Long-term exposure to low concentration indoor VOCs of acetaldehyde (CH 3 CHO) is harmful to human health. Thus, a novel isogenous heterojunction CeO 2 /Ce-MOF photocatalyst is synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method for the effective elimination of CH 3 CHO in this work. This CeO 2 /Ce-MOF photocatalyst performs well in CH 3 CHO removal and achieves an apparent quantum efficiency of 7.15% at 420 nm, which presents ≈6.7 and 3.4 times superior to those generated by CeO 2 and Ce-MOF, respectively. The enhanced efficiency is due to two main aspects including i) an effective photocarrier separation ability and the prolonged reaction lifetime of excitons play crucial roles and ii) the formation of an internal electric field (IEF) is sufficient to overcome the considerable exciton binding energy, and increases the exciton dissociation efficiency by up to 50.4%. Moreover, the reasonable pathways and mechanisms of CH 3 CHO degradation are determined by in situ DRIFTS analysis and simulated DFT calculations. Those results demonstrated that S-scheme heterojunction successfully increases the efficiency of harmful volatile organic compounds elimination, and it offers essential guidance for designing rare earth-based MOF photocatalysts.

Lithium-sulfur battery is desirable for the future potential electrochemical energy storage device with advantages of high theoretical energy density , low cost and environmental friendliness. However, some natural hindrances, particularly fast capacity degradation resulting from the migration of dissolved polysulfide intermediates, remain to be significant challenges prior to the practical applications. In this work, a composite interlayer of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) which are enriched by Co-based metal organic frameworks (ZIF-67) growth in-situ is exploited. Notably, physical blocking and chemical trapping abilities are obtained synergistically from the ZIF/CNFs interlayer, which enables to restrain the dissolution of polysulfides and alleviate shuttle effect. Moreover, the three-dimensional fiber networks provide an interconnected conductive framework between each ZIF microreactor to promote fast electron transfer during cycling, thus contributing to excellent rate and cycling performance. As a result, Li-S cells with ZIF/CNFs interlayer show a high specific capacity of 1334 mAh g −1 at 1 C with an excellent cycling stability over 300 cycles. Besides, this scalable and affordable electrospinning fabrication method provides a promising approach for the design of MOFs-derived carbon materials for high performance Li-S batteries.

Developing bifunctional catalysts toward urea oxidation and hydrogen evolution is a huge challenge. In this study, novel MOF-derived nickel nitride on nickel foam catalysts were successfully synthesized at different temperatures (300, 350, 400 °C) (denoted as C-T, T = 300, 350, 400). C-350 was demonstrated to be a highly active and durable 3D catalyst toward urea oxidation reaction (UOR), with a required potential of 1.337 V at 10 mA/cm2. At the same time, C-350 has higher catalytic performance toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) than other materials with a low overpotential of 47 mV at 10 mA/cm2. Furthermore, its two-electrode alkaline electrolyzer only needs a voltage of 1.503 V to obtain 100 mA/cm2, which is 0.160 V lower than that of pure water splitting. Also, the current density can be maintained for at least 24 h, showing its potential for practical applications.

