Contamination of drinking water with heavy metals, particularly arsenic (As), is a persistent problem with serious public health implications worldwide. In this study, we present a zinc based metal-organic framework (Zn-MOF-74) and polyacrylamide polymer (PAM) coated on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as an effective adsorbent for the removal of arsenite (As(III)) from water. Zn-MOF-74 nanoparticles were prepared by room-temperature precipitation and these were immobilized on rGO surface grafted PAM by a free-radical polymerization method, (Zn-MOF-74/rGO/PAM nanocomposites). The experimental data correlates well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm, and the maximum adsorption capacity ( q max ) was 282.4 mg g −1 at pH 10, 298 K. The removal efficiency was rapid, removing more than 99.8% of As(III) from a 0.2 mg L −1 solution and achieving drinkable levels in 15 min. Thermodynamic data revealed that the process was spontaneous and endothermic. Furthermore, the adsorbent revealed high stability in pH range 4–10 and could be reused at least four times. Adsorption mechanism involved a synergistic combination of chemisorption and physisorption. FTIR and XPS analyzes revealed that the amide group (–NH 2 ) and hydroxyl group (–OH) on Zn-MOF-74/rGO/PAM dominate in their adsorption.

Here, a novel colorimetric sensing platform for highly selective detection of Fe3+ in aqueous solutions was developed based on zero-dimensional Zn-MOF-74 [Zn2(DOBDC), DOBDC = 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid] nanodots. The first ultrasmall Zn-MOF-74 nanodots with the average size within 10 nm were successfully synthesized by manipulating the initial conditions with a diluted material system. It was found that the ultrasamll MOF nanodots had a highly selective interaction with Fe3+ and showed a specific blue colorimetric change in aqueous solution. The highly dispersive nature in aqueous solution and high surface-to-volume ratio help MOF-74 nanodots closely interact with the targeted Fe3+ ions with a low limit of detection of 1.04 μM and a fast response within seconds. Finally, we demonstrate that the selective Fe3+ sensing mechanism of Zn-MOF-74 nanodots is due to the selective framework disruption and the formation of Fe-DOBDC salt complex with blue color. It is the first report of nanoscale MOF based colorimetric Fe3+ sensor with low limit of detection (LOD) comparable even to fluorescent MOF based Fe3+ sensors, which could be easily observed by naked-eye without expensive fluorescence apparatuses. The good colorimetric stability in aqueous environment, low limit of detection, rapid response, and nanosize nature enable this MOF nanodot to be a good Fe3+ sensing probe for biological and environmental sensing applications.

The enantioselective performance of porous chiral metal–organic frameworks (CMOFs) is closely related to the pore size and uniformity of easily accessible active sites. The chiral recognition efficiency of microporous CMOFs is hindered by the restricted diffusion of the guest. Hierarchical porous chiral CMOFs with multiple pore size regimes ranging from micropores to macropores have emerged as potential candidates in chiral separation applications. 3DOM Zn-MOF-74 crystalline porous material with ordered macro–micropore structure was prepared with a general bottom-up strategy by carrying out the controllable confined growth of Zn-MOF-74 precursor in a removable three-dimensional ordered macroporous (3DOM) polystyrene (PS) template. Then l-tryptophan ( l -Trp) was introduced into MOFs by the strategy of postsynthetic modifications, and finally, a chiral hierarchical porous functional material 3DOM Zn-MOF-74-l-Trp was successfully fabricated. Based on the two luminescent centers from the achiral ligand H4DOBC and chiral ligand l-Trp, the proportional fluorescence sensor 3DOM Zn-MOF-74-l-Trp was hopeful to be applied in the field of enantioselective fluorescence sensing. The enantioselectivity factor values of microporous M-Zn-MOF-74-l-Trp for 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol (Binol) and mandelic acid (MA) were 1.08 and 1.12, respectively. In comparison, the construction of hierarchical porous structure greatly enhanced the chiral recognition performance, which may be due to the improved mass-transfer efficiency of chiral guest molecules and highly swelled accessibility to the chiral recognition sites in this CMOF composite, making the enantioselectivity factor values correspondingly increased to 1.29 and 2.26, respectively.

Bone regenerative biomaterials are essential in treating bone defects as they serve as extracellular matrix (ECM) mimics, creating a favorable environment for cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation. However, the currently used bone regenerative biomaterials mostly exhibit high stiffness, which may lead to difficulties in degradation and thus increase the risk of foreign body ingestion. In this study, we prepared soft fibrous scaffolds modified with Zn-MOF-74 nanoparticles via electrostatic spinning. The soft fibers (only 1 kPa) permit remodeling under cellular adhesive force, optimizing the mechanical cues in the microenvironment to support cell adhesion and mechanosensing. In addition, the incorporation of Zn-MOF-74 nanoparticles enables the stable and sustained release of zinc ions, promoting stem cell mechanotransduction and osteogenic differentiation. Therefore, the hybrid soft fibers facilitate the regeneration of new bone in the rat femoral defect model, which provides a promising approach for regenerative medicine.

Various strategies have shown promise for addressing the volume expansion issue of silicon (Si)-based anode materials and enhancing their electrochemical performance, such as nanocrystallization and the use of carbon-encapsulated nano-Si particles. However, the agglomeration of nano-Si particles remains a challenge, limiting their full potential. In this study, Zn-MOF-74 was employed to improve the dispersion of nano-Si powder in a carbon source. Subsequently, polyacrylonitrile was used in an electrospinning process to prepare an effective coating, followed by heat treatment to prepare nitrogen-doped Si/C flexible anode composites. The influence of the coating degree on electrochemical performance was investigated, and the Si/C-MOF-74/CNFs-2 composite prepared with 30.3 wt% nano-Si particles exhibited specific discharge capacities of 1030.1 mAh·g −1 after 150 cycles at 0.1 A·g −1 , 610.8 mAh·g −1 after 300 cycles at 1.0 A·g −1 , and 409.1 mAh·g −1 after 300 cycles at 2.0 A·g −1 .

Radioactive strontium ( 90 Sr) contamination in water bodies poses one of the most persistent and serious threats to both ecological safety and public health, owing to its long half-life, high environmental mobility, and strong propensity for biological accumulation. However, a rapid and sustainable synthetic route for bimetallic MOF-74 with high Sr 2+ adsorption capacity remains lacking. This study reports a solvent‑free mechanochemical strategy for the synthesis of a bimetallic Cu/Zn-MOF-74 (CZ-M74-11) using a spiral gas-solid flow (S-GSF) method in just 1 min. The material achieves 98.26% Sr 2+ removal within 15 min and exhibits a maximum Langmuir adsorption capacity of 295.13 mg·g −1 at 303.15 K. Kinetic and thermodynamic analyses indicate that the adsorption is spontaneous and exothermic. XPS and FT-IR analyses, together with cyclic desorption data, reveal that Sr 2+ uptake proceeds primarily through outer-sphere complexation, with a minor contribution from inner‑sphere coordination involving carboxylate groups. This work addresses the gap in rapid and sustainable routes for bimetallic MOF-74 synthesis by introducing an S-GSF method that achieves excellent adsorption capacity and ultrafast kinetics for Sr 2+ removal.
