Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) uses the Fenton reaction to generate highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (∙OH) to achieve efficient treatment strategies for tumors. However, the high concentration of glutathione (GSH) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) can scavenge these radicals, thereby diminishing the efficacy of CDT. In this study, we propose a programmable synergistic therapeutic strategy that depletes GSH during chemotherapy (CT) and subsequently increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to achieve high-potency CDT. We constructed a Cu-Q@Co/ZIF-8 (CQZ) composite nanoplatform by encapsulating cobalt-doped ZIF-8 (Co/ZIF-8) with copper-quercetin (Cu-Q, CQ). The construction of nanoplatform significantly enhanced the water solubility of Co/ZIF-8 and CQ. When the nanoplatform reached the tumor site, the TME triggered the release of quercetin and Cu 2+ from CQ, thus enabling quercetin-based chemotherapy and Cu 2+ -mediated GSH depletion while generating Cu + . Subsequently, the Co 2+ released from Co/ZIF-8 acted with Cu + to catalyze a Fenton-like reaction with endogenous H 2 O 2 , efficiently producing toxic ∙OH radicals for CDT. Throughout the treatment process, Cu 2+ was preferentially released in response to the TME to consume GSH, not only generating Fenton-active Cu + but also preventing the GSH-mediated scavenging of ∙OH. This procedural mechanism has substantially enhanced the therapeutic efficacy of CDT following CT.

The development of intelligent coatings shows great potential for sustained corrosion protection. In this study, ZIF-8 was combined with graphene oxide (GO) and the corrosion inhibitor 1,10-Phenanthroline (Phen) to prepare PZ 8 G nanomaterials. These nanoparticles were introduced into a dispersed carbon nanotube enhanced water-borne acrylic epoxy resin to fabricate a corrosion inhibition coating (PZ 8 G/DCE), followed by electrodeposition of a polypyrrole (PPY) outer film to construct a PZ 8 G/DCE/P bilayer architecture with enhanced anti-corrosion performance. The PZ 8 G composites exhibited improved compatibility with acrylic epoxy resin compared to pristine ZIF-8, and the PZ 8 G/DCE/P bilayer coating presented satisfactory adhesion. This coating effectively enhanced the corrosion resistance of 304SS in both acidic and saline environments, increasing the corrosion potential by 0.36 V and 0.3 V, respectively. The coating demonstrated significant efficacy in acidic conditions, in which the EIS tests confirmed stable protection over 30d of immersion, while SEM characterization after 60d of immersion revealed it maintained structural integrity with minimal morphological changes. Furthermore, the self-healing capability of PZ 8 G/DCE/P coating system was verified through EIS measurements on artificial scratches combined with elemental analysis, which demonstrated the active release of inhibitors and the formation of protective composites at damaged region. The synergistic combination of PPY, which exhibits dual functionality as both anodic protection and physical barrier, with actively corrosion inhibiting PZ 8 G nanofillers, effectively provided a sustained active-passive corrosion protection for stainless steel under aggressive conditions. This work suggests a promising strategy for designing smart anti-corrosion materials.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fabrics are highly flammable and generate substantial smoke emissions, necessitating effective flame-retardant treatments. In this study, we developed an environmentally friendly strategy to construct a metal-organic framework (MOF)-assisted phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic flame-retardant system on PET fabric. This was achieved through in situ growth of ZIF-8 via a solvent-saving hot-pressing method, followed by 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO) incorporation using a water-saving supercritical CO 2 technique. Comprehensive characterizations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrated that ZIF-8 enhances the immobilization and stabilization of DOPO on PET through chemical interactions, resulting in a durable flame-retardant material. The treated fabric demonstrated significantly improved fire safety compared to pristine PET, with a higher limiting oxygen index (LOI, from 21% to 31.6%), reduced peak heat release (20.2%), suppressed peak smoke production (54.1%), and lower average CO yield (79.6% reduction). A dual-phase flame-retardant mechanism (condensed and gas phases) was proposed based on systematic analyses. Importantly, the modified fabric retained its mechanical properties and breathability while acquiring additional functionalities including UV resistance and antibacterial properties. This work presents a sustainable and efficient strategy for designing high-performance, fire-safe textiles via MOF assisted synergistic engineering.

Developing efficient and recyclable adsorbent materials is crucial for the environmental remediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In this study, magnetic bimetallic carbon nanotube materials (BM-CNTs) derived from zinc-cobalt bimetallic ZIFs (BMZIFs) were fabricated and employed for the adsorptive removal of PAHs. Characterization results of BM-CNTs revealed a porous network structure formed by intertwined carbon nanotubes with uniform dispersion of Co and Zn metal particles. The adsorptive removal efficiency of the magnetic BM-CNTs was more than 84.5 % for all four PAHs (C 0 = 10 mg/L), and the adsorption experimental data are well described by the Langmuir model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Additionally, the maximum adsorption capacities of BM-CNTs for Phenanthrene (PHE), Pyrene (PYR), Benzo[k]fluoranthene (BKF), and Benzo[a]anthracene (BAP) are 71.3 mg/g, 74.4 mg/g, 157.7 mg/g, and 179.7 mg/g, respectively, and the thermodynamic analysis revealed that the PAHs adsorption was an exothermic (ΔH˚<0), spontaneous (ΔG˚<0), and entropically unfavorable (ΔS˚<0) process. Moreover, the influence of different anions, cations, and sample pH on adsorption efficiency was not obvious. This research constructed a magnetic bimetallic ZIF derived carbon nanotubes for PAHs adsorption and offers a promising removal methods for environmental remediation.

