To exploit the low-cost and efficient catalyst for the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane , trace amount of palladium-doped transition metal (Cu, Ni, Co, Fe and Zn) nanoparticles have been incorporated into the interior of metal-organic frameworks named ZIF-8, ZIF-67, ZIF-67/ZIF-8 and core-shell ZIF-67@ZIF-8 by a double-solvent approach. The optimized catalyst of CuPd 0.01 @ZIF-67@ZIF-8 composite exhibited an excellent activity with a turnover frequency (TOF) value of 30.15 mol H 2 (mol metal ) −1 min −1 at 298 K and a relatively low activation energy of 38.78 kJ mol −1 . It might attributed to both ultrafine size of metal nanoparticles (~3 nm) induced by the confinement of core-shell ZIF-67@ZIF-8 and the synergistic effect between Pd and Cu. Moreover, the detailed kinetic study has manifested that this catalytic reaction is first-order in regards to the catalyst amount while zero-order as for the concentration of ammonia borane. In addition, the durability and recyclability of CuPd 0.01 @ZIF-67@ZIF-8 have been demonstrated to be great.

H 2 gas sensors with facile preparation, high sensitivity and low detection limits are crucial for hydrogen energy safety. Given the high surface area, abundant porosity and high stability, zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) provide a potential development path for hydrogen sensors. In this work, ZIF-67@ZIF-8 modified with palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) was synthesized by room-temperature solution synthesis and NaBH 4 reduction method. The xPd@ZIF-67@ZIF-8 (x=10, 20, 30, 40) samples exhibit a rough mesoporous surface due to etching of NaBH 4 and feature a uniform distribution of Pd NPs. The modification of Pd NPs broadens the hole accumulation layer (HAL) of ZIF-67@ZIF-8 and decreases the resistance (from ~500 to 1 MΩ), thereby reducing the operating temperature. It is noteworthy that the operating temperature zone of 20 Pd@ZIF-67@ZIF-8 is 85-115 ℃ with higher hydrogen sensitivity than the other sensors at optimum operating temperature (≥ 100 ℃). Meanwhile, the 20 Pd@ZIF-67@ZIF-8 sensor demonstrates a rapid response speed to low concentration H 2 (response to 50 ppm H 2 within 8 s) on account of the spillover and catalytic effects of Pd NPs. Furthermore, the 20 Pd@ZIF-67@ZIF-8 sensor possesses a relatively low theoretical detection limit (16.5 ppb), and exhibits excellent moisture resistance, cycle and long-term stability. This sensitive material provides a prospective avenue for hydrogen energy safety monitoring.

As the amount of tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA) that causes potential adverse effects on human health in the environment is continually increasing. It is therefore important to develop new materials for the adsorption or degradation of these compounds using various techniques. In this study, two novel magnetic recyclable composite catalysts Zr–NiFe 2 O 4 @ZIF-67 and Zr–NiFe 2 O 4 @ZIF-8 were synthesized. These catalysts degraded tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA) in water by activating peroxydisulfate (PDS)/peroxymonosulfate (PMS), respectively. The results show that the Zr–NiFe 2 O 4 @ZIF-67-5%/LED/(NH 4 ) 2 S 2 O 8 system can degrade 95% of TCBPA (20 mg/L) within 30 min, whereas the Zr–NiFe 2 O 4 @ZIF-8-10%/LED/KHSO 5 system degrades 90% of TCBPA within 30 min. In instances of metal leaching at low concentrations, nickel and iron ions declined to 0.008 mg·L −1 , TCBPA exhibits highly efficient and sustainable catalytic properties, maintaining over 80% efficacy across six cycles. The online infrared test experiment results showed the major functional groups disappearing within approximately 130 s. The results of electron paramagnetic resonance and free-radical-quenching experiments showed that SO 4 ˙ − , ˙OH, 1 O 2 , and O 2 ˙ − were involved in the degradation of TCBPA. The possible degradation paths are isomerization polymerization, dechlorination, hydroxylation, ring-opening by oxidation, and further transformation into small molecules of acids, aldehydes, alcohols and other compounds. Thus, in this study, a reliable technique for the degradation of halogenated bisphenol compounds is developed. Overall, the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants in water utilizing polymetallic composites as catalysts represents an innovative approach to water treatment, demonstrating enhanced catalytic activity and recyclability, with promising prospects for significant advancements in both theoretical research and practical applications.

With a high porosity and highly adaptable topology, ZIF-67 is considered the most promising photocatalyst and has received much attention and development. However, the photoactive electron extraction rate of ZIF-67 is still low, which is a major problem limiting its further development. In this paper, based on the type I structure and using quantum dots (QDs) as the active site, we obtain the QDs@ZIF-67/ZIF-8 heterostructure, which ensures high-yield hydrogen efficiency. Quantum dots, as the transmission site of photogenerated electrons, improve the photogenerated carrier utilization rate generated by the strong absorption ability of ZIF-67 in the visible-light region. Through careful characterization, it was found that the optimal photocatalytic rate of 4999.7 μmol·g–1·h–1, a value 30 times higher than that of QDs, provides an innovative band gap-matching design for adjusting the charge transfer characteristics of QDs with a narrow band gap, which realizes the efficient utilization of visible light.

