The misuse of ciprofloxacin (CIP) poses significant risks to our ecosystems by causing serious environmental pollution and the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, which requires effective remediation technologies. Herein, we developed a composite material (CMC/CoNiFe-LDH/ZIF-8, abbreviated as CLZ) of loading layered double hydroxide (CoNiFe-LDH) decorating zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) on the carboxymethylcellulose sodium (CMC) aerogel as an adsorbent for CIP removal. The CMC aerogel in the composite provided a porous structure as the growth template of CoNiFe-LDH, while CoNiFe-LDH provided growing points for ZIF-8, and ZIF-8 could be used as a carrier for loading CIP, resulting in a high adsorption property of CLZ with optimized mass ratios of CMC/CoNiFe-LDH aerogels and ZIF-8 at 5:1 (denoted as CLZ-1). The adsorption process of CLZ-1 followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model, and the maximum capacity of CLZ-1 to adsorb CIP was 1397.5 mg·g −1 . The results of characterization, data fitting and parameter revealed that strong hydrogen bonding, complexation of unsaturated metals, electrostatic interaction, and π–π stacking between CLZ-1 and CIP were the main mechanisms for CIP adsorption. In addition, the CLZ-1 was successfully used as a solid phase extraction material combined with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the detection of CIP. Meanwhile, the CLZ-1 adsorbed CIP showed excellent antibacterial activity. Hence, CLZ-1 demonstrated great potential and promising practicability in separation and removal of antibiotic contaminants.

Defects in nanocarbon materials can trigger their intriguing electrochemical properties and potential applications, but their synthesis is challenging. Herein, we report the synthesis of ultrathin nitrogen-doped carbon nanosheets with intrinsic defects through the pyrolysis of ZIF-8 with linker vacancies. The as-synthesized electrocatalyst exhibits excellent oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity with an onset potential and half-wave potential of 1.05 and 0.873 V vs. RHE , respectively, outperforming the reported metal-free ORR electrocatalysts. It also shows a commercial Pt/C-comparable performance in zinc–air battery with a power density of 154.4 mW cm −2 . Characterization and DFT calculation results suggest the adjacent sp 3 -carbon in carbon pentagon can significantly strengthen the adsorption and activation of oxygen molecules on sp 2 -carbon, hence the potential determining step is altered and ORR overpotential is lowered. This work highlights a promising green synthesis strategy of MOF-derived metal-free nanocarbon materials for wide application in advanced energy technologies .

The public health and water ecosystems are affected by industrial wastewater, resulting in water pollution including heavy metal ions and organic matter, so that adsorbents with multiple adsorption effects are developed to achieve efficient adsorption. In this work, the porous zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) was assembled onto cellulose nanofiber (CNF)/poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/aramid nanofiber (ANF) composites and the ZIF-8@CNF/PVA/ANF (ZIF-8@CPA) composite aerogel was designed and fabricated. The composite aerogel has good physical properties and optimal adsorption performance assembled with 20% ZIF-8 content. The ZIF8-20@CPA composite aerogel has high porosity of about 99.62%; the specific surface area is 120.53 m2/g, and pore size is as low as 11.82 μm with a lower volume shrinkage of 1.31%. The adsorption capacity of Cr6+ and rhodamine B about lightweight ZIF8-20@CPA composite aerogels reached 231 mg/g and 201 mg/g, respectively. Due to the 3D porous structure, electrostatic interaction, and ion synergism generated by its assembly with ZIF-8, the composite aerogels have good adsorption performance for heavy metal ions and conform to the relationship of a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Thus, this study suggests a route to fulfill the multiple adsorbents.

The overuse of norfloxacin (NOR) has attracted wide attention because of the persistence and bio-accumulate in ecosystems and the negative impacts on human health. To solve the environmental issue, BiOI/TiO 2 p-n heterojunctions have been developed and decorated with a porous ZIF-8 to obtain novel hollow BiOI/TiO 2 /ZIF-8 heterojunctions, which were further characterized by XRD, SEM, HRTEM , XPS , BET, UV–vis DRS, photoluminescence , ESR , photocurrent and EIS analyses. The BiOI/TiO 2 /ZIF-8 heterojunctions exhibited evidently improved photocatalytic performance compared with pristine BiOI , TiO 2 and BiOI/TiO 2 composites under visible light irradiation. ZIF-8 plays a key role in both the enhancement of adsorption and the photocatalytic activity in NOR removal. ·O 2 - and ·OH radicals were the two dominating active species in the photocatalytic process according to the trapping experiments. In 2-BTZ system, large specific surface area, highly effective charge carrier migration with inhibiting recombination, more negative CB and positive VB to generate more active ·O 2 - and ·OH species resulted in superior photocatalytic activity. This work provides a new idea to design a kind of photocatalytic heterostructure with more active species for potential application in the field of environmental treatment.