In this work, Cu/N-C derived from MOF composites were synthesized and characterized by SEM, XRD, FTIR, XPS and EIS, which was modified on the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to construct a novel electrochemical sensor (Cu/N-C/GCE). Due to the good electrical conductivity and abundant catalytic active sites of Cu/N-C, Cu/N-C/GCE exhibited excellent electrocatalytic performance for catechol (CC) and hydroquinone (HQ) with the oxidation peak potential difference of 112 mV. The proposed sensor could realize the simultaneous detection of CC and HQ successfully. Under optimal conditions, the redox peak currents of both CC and HQ have good linear relationship with their concentrations in the ranges of 0.50–100.00 μM and 0.50–150.00 μM with the detection limits for CC and HQ of 0.12 μM and 0.09 μM, respectively. At the same time, the sensor exhibits good stability, reproducibility and selectivity in the analysis of practical samples.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as porous materials have been widely used in electrochemical sensing field. Unfortunately, their low electrical conductivity and poor stability in the aqueous solution limit their application. To overcome these shortcomings, in this study, a novel reduced graphene oxide-encapsulated Ce-MOF (RGO@Ce-MOF) composite was synthesized by using a simple and green method. Ce-MOF and GO were firstly casted onto glassy carbon electrode, respectively, and then GO was reduced to RGO through electrochemical reduction strategy. The proposed encapsulated structure of RGO@Ce-MOF effectively improved the stability of Ce-MOF by preventing decomposition of MOF in solution. The combination of RGO and Ce-MOF can also significantly promote the conductivity of composite. Then, the obtained RGO@Ce-MOF composite was utilized as electrode material for the detection of dichlorophen (Dcp), a halogenated phenolic intermediate for synthesis of pesticide. The electrochemical properties of the proposed sensor were investigated by electrochemical techniques in detail. Benefiting from the synergy between Ce-MOF and RGO, the RGO@Ce-MOF can be used to detect Dcp with a wide linear range from 0.02 μM to 10 μM and a low detection limit of 0.007 μM (S/N = 3). Furthermore, the RGO@Ce-MOF electrode showed acceptable reproducibility and good selectivity. This method was applied to detect Dcp in the real samples with satisfying results.

Graphical A kind of ionic liquid, namely deep eutectic solvents, are introduced to load on the surface of porous MOF-808 core as membranes to construct porous core-membrane microstructured nanomaterials for CO 2 capture at room temperature with the sorption mechanism coupling of diffusion, physisorption, and chemisorption. It shows excellent development potential for future application in CO 2 capture. A series of porous core-membrane microstructured nanomaterials, constructed of a deep eutectic solvent (DES) membrane and porous MOF-808 core via liquid surface tensions and electrostatic interactions, are introduced for carbon dioxide capture with the sorption mechanism coupling diffusion, physisorption, and chemisorption. MOF-808 as the porous core considerably improves the diffusion interactions for DES membranes, hence significantly enhancing the sorption performance of DESs. Although the DES consisted by monoethanolamine and tetrapropylammonium chloride (MEA-TPAC-7) has the highest sorption capacity among all DESs, it is only 4.39 mmol g −1 at 2.4 bar and further attenuates by fastidious diffusion interactions when increasing viscosity or dose. The sorption capacities of DES@MOF-120 are 5.18 mmol g −1 at 3.0 bar and 4.78 mmol g −1 at 2.4 bar without apparent sorption hysteresis in pressure swing sorption, which are substantially improved contrasted to MEA-TPAC-7. The sorption isotherms are reconstructed via Sips models considering surface heterogeneity with regression correlation coefficients over 0.9454 to forecast maximum sorption capacity over 6.33 mmol g −1 .

Conversion of biomass-derived furfural platform compound to value-added tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (THFL) molecule is a sustainable route, and an efficient nonnoble metallic catalyst is a key factor for this reaction. In this work, Ni@C@CNT composite as a highly effective catalyst for hydrogenation of furfural to tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol was synthesized by one-step pyrolysis of Ni-centered metal organic framework (Ni-MOF) doping with carbon nanotube (CNT). For comparison, Ni@C catalyst derived directly from Ni-MOF was also synthesized. The characterization results show that the doping of CNT promotes high dispersion of active sites and formation of Ni 3 C phase which has Pt-like catalytic activity. Therefore, the obtained Ni@C@CNT exhibited excellent activity in furfural hydrogenation (99.1% furfural conversion and 94.7% THFL yield at 120°C, 4 h, 4-MPa initial hydrogen pressure). Ni@C@CNT also shows good stability in reuse test. Current work presents a facile method for preparation of nonnoble metallic catalysts with high efficiency.

