Materials with passive daytime radiative cooling (PDRC) have drawn more attention as a result of their potential for energy savings. We prepared SiO 2 -encapsulated ZnO@ZIF-8 (ZZS) particles and a radiative cooling coating containing ZZS particles. Owing to the polyhedron structure and the phonon-polarization resonance of ZZS particles, the ZZS fabric coating could reflect sunlight with 83% and radiate heat to outer space with 0.96. Compared with the ambient air, its average temperature decreased by 6.4 °C, and the human body under direct sunlight could avoid overheating 3.9 °C. In addition, the ZZS coated fabric after rubbing still had good PDRC and its average temperature increased by 1.38℃ higher than the original ZZS coated fabric. Owing to good PDRC property, hydrophobicity, mechanical properties and simple methods, the widespread usage of ZZS coated fabric for personal thermal management appears to be promising.

Construction of metal oxide nanoparticles on ZIF-8 has produced many novel hybrid materials with interesting properties, of which ZnO-ZIF-8 is a typical representative. However, due to the powdered crystalline state of ZnO-ZIF-8 hybrid materials, their processability and handling remain a significant challenge. In this work, a multifunctional ZnO-ZIF-8/bamboo composite was successfully fabricated through in-situ growth of spherical ZnO-ZIF-8 hybrid nanoparticles within natural bamboo substrates. At a 6.8 wt% ZnO-ZIF-8 loading, the resulting composite displays highly removal efficiency up to 97.6% for methylene blue (MB) and the adsorption capacity can reach 226.7 mg·g−1 at 298 K. The MB removal efficiency dropped to 96.0% after five cycles, revealing the composite exhibited an excellent recyclability. Furthermore, the introduction of ZnO-ZIF-8 remarkably enhanced the thermal stability and flame retardancy of the natural bamboo. Compared with the untreated natural bamboo, the peak of heat release rate of the ZnO-ZIF-8/bamboo composite exhibited a drastic decline by 61.6% from 45.3 W·g−1 to 17.4 W·g−1 and the total heat release from 7.6 kJ·g−1 to 4.4 kJ·g−1. This work offers a new avenues for designing and constructing functionalized MOFs@bamboo composite that may boost their environmental- and green building-related applications.

ZnO@ZIF-8 films were prepared on Q235 steel surface through solvothermal reaction by pre-electrodepositing ZnO films and modified with stearic acid (SA). The surface morphology , elements content, crystal structure and chemical structure of films were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The wettability of films was measured by water contact angle meter. The corrosion behavior of films was tested by Electrochemical tests. ZnO films show hexagonal nanotubular morphology, having the best compactness and corrosion resistance at deposition current density of 2.3 mA/cm 2 with the protection efficiency of 90.11%. After solvothermal reaction, ZIF-8 grains are formed and clad ZnO nanotubes , forming a contact film to prevent corrosive ions attacking steel efficiently. ZnO@ZIF-8 films have the best compactness and corrosion resistance at Zn 2+ concentration of 0.06 mol/L with the protection efficiency of 99.83%. But the corrosion resistance of ZnO@ZIF-8 film declines quickly for the water molecules can get inside the film and destroy the bond between ZIF-8 grains. Thus, SA was grafted to ZnO@ZIF-8 film to enhance its hydrophobicity . After SA modification, the protection efficiency reaches 99.99% and maintains at 95.29% after 14 days immersion in the solution of 3.5 wt.% NaCl .

A longstanding quest in material science has been the development of superhydrophobic coating based on a single material, without the requirement of fluorination or silane treatment. In this work, the micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coating as transition layer can effectively enhance the bonding force of the superhydrophobic coating. The semiconductor@metal organic frameworks (MOFs) core-shell structure was synthesized by a simple self-templating method, and obtained ZnO@2-methylimidazole zinc salt (ZIF-8) nanorods array on magnesium (Mg) alloy. ZnO nanorods not only act as the template but also provide Zn 2+ for ZIF-8. In addition, we proved that the ligand concentration, synthesis time and temperature are the keys to the preparation of ZnO@ZIF-8 nanorods. As we expect, the ZnO@ZIF-8 nanorods array can trap air in the gaps to form an air layer, and the coating exhibits superhydrophobic properties (154.81°). Excitingly, ZnO@ZIF-8 nanorods array shown a superhydrophobic property, without the requirement of fluorination or silane treatment. The results shown that the coating has good chemical stability and self-cleaning performance. Meanwhile, the corrosion resistance has been significantly improved, R ct was increased from 1.044×10 3 to 1.414×10 6 Ω/cm 2 and I corr was reduced from 4.275×10 −5 to 5.611×10 −9 A/cm 2 . Therefore, the semiconductor@MOFs core-shell structure has broad application prospects in anti-corrosion.

