001 W kg−1 power density, and 90.2% capacitance retention after 3000 cycles. Therefore, Ni-MOF@PPy//AC ASC is an excellent energy storage device with practical and economic value. The synergistic effect strategy proposed in this work can be easily applied to develop other MOFs with unique crystal structures as well as other redox active additives, providing new avenues and research ideas for exploring novel energy storage devices.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted attention due to their designable structures. However, recently reported MOF microwave-absorbing materials (MAMs) are dominated by powders. It remains a challenge to design MOF/carbon nanotube (CNT) composite structures that combine the mechanical properties of self-supporting flexibility with excellent microwave absorption. This work involves the hydrothermal approach to grow Ni-MOF of different microstructures in situ on the CNT monofilament by adjusting the molar ratio of nickel ions to organic ligands. Subsequently, an ultraflexible self-supporting Ni-MOF/CNT buckypaper (BP) is obtained by directional gas pressure filtration technology. The BP porous skeleton and the Ni-MOF with a unique porous structure provide effective impedance matching. The CNTs contribute to the conduction loss, the cross-scale heterogeneous interface generated by Ni-MOF/CNT BP provides rich interfacial polarization loss, and the porous structure complicates the microwave propagation path. All factors work together to give Ni-MOF/CNT BP an excellent microwave absorption capacity. The minimum reflection losses of Ni-MOF/CNT BPs decorated with granular-, hollow porous prism-, and porous prism-shaped Ni-MOFs reach −50.8, −57.8, and −43.3 dB, respectively. The corresponding effective absorption bandwidths are 4.5, 6.3, and 4.8 GHz, respectively. Furthermore, BPs show remarkable flexibility as they can be wound hundreds of times around a glass rod with a diameter of 4 mm without structural damage. This work presents a new concept for creating ultraflexible self-supported MOF-based MAMs with hierarchical interpenetrating porous structures, with potential application advantages in the field of flexible electronics.

The creation of considerably effective electrocatalysts to reduce overpotentials is essential for speeding up the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) processes, which is imperatively required for the practical exploitation of electrochemical water-splitting. Herein, we prepared a unique composite structure, uniformly spherical Ni-MOF decorated with NiMoO 4 nanorods on Ni foam (NF), and assessed its performance toward oxygen evolution reaction. The synergistic effect between NiMoO 4 and Ni-MOF remarkably promoted the OER intrinsic activity. Moreover, introducing NiMoO 4 endowed the composite structure with enhanced electrical conductivity and exposed more active sites. The NiMoO 4 /Ni-MOF/NF electrode exhibited exceptional electrocatalytic activity in 1.0 M KOH aqueous solution, with a low overpotential of 218 mV to drive the current density of 10 mA cm −2 and a low Tafel slope (67.75 mV dec −1 ), surpassing the benchmark RuO 2 . The presented strategy opens a promising candidate for preparing novel non-precious metal OER electrocatalysts derived from MOF materials for sustainable energy applications.

Co 3 O 4 -Ni-MOF composite was successfully prepared by solvent-thermal method and then was combined with acidified multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs); the resulting Co 3 O 4 -Ni-MOF/MWCNTs hybrid was applied in supercapacitor and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The electrochemical tests including cyclic voltammetric (CV), galvanostatic charge and discharge (GCD), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and cycle life were also performed to investigate the supercapacitor properties of the as-prepared materials. The experimental results show that when the molar ratio of metal oxide material and Ni-MOF material is 1:1, Co 3 O 4 -Ni-MOF material displays better electrochemical performance. As the mass ratio of Co 3 O 4 -Ni-MOF and MWCNTs is 1:1, Co 3 O 4 -Ni-MOF/MWCNTs hybrid exhibits lower Rct value, higher cyclic capacitance stability, and better supercapacitor performance. Therefore, Co 3 O 4 -Ni-MOF/MWCNTs hybrid as an electrode material has a relatively ideal application prospect in terms of supercapacitor materials. Graphical abstract

To address the growing need for high-performance microwave absorbing materials in modern communication and radar technologies, this study proposes a hierarchical heterostructured engineering strategy to integrate multiple loss mechanisms and optimize electromagnetic wave absorption. The hierarchical heterostructured C/TiO 2 /Ni@C composites were constructed via in situ hydrothermal synthesis combined with high-temperature calcination. The microwave absorption properties of the composite can be tuned by adjusting the MXene doping level and pyrolysis temperature. The TiO 2 /C framework derived from MXene and porous Ni@C microspheres derived from Ni-MOF enhance dielectric losses (interfacial polarization and dipole relaxation). The precipitated Ni magnetic nanoparticles improve magnetic losses. Compared with traditional microwave absorbing materials such as single-phase carbon or metal oxides, the C/TiO 2 /Ni@C-2 composite thermally decomposed at 600 °C exhibits excellent microwave absorption properties with an optimal reflection loss of −57 dB at a thickness of 4.26 mm and a frequency of 7.1 GHz. Upon optimization to a thickness of 2.16 mm, its effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) extends to 5.34 GHz (12.43–17.77 GHz), thereby fully encompassing the Ku band. The exceptional microwave absorption performance is attributed to its distinctive magnetic-dielectric layered architecture, heterointerface synergy, and optimized impedance matching, offering critical insights for designing next-generation broadband microwave absorbers.