Wood-derived carbon is an ideal material for self-supporting electrode supercapacitors based on its anisotropic porous structure and excellent electrical conductivity from natural wood. However, the low specific surface area and space utilization limit the development of performance. This study reports efficient Polydopamine(PDA)/ Metal-organic frameworks (MOF)/Wood supercapacitor electrodes with a sandwich channel structure and a one-step composite method. The assembled supercapacitor electrodes exhibit effect energy density (0.40 mW h cm −2 ), power density (1000 mW cm −2 ), and recycling stability(10,000 cycles - 81.53 %). The fabrication of these sandwich channel structures with 2-methylimidazole zinc salt (ZIF-8) derived carbon increased the specific surface area, which is not only simple and precisely controllable, but SCnitrogen doping was introduced to improve the electrochemical performance by PDA. The one-step composite method could link the wood-derived carbon framework and ZIF-8 interface by PDA enhancement. This study promises prospects for developing high-performance supercapacitors to ensure clean fuel and green energy storage devices.

Polyethylene glycol terephthalate (PET) is widely utilized in industrial applications and everyday life. However, its extensive use has led to substantial environmental challenges. This study presents a highly active and selective [DBU][m-cresol] proton-ionic liquid (PIL)-immobilized ZIF-8 catalyst for PET resource utilization. Using just 15 mg of the ZIF-8@[DBU][m-cresol]-2 catalyst, PET degradation reached 97.72 %, while BHET conversion achieved 86.95 % within 60 min. The Zn 2+ ions in the catalyst decrease the electron density of the m-cresol carbocation, thus improving the nucleophilic substitution capability of [DBU][m-cresol]. The influence of catalyst dosage, the ethylene glycol-to-PET ratio, and temperature on degradation and conversion was investigated. After five cycles, the catalyst retained a degradation efficiency of 77.71%. In practical applications, testing on three commercial PET materials demonstrated degradation efficiencies exceeding 90%. DFT calculations and LC-MS analysis indicate that hydrogen bonding among ethylene glycol (EG), PET, and ZIF-8@[DBU][m-cresol] enhances PET’s electrophilicity, while Zn 2+ decreases the electron density of carbocations, thereby facilitating PET degradation. This work highlights the potential of proton-based ionic liquid-supported catalysts for efficiently converting PET waste into valuable resources.

Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks are a class of metal organic frameworks which are very attractive for their pore structures. However, their pore size and the BET surface would shrink when they underwent heat treatment at high temperature. On the other hand, liquid metal in MOFs might flow through the pores and prevent the shrinkage when pyrolysis. As is known that metallic Sn is liquid when the temperature is above 232 °C, flowing Sn might support and maintain the porous structure of MOFs during the pyrolysis. In this work, porous Sn/C-ZnO core-shell structures were prepared as anodes for LIBs via a two-step method. Firstly, SnO 2 particles were encapsulated in a ZIF-8 layer with different thickness. Then Sn/C-ZnO was generated in inert atmosphere at 700 °C. A Sn/C-ZnO composite, with 11.2% of Sn and 21.0% of ZnO in content, had a BET surface of 32.9 m 2 g -1 . Another Sn/C-ZnO composite, with 55.1% of Sn and 1.8% of ZnO in content, had a larger BET surface of 297 m 2 g -1 . Then the two composites were tested as anodes for LIBs. Although the BET surface of the former was significantly less than that of the latter before cycling and the content of Sn in the former was also much lower than that of the latter, the discharge capacity of the former after 50 cycles was 515.6 mAh g -1 at 100 mA g -1 in the potential of 0.01~3.00 V, which was slightly higher than that of the latter.

Two-dimensional nanomaterials have the characteristics of high aspect ratio and high space utilization, which has huge potential advantages in gas separation. In this work, g-C 3 N 4 two-dimensional nanosheets with sieving pore structure were selected as templates and combined with ZIF-90 to construct a 0-dimensional/2-dimensional composite material ZIF-90@C 3 N 4 (ZCN). The complete two-dimensional g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets were stripped under acid etching conditions at 25 °C. ZIF-90 was distributed in an orderly manner on the two-dimensional nanosheets, and the nanosheets were spread out due to the growth of ZIF-90 to provide more free volume. The gas permeation experiment proved that the ZCN has a better CO 2 /N 2 separation performance. The ZCN/Pebax mixed matrix membrane (MMM) with the optimized 8.0 wt% ZCN loading showed an improved CO 2 permeability of 110.5 Barrer and a CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of 84.4, surpassing the Robeson upper bound (2008). The results demonstrated that the designed composite filler with 2D nanosheets is an effective strategy to enhance gas separation performance of MMMs and verified the application potential in gas purification industry.