Cellulose fiber (CelF) is a biodegradable and renewable material with excellent performance but negligible triboelectric polarizability. Methods to enhance and rationally tune the triboelectric properties of CelF are needed to further its application for energy harvesting. In this work, methyl-orange-doped polypyrrole (MO-PPy) was in situ coated on CelF as a mediating layer to promote the growth of metal–organic framework ZIF-8 and to construct a cellulose-based triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG). The results showed that a small amount of MO-PPy generated in situ significantly promoted the growth of ZIF-8 on CelF, and the ZIF-8 deposition ratio was able to increase from 7.8% (ZIF-8/CelF) to 31.8% (ZIF-8/MO-PPy@CelF). ZIF-8/MO-PPy@CelF remained electrically conductive and became triboelectrically positive, and the triboelectricity’s positivity was improved with the increase in the ZIF-8 deposition ratio. The cellulose-based TENG constructed with ZIF-8/MO-PPy@CelF (31.8% ZIF-8 deposition ratio) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) could generate a transfer charge of 47.4 nC, open-circuit voltage of 129 V and short-circuit current of 6.8 μA—about 4 times higher than those of ZIF-8/CelF (7.8% ZIF-8 deposition ratio)—and had excellent cycling stability (open-circuit voltage remained almost constant after 10,000 cycles). MO-PPy not only greatly facilitated the growth of ZIF-8 on CelF, but also acted as an electrode active phase for TENG. The novel TENG based on ZIF-8/MO-PPy@CelF composite has cheerful prospects in many applications, such as self-powered supercapacitors, sensors and monitors, smart pianos, ping-pong tables, floor mats, etc.Keywords:cellulose fiber;polypyrrole;methyl orange;ZIF-8;mediating layer;triboelectric nanogenerator

Kaempferol (KA), an important polyphenolic compound, is able to combat a variety of inflammatory diseases. Here, a ZnWO 4 / porous nanocarbon based electrochemical sensor has been constructed to detect KA for the first time. Innovatively, ZnWO 4 has been synthesized by pyrolysis using ZIF-8 as a zinc source, while porous nanocarbon was introduced. The nanocomposites have been characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy and demonstrated that Acidified ZnWO 4 /porous nanocarbon has been successfully prepared. Notably, the excellent catalytic properties of ZnWO 4 and the great enrichment ability and conductivity of porous nanocarbon greatly enhanced the detection performance of the sensor for KA with a linear range of 0.009–0.7 μM and a LOD of 2.03 nM. In addition, the sensor has obtained satisfactory results for the detection of KA in actual natural samples (broccoli and kaempferia powder). The reaction sites and redox mechanism of KA were shown by density functional theory. Finally, the sensor is highly sensitive and stable, making it a novel detection method with extremely high potential applications.

The catalytic enhancement of counter electrode materials is of an essential move for the overall evolution of QDSSCs. While the commonly used Cu 2 S/Cu counter electrode is easy to be eroded off by sulfur electrolyte, resulting in photoanode pollution. Herein, rough polyhedron Cu/Co@NCF composite is smoothly prepared via hydrothermal and synchronous doping method to replace Cu 2 S/Cu application. With the ZIF-67 as carbon source and morphology support, Cu and Co nanoparticles (NPs) are uniformly embedded in the carbon polyhedron without agglomeration, while the doping of nitrogen makes the composites have better porous structure. Combining the superior catalytic from Cu and Co particles with the electrical conductivity and stability from the carbon frame, the Cu/Co@NCF composite as QDSSCs counter electrode achieves an excellent photoelectric conversion effect (6.66%), close to that of Cu 2 S/Cu (7.29%). With stable and excellent counter electrode performance, Cu/Co@NCF composite unquestionably has the potential to be an alternative material for the CE application of QDSSCs.