Controllable encapsulation of nanoparticles with metal organic frameworks (MOFs) has been an efficient way to impart the unique chemical and physical properties of the nanoparticles to metal organic frameworks and create new types of multifunctional MOF core–shell materials with enhanced properties. Here, a novel ZnO support-induced encapsulation strategy is reported to efficiently fabricate a Pd/ZnO@ZIF-8 core–shell catalyst, with Pd/ZnO as the core and ZIF-8 as the shell. The novel synthesis procedure involves first loading Pd nanoparticles onto the surface of the ZnO microsphere to form a Pd/ZnO core and then coating the core with a layer of defect-free ZIF-8 shell via ZnO-induced in situ ZIF-8 growth to obtain the Pd/ZnO@ZIF-8 core–shell catalyst. It was crucial that the ZIF-8 was in situ formed from the ZnO core in an ethanol solution only containing 2-methylimidazole under mild conditions. This strategy allowed for the growth of ZIF-8 right on the surface of Pd/ZnO via the reaction between ZnO and the 2-methylimidazole ligands, and thus avoided the random deposition of ZIF-8 crystals on the Pd/ZnO core as in the case of the conventional ZIF-8 synthesis solution. Furthermore, use of ethanol as the solvent also favored achievement of the well-defined Pd/ZnO@ZIF-8 structure, since the ethanol solution of 2-methylimidazole was able to keep the balance between ZnO dissolution and ZIF-8 formation. The as-prepared Pd/ZnO@ZIF-8 core–shell microsphere as an efficient catalyst displayed excellent performance in terms of size-selectivity, stability and anti-poisoning in the liquid hydrogenations of alkenes.

A highly sensitive electrochemical nanostructure sensor based on a ZnO@ZIF-8 nanocomposite-modified carbon paste (ZnO@ZIF-8/CPE) electrode was constructed for trace analysis of sulfamethoxazole (SMX). ZnO@ZIF-8 was synthesized by the hydrothermal method and characterized using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Electrochemical experiments demonstrated a synergistic effect of ZnO and ZIF-8 that endowed the prepared sensor with excellent electrocatalytic behavior towards SMX oxidation. Under optimal conditions, the ZnO@ZIF-8/CPE sensor demonstrated a wide linear range of 0.04-50 μM for SMX and a regression coefficient of 0.9914 and a limit of detection of 0.02 μM. The sensor possessed good stability, selectivity, anti-jamming ability and reproducibility and was successfully used for SMX determinations in egg samples. The proposed sensor is ready to use for biomedicine and environmental protection monitoring.

A novel method was established to create ZnO/ZIF-8 core/shell heterostructured film piezo-photocatalysts for highly efficient removal of pollutants from water. This method was inspired by distinctive pore structure of ZIF-8 and has the advantage of simple and quick synthesis. In this work, ZnO/ZIF-8 heterostructure thin films were created by growing ZIF-8 metal organic framework in-situ on inverse opal structure ZnO films, which also served as the porous template and zinc source of ZIF-8 simultaneously. Thus, the ZnO/ZIF-8 core/shell heterostructure is composed of ZnO core and ZIF-8 shell. The inverse opal structure enhances the process of light absorption, and the heterostructure is crucial for enhancing the carrier concentration. The ZnO/ZIF-8 heterostructure films exhibit significant degradation capacity towards Rhodamine B (RhB) and tetracycline (TC). Under UV light and ultrasound, the degradation efficiency of ZnO/ZIF-8 heterostructure is much higher than that of ZnO film and ZIF-8 film for RhB solution, indicating that the heterostructure films have a great potential for use in the field of water pollution prevention. This study not only presents an effective method for quickly creating heterostructures, but also demonstrates a path for improving the piezo-photocatalytic efficiency by manipulating the morphology and structure of ZnO/ZIF-8.