A core–shell ZIF-67@ZIF-8-derived Co nanoparticles embedded in N-doped carbon nanotube polyhedra (Co/C-NCNP) hybrid nanostructure was prepared by a pyrolysis method. The synthesized Co/C-NCNP was modified on the screen-printed carbon electrode and used for the portable wireless sensitive determination of breviscapine (BVC) by differential pulse voltammetry. The Co/C-NCNP had a large surface area and excellent catalytic activity with increasing Co sites to combine with BVC for selective determination, which led to the improvement of the sensitivity of the electrochemical sensor. Under optimized conditions, the constructed sensor had linear ranges from 0.15 to 20.0 µmol/L and 20.0 to 100.0 µmol/L with the limit of detection of 0.014 µmol/L (3S 0 /S). The sensor was successfully applied to BVC tablet sample analysis with satisfactory results. This work provided the potential applications of zeolitic imidazolate framework-derived nanomaterials in the fabrication of electrochemical sensors for the sensitive detection of drug samples.

Membrane separation technology offers a promising energy-efficient alternative to the energy-intensive separation of alkenes from alkanes, yet existing membranes are generally constrained by low selectivity and high mass transfer resistance. To address this, we constructed hollow ZIF-67@ZIF-8 (H-ZIF-67@8) core-shell nanocages with staggered interfacial pores and sieve properties, and incorporated them into a polyimide to fabricate mixed matrix membranes (MMMs). Mechanistic investigations reveal that the hollow cavity of H-ZIF-67@8 significantly minimizes diffusion resistance and serves as a fast track for gas transport. In addition, the staggered interfacial pores induced by lattice mismatch at the H-ZIF-67@8 core-shell interface enable precise kinetic sieving of C 3 H 6 /C 3 H 8 . By synergistically intensifying the diffusion and sieving mechanisms, the optimized MMM with 20 wt% loading showed a C 3 H 6 permeability of 62.12 Barrer and a C 3 H 6 /C 3 H 8 selectivity of 33.52, thereby surpassing the 2003 Robeson upper bound. This work provides new insights for the molecular engineering design of next-generation high-performance gas separation membranes.

Herein, Co–Zn bimetallic center-modulated ZIF-67@ZIF-8 composites were prepared by ultrasonic synthesis, and the effects of the metal ratio on the photothermal coupling catalytic CO2 reduction performance and product selectivity were systematically investigated. The experiments showed that catalysts with higher Zn content (e.g., Co0.1Zn0.9) exhibited higher CH4 selectivity (29.32%), while the high Co ratio (e.g., Co0.9Zn0.1) significantly enhanced the CO generation rate (3.13 μmol g−1 h−1). Characterization by N2 adsorption, XRD, XPS, UV-vis DRS, and in situ DRIFTS revealed that the metal ratio affected the CO2 adsorption and electron transport efficiency by modulating the catalyst specific surface area (1213 → 555 m2 g−1), the band gap width (3.53 → 3.39 eV), and the distribution of the surface-active sites. The DFT calculations further revealed the synergistic effect of Co/Zn: high Zn content lowers the *CHO generation barrier (3.45 eV) and promotes the CH4 pathway, while the Co center enhances CO2 activation. This study provides a theoretical and experimental basis for the optimization of CO2 reduction product selectivity through precise regulation of metal centers.

The performance of zinc–air batteries (ZABs) is often hindered by the limited activity and sluggish kinetics of bifunctional electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). In this work, a high-performance bifunctional catalyst (FeCo-NC@rGO) was synthesized by anchoring ZIF-derived Co5.47N and CoFe nanoparticles (NPs) onto a reduced graphene oxide (rGO) aerogel, accompanied by in situ growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The M–N–C sites within the carbon matrix provide abundant ORR active centers, while Co5.47N and CoFe NPs impart excellent OER activity. As a result, FeCo-NC@rGO exhibits a high ORR half-wave potential of 0.85 V (vs. RHE) and a low OER overpotential of 400 mV at 10 mA cm−2, outperforming Pt/C (0.82 V) and RuO2 (508 mV), respectively. A liquid ZAB using this catalyst achieves an open-circuit voltage of 1.51 V, a power density of 114.6 mW cm−2, a specific capacity of 838.2 mAh g−1, and stable cycling for 250 h. The solid-state ZAB also demonstrates strong performance with excellent durability. This study provides an effective and scalable strategy for developing advanced bifunctional electrocatalysts for high-performance ZABs.

Chirality is a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature and has attracted wide attention in the biomedicine, pharmaceutics and biosensing research fields. Enantiomeric recognition of chiral compounds, especially chiral drugs and chiral amino acids, is important for human health and nutrition. In this work, through the encapsulation of L-His&R6G (L-His = L-Histidine; R6G = Rhodamine 6G) into MOF@MOF framework ZIF-67@ZIF-8, composited material L-His&R6G@ZIF-67@ZIF-8 can be obtained. Additionally, through the etching process, a unique yolk-shell ZIF-8 chiral composite optical sensors L-His&R6G@ZIF-8 ( 1 ) can be successfully prepared. Photo-luminescent (PL) experiment also reveals that 1 can highly sensitively detect L-Proline (L-Pro) through the “turn-on” detection strategy (K BH = 1.22 × 10 4 M −1 and detection limit 1.9 μM). Further yolk-shell L-His&R6G@ZIF-8-based fabricate flexible mixed-matrix membranes has been prepared using doctor-blading technique, which show significant fluorescence enhancement effect under ultraviolet lamp. This work also provides the unique example of preparing chiral yolk-shell framework composite sensors, which have broad application in chiral sensing area.