Single-atom Cu and N co-coordinated porous carbon (Cu-N-C) was synthesized by hydrothermal-calcination using zinc zeolite imidazole frameworks (ZIF-8) as the precursor. The catalyst showed excellent adsorption and catalytic ability due to the ideally-dispersed single atomic copper sites and the unique nitrogen-doped porous carbon. The complete removal of sulfamethoxazole (SMX, 18 mg/L) could be achieved within 40 min of pre-adsorption and 25 min of oxidative degradation in the present of peroxymonosulfate (PMS). The adsorption capacity of Cu-N-C (0.2 g/L) was evaluated to be 58.69 mg/g. The apparent degradation rate constant ( k ) of SMX on Cu-N-C was 0.155 min -1 , which was 14.1 times faster than that on N-C (0.011 min -1 ). From the activation mechanism, it was found that CuN units acted as the main active sites in Cu-N-C for PMS activation . EPR analysis and quenching experiments verified that the reactive oxygen species (ROSs) of SO 4 · - and 1 O 2 were involved in the decomposition and mineralization of SMX. This work provides a new perspective for the development of Fenton-like single-atom catalysts.

In this work, flower-like molybdenum disulfide was constructed on the surface of ZIF-8-derived nitrogen-doped dodecahedral carbon (ZNC) for the electrocatalytic degradation of phenol. The flower-like nanostructure of MoS 2 @ZNC contributed to the exposure of more edge-active sites of MoS 2 . At the same time, Mo 4+ and Mo 6+ co-existed in MoS 2 @ZNC, which promoted the generation of H 2 O 2 and •OH, and improved the catalytic activity of composite materials. In addition, electrochemical performance analysis showed that MoS 2 loaded on the surface of ZNC significantly improved the redox capacity of the material, and the composite ratio of MoS 2 and ZNC affected the structure and properties of MoS 2 @ZNC composites. Moreover, the electrochemical performance of prepared MoS 2 @ZNC was evaluated by the generation of hydroxyl (•OH) and the degradation efficiency of phenol. The results showed that MoS 2 @ZNC-2 had an excellent phenol degradation efficiency (98.8%) and COD removal efficiency (86.8%) within 120 min. Furthermore, MoS 2 @ZNC cathode still maintained good performance after being experimented with 20 times, indicated the excellent stability of MoS 2 @ZNC.

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.

In order to enhance the adsorption and photocatalytic property of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) melt-blown film, PPS melt-blown film was modified by loading ZIF-8 nanomaterial on the surface of the film via a simple solvothermal water method, the PPS melt-blown film was impregnated in advance. Film performance was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD). Results from FTIR and XRD showed that ZIF-8 was introduced into the modified PPS film successfully. The modified PPS film was endowed with excellent adsorption and photocatalytic compared with the original PPS by the result of enhanced dye removal. The removal rate of methyl blue (MB) by PPS/ZIF-8 film within the range of pH = 3–11 of the environmental solution were more than 80%, up to 99.1%. The dye removal rate still remained 80% after 5 repeat cycles, showed that the modified film has good stability.

In this work, a carbon-doped Co 3 S 4 /CoSO 4 /MnO catalyst (C@CoSOMn) was prepared in this work by using ZIF-67 as the template. The prepared catalyst was used to degrade levofloxacin (LEVO) by activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS). The optimized catalyst could degrade 97.73 % LEVO within 20 min with a rate constant of 0.294 min −1 . The combination of water-soluble CoSO 4 and Co 3 S 4 made more Co sites accessible to PMS for lasting decomposition to produce active species. Moreover, Mn species with low redox potential could promote the regeneration of Co 3+ and the activation of PMS. The doped carbon could facilitate the transfer of electron. Superoxide radicals (⋅O 2 − ), bulk and surface hydroxyl radicals (•OH), surface sulfate radicals (SO 4 •− ), and electron transfer process, especially the singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) were involved in the LEVO degradation. This study sheds light on the synergism between the Co-based sulfide and the Mn oxide in the activation process of PMS, and might prompt the development of other ZIF-67-derived hybrid materials for environmental remediation.