A metal-organic framework (ZnO@ZIF-8) with great adsorption potential was developed using ZnO nanoparticles as a surface-active center and applied to lead removal from wastewater. The adsorption experiments were carried out and the related adsorption behaviors were investigated. The adsorbent shows excellent adsorption performance between pH 3–5. The maximum adsorption capacity of ZnO@ZIF-8 for Pb (II) was 689.36 mg/g at 303 K. The adsorptive process of Pb (II) onto ZnO@ZIF-8 conforms to the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. Thermodynamics illustrate that the adsorption process is chemical adsorption on a uniform surface. Selectivity experiments showed that ZnO@ZIF-8 had the strongest affinity with Pb (II). The adsorption-desorption cycle confirmed that ZnO@ZIF-8 was a reliable and recyclable adsorbent. XPS, Zeta potential and FT-IR analysis illustrate that the adsorption of Pb (II) by ZnO@ZIF-8 was concentrated in electrostatic adsorption and chelation. DFT calculation indicated that there are different types of Pb (II) combination mode (Pb-N and Pb-O) and the adsorption mainly depended on the chelation. This study presented herein played important roles in the governance of heavy metal waste-water pollution as a result of ZnO@ZIF-8 can effective selectivity cleanup of Pb (II).

ZnO semiconductors have been widely used as photocatalysts. However, the weak photodegradation under solar light restrains their further application. In this study, porous zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), which has a high specific surface, was combined with ZnO nanorods to fabricate ZnO@ZIF-8 core–shell heterostructures, with the ZnO nanorods and ZIF-8 as the core and the shell, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy measurements revealed that the ZnO nanorods were wrapped by a ZIF-8 shell. The pore size distribution of these ZnO@ZIF-8 nanocomposites included micropores, mesopores, and macropores. Moreover, a Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis showed an increase compared with the ZnO nanorods in the overall specific surface area. Due to a synergistic effect of ZnO and ZIF-8, the as-synthesized ZnO@ZIF-8 heterostructures exhibited high photocatalytic activity and completely degraded methylene blue in ∼4.5 min under solar light irradiation. Furthermore, stability experiments proved that the as-prepared ZnO@ZIF-8 nanocomposites retain over 95% of their photocatalytic activity after four cycles.

In this study, the morphology of ZnO was altered from nanofibers to hollow nanotubes by Ce doping, mainly owing to the Kirkendall effect originating from different diffusion rates of constituent elements. A novel one-dimensional core-shell nanotube (ZnO-CeO 2 @ZIF-8) was successfully fabricated, characterized by a distinctive structure comprising a ZIF-8 shell and a ZnO-CeO 2 nanotube core. The as-prepared ZnO-CeO 2 @ZIF-8 exhibited a large specific surface area, substantial pore volume, and strong affinity towards CO 2 . These ZnO-CeO 2 @ZIF-8 were integrated into Pebax-1657 to construct MMMs for high-efficiency CO 2 transport and separation. Furthermore, the unique 1D hollow structure of the filler effectively reduced the resistance to mass transfer and enhanced gas permeability, while the ZIF-8 shell and Ce-induced oxygen vacancies synergistically enhanced the CO 2 adsorption and selectivity. The Pebax/ZnO-CeO 2 @ZIF-8 MMMs containing 3 wt% loading demonstrate superior performance, characterized by a CO 2 permeability of 94.0 Barrer and CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of 64.8 respectively. Compared to the unmodified Pebax, these values exhibit enhancements of 73.4% and 36.7%, suggesting that ZnO-CeO 2 @ZIF-8 holds considerable promise in the realm of MMMs for adsorption and separation of CO 2 .

Background Malondialdehyde (MDA) is a pivotal oxidative stress biomarker implicated in cardiovascular diseases, neurodegeneration, and cancer; however, its trace quantification in complex biological matrices remains analytically daunting. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing offers inherently low background noise and exceptional sensitivity for trace bioanalysis. Nevertheless, efficiently translating molecular recognition into amplified PEC signals remains a challenge. Results We report a nanoconfinement-mediated PEC interface that integrates covalent molecular conjugation with plasmonic amplification within a crystalline matrix scaffold. Within this nanoconfined environment, localized Au nanoparticles serve as plasmonic amplifiers that anchor 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) receptors. Upon MDA recognition, the optimized sensor exhibits dual linear detection ranges spanning 0.001 to 1.0 nmol L −1 ( R 1 2 = 0.9928) and 1.0 to 1000 nmol L −1 ( R 2 2 = 0.9992), yielding an ultralow detection limit of 0.3 pmol L −1 . Significance The confined Schiff-base reaction between 4-ATP and MDA generates an interfacial reaction product, leading to a new absorption band at approximately 450 nm and modulation of the Au LSPR band. This change is mainly attributed to the altered local dielectric environment around Au NPs. Wavelength-dependent operando transient photovoltage spectroscopy (TPV) provides mechanistic evidence that plasmon-driven hot-carrier injection augments PEC signal output. Overall, this work establishes an interface-engineering paradigm that integrates molecular conjugation with plasmonic coupling, offering a promising blueprint for the PEC detection of small-molecule biomarkers.