There has been growing attention in the combination of metal oxide nanoparticles with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for the synergistically intensified catalytic activity . Herein, functional Fe-MOF@Mn 2 O 3 composites were synthesized to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for 4-Cholophenol (4-CP) degradation via a hydrothermal and calcination method. Under the reaction parameters of 2 mM PMS, 0.2 g/L catalyst dosage, and pH 7.0, 91.4% of 4-CP (10 mg/L) could effectively be degraded within 60 min (2.2-fold increase in reaction rate constant compared with pure Mn 2 O 3 ). The excellent degradation performance of Fe-MOF@Mn 2 O 3 /PMS system was attributed to the surface hydroxyl and synergistic effect between iron and manganese. Quenching reaction and EPR analysis revealed both sulfate (•SO 4 - ) and hydroxyl radicals (•OH) were responsible for 4-CP degradation. The Fe-MOF@Mn 2 O 3 composite exhibited intensive catalytic capability as well as electron transfer efficiency according to the electrochemical measurements. Meanwhile, the possible degradation pathways were proposed by analyzing intermediates via LC-MS detection. The results indicates that the Fe-MOF@Mn 2 O 3 /PMS system is effective and adaptable for the treatment of 4-CP in different water conditions.

A Michelson interferometric carbon monoxide (CO) fiber-optic sensor based on Co/Ni-MOF-74 is proposed and fabricated. The bimetallic-ion-coordination MOFs material Co/Ni-MOF-74 was prepared by solvothermal method. Through XRD and XPS characterizations, the results show that Co/Ni-MOF-74 and Ni-MOF-74 have the same crystal structure. Co/Ni-MOF-74 has a good adsorption effect on CO, and it is integrated into the optical fiber sensing structure for CO detection. In the CO concentration range of 0–35 ppm, the sensitivity and linearity are 0.022 35 dB/ppm and 0.999 36, respectively. The detection limit of the sensor is about 1.990 46 ppm. The presented fiber-optic sensor has excellent selectivity, resistance to temperature interference and good time stability, and it is expected to be applied to the detection of trace CO.

Construction of heterostructure engineered to modulate the electronic structure and enhance conductivity is an effective approach to enhance the performance of materials. The construction of heterostructure electrocatalysts with efficient catalytic activity by combining 2D nanosheet metal organic frameworks (MOFs) with other earth-rich transition metal oxide materials is a compelling study. Herein, a novel (Fe 2 O 3 ) 0.36 @Ni-MOF heterostructure nanosheets has been synthesized by a rapid one-pot hydrothermal procedure as an efficient OER catalyst. (Fe 2 O 3 ) 0.36 @Ni-MOF exhibited prominent OER property with the overpotential of 230 mV at10 mA cm −2 , a small Tafel slope of 66.7 mV dec −1 and ignorable activity decay after 20 h long-term test at 10 mA cm −2 . The excellent properties of (Fe 2 O 3 ) 0.36 @Ni-MOF nanocomposite could be attribute to the vast amounts of active sites exposed by the nanosheets and ultrasmall size nanoparticles, and the electronic interaction between Fe 2 O 3 and Ni-MOF in the heterostructure. This work presents an attractive tactics for the preparation of heterostructure catalysts with good OER catalytic performance.

Aqueous Zinc-ion batteries (ZIB) are attracting immense attention because of their merits of excellent safety and quite cheap properties compared with lithium-ion batteries (LIB). Manganese oxide is one of the most important cathode materials of ZIB. In this paper, α-Mn 2 O 3 used as cathode of ZIB is synthesized via Metal-Organic Framework (MOF)-derived method, which delivers a high specific capacity of 225 mAh g −1 at 0.05 A g −1 and 92.7 mAh g −1 after 1700 cycles at 2 A g −1 . The charge storage mechanism of α-Mn 2 O 3 cathode is found to greatly depend on the discharge current density. At lower current density discharging, the H + and Zn 2+ are successively intercalated into the α-Mn 2 O 3 before and after the “turning point” of discharge voltage and their discharging products present obviously different morphologies changing from flower-like to large plate-like products. At a higher current density, the low-voltage plateau after the turning point disappears due to the decrease of amount of Zn 2+ intercalation and the H + intercalation is dominated in α-Mn 2 O 3 . This study provides significant understanding for future design and research of high-performance Mn-based cathodes of ZIB.