In this study, three-dimensional flower-like Ni-MOFs were fabricated and successfully functionalized on multi-terminal lamellar MXene (Ti 3 C 2 T x ) by solvothermal method, and their flame retardant application in thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) was investigated. As expected, the addition of Ni-MOF@Ti 3 C 2 T x can improve the flame retardancy and smoke suppression properties of TPU. The heat release rate, the smoke release rate, total smoke production, CO and CO 2 release of the composite with only 1 wt% MOF@Ti 3 C 2 T x were significantly reduced by 15%, 44%, 26%, 18%, and 8%, respectively. Furthermore, the carbon residues of TPU/Ni-MOF@Ti 3 C 2 T x composites were about 2–5 times that of pure TPU, indicating that the Ni-MOF@Ti 3 C 2 T x can inhibit the thermal degradation of TPU. The mechanism illustrated that the excellent fire safety properties of TPU/Ni-MOF@Ti 3 C 2 T x composites are due to the physical barrier, catalytical carbonization, and gas-phase flame retardant of Ni-MOF@Ti 3 C 2 T x . In this work, the dispersity, thermal stability, and flame retardancy of MXene were improved due to the modification of MXene with Ni-MOF by chemical bonding and physical adsorption, which can broaden the range of applications of MOFs .

In this study, a porous Ni-MOF formulated as {(H 2 NMe 2 )[Ni 3 (μ 3 OH)(TPT)(TZB) 3 ](H 2 O) 6 (DMA) 7 } n (TZB = 4-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)benzoate, TPT = 2,4,6-tri(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine, and DMA = N,N-dimethylacetamide) was prepared and its C 2 H 2 and CO 2 adsorption performances were systemically studied both experimentally and computationally. The structural analysis by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies reveals that the prepared Ni-MOF crystallizes in the space group P6 3 mc and features a porous pacs -type network composed of trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral cages. The activated Ni-MOF (Ni-MOF-a) shows a high C 2 H 2 uptake capacity of 157 cm 3 /g with a moderate C 2 H 2 /CO 2 IAST selectivity of 3.3 at 298 K and 1 bar. More importantly, Ni-MOF-a shows a low adsorption heat for C 2 H 2 ranging from 24.6 to 27.1 kJ/mol at 298 K with a high separation potential of 2.85 mol/kg. In the computational simulation section, six sets of point charge derived from different approaches (Qeq, Mulliken, PACMOF, mCBAC, Mepoml, PACMAN) and two different force-fields (UFF and Dreiding) were used to calculate the C 2 H 2 and CO 2 adsorption isotherms and then compared with the experimental values. Our results reveal that great care should be taken in the selection of point charges and force fields, and the unsuitable combinations might result in an inappropriate C 2 H 2 /CO 2 selectivity which is against the experimental results.

A novel BiOBr/Ni-MOF composite was fabricated by in-situ growth of BiOBr nanosheets on Ni-MOF through a convenient precipitation process. The optimal photocatalytic performance was achieved with a Ni-MOF mass content of 45 wt% in the BiOBr/Ni-MOF composite. This composite exhibited remarkable efficiency, degrading 98.33 % of Rhodamine B in 90 min, surpassing the degradation rate constants of pristine BiOBr and Ni-MOF by 4.2 and 160 times, respectively. The superior performance was primarily ascribed to the efficient separation of photogenerated carriers facilitated by the formation of heterojunctions. Additionally, the increased specific surface area and pore structure provided numerous adsorption and active sites. Radical scavenger experiments and electron spin resonance experiments further revealed that O 2 − and h + played crucial roles in the degradation process. Furthermore, the structural properties of the prepared photocatalysts and the effects of different photocatalytic conditions on the degradation of RhB were investigated. This work offers an alternative perspective on the design and fabrication of BiOBr-based composite photocatalysts.

Two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks and nanoflowers of the MoS 2 form a composite structure as an electrode material for high-performance supercapacitor application. MoS 2 expands in the accordion-type Ni-MOF layers, and -S- joins the two materials to form a Ni-MOF coating MoS 2 composite structure. The composite material MoS 2 @Ni-MOF combines the structural characteristics of the Ni-MOF and MoS 2 , and effectively improves the electrochemical performance. The basic skeleton structure of the MoS 2 @Ni-MOF material remains unchanged, showing a remarkable specific capacitance of 1590.24 F·g −1 at a current density of 1.0 A·g −1 and an excellent cycle stability (retention rate of 87.97% after 20,000 cycles at current of 5.0 A·g −1 ). Due to the special composite structure of MoS 2 @Ni-MOF, the as-assembled MoS 2 @Ni-MOF//AC assymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device exhibits a maximum energy density of 72.93 Wh·kg −1 at a power density of 375 W·Kg −1 . These excellent electrochemical properties indicate that the MoS 2 @Ni-MOF has potential applications in energy storage devices.