Fabrication of simple and efficient adsorbents is greatly vital to satisfy the requirements of removal of tellurium in wastewater treatment , yet remains challenging. Here, a facile and cost-effective strategy to develop ZIF-L coated self-crosslinking cellulose membrane (ZIF-L/SC membrane) for tellurium adsorption was presented. In-situ vertical growth of ZIF-L nanoplates with functional properties on membrane substrate is an available strategy, effectively remedying deficiency of pure nanosized sorbent in agglomeration problem and unhandy recovery. The SC membrane formed by strong hydrogen bonding among cellulose fibers is an excellent substrate, due to the favorable mechanical strength and abundant hydroxyl groups. The as-prepared ZIF-L/SC membrane shows advantageous morphology of large contact surface, fine thermal stability and eligible mechanical strength. The adsorption performance and possible mechanism of ZIF-L/SC membrane for Te (IV) were investigated by diverse characterization methods, showing admirable adsorption effect. Furthermore, the ZIF-L/SC membrane has excellent antibacterial properties, thus it is expected to deal with membrane fouling caused by microorganism breeding. Therefore, the bifunctional ZIF-L/SC membrane with excellent antibacterial activity is anticipated to be a promising candidate for efficient tellurium adsorbents, and simultaneously have potential in various fields in the future.

A meticulously engineered bacillus-shaped CoNi ZIF-MXene@MWCNT carbon cloth (CC) composite was synthesized through a one-step immersion method, which was employed in the development of a novel electrochemical (EC) sensor for the sensitive detection of salidroside (SAL) in Rhodiola. Characterization of the CoNi ZIF-MXene@MWCNT CC was conducted using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and EC methods. The bacillus-shaped composite showcased an exceptionally high rate of active site exposure, superior conductivity, and electrocatalytic efficiency, attributed to the synergistic effects of the constituent materials. The remarkable electrocatalytic capability facilitated the redox reaction of SAL, marked by a significant enhancement in the current signal. This led to a concentration-dependent response enabling the quantitative detection of SAL. The mechanism of the redox reaction might be the oxidation of the phenolic hydroxyl group of SAL. Demonstrating high sensitivity, selectivity, and stability, this novel bacillus-shaped composite-based EC sensor achieved a low detection limit (LOD) of 0.0958 µ g/mL for SAL, within an effective linear range of 0.5–500 µg/mL. Importantly, the EC sensor proved to be adept at practical detection of SAL in Rhodiola samples with complex matrices, and the salidroside content of Rhodiola crenulata was much higher than that of Rhodiola rosea , indicating that Rhodiola crenulata may have a higher medicinal value, offering a promising avenue for rapid and sensitive detection of SAL.

CO 2 separation performance of polymer membranes can be significantly enhanced by selecting porous fillers with high CO 2 affinity. Ionic liquids incorporation has been recognized as an effective strategy for improving the separation ability of pristine porous fillers. However, the influence of the specific functional groups of ILs in IL@MOF composites on separation performance of MMMs still remains unclear. Herein, we designed three microenvironment-tuned IL@ZIF-8 composites in which the three ILs contain different functional groups (-CH 3, –SO 3 H, and –NH 2 ). Molecular simulation results showed that the NH 2 -IL@ZIF-8 has a commendable CO 2 adsorption capacity and CO 2 /CH 4 adsorptive selectivity, and the results were well confirmed by the following experimental data. More importantly, the prepared NH 2 -IL@ZIF-8 based MMMs also exhibit superior CO 2 separation performance among the three IL@ZIF-8 based MMMs owning to its high CO 2 affinity. Thus, this work can provide guidance for designing IL@MOF composites for MMMs fabrication towards gas separation, and the research mode combining molecular simulation prediction and experimental verification can afford valuable reference for material development in membrane separation field.

The diffusion process is the rate-limiting step for n -butanol recovery from diluted aqueous solution, which can be improved by incorporating hydrophobic nanoparticle into the polymer matrix. However, the micropore structure of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) in the commonly applied ZIF-8-based mixed matrix membrane (MMM) could hardly meet the diffusion demand of the penetrant molecules. Herein, ZIF-8-derived nanoporous carbon (ZNC) with larger pore diameter and pore volume was prepared to replace ZIF-8 in conventional MMM in order to improve the diffusion process. An increase of 68.7% in n -butanol permeability of ZNC/PDMS MMM with 3 wt% of particle loading was obtained compared with ZIF-8/PDMS MMM. Coupled with the good compatibility between ZNC and PDMS , ZNC was homogeneously dispersed in PDMS matrix. As a result, a n -butanol permeability of 109,583 Barrer and a n -butanol/water selectivity of 4.47 were obtained for n -butanol recovery from 1.5 wt% n -butanol/water solution at 55 °C, which were increased by 145.4% and 17.6%, respectively, compared with the pure PDMS membrane. Overall, the ZNC-filled PDMS membrane shows promising in effective separation of n -butanol in realistic applications.
