A new strategy has been developed for the encapsulation of the phosphotungstic heteropoly acid (H 3 PW 12 O 40 denoted as PTA) into zeolite imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) cage and the PTA@ZIF-67(ec) catalysts with different PTA content were prepared. The structure of the catalysts was characterized by XRD , BET, SEM, FT-IR, ICP-AES and TG. The catalytic activity and recovery properties of the catalysts for the Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole with benzoyl chloride were evaluated. The results showed that 14.6–31.7 wt% PTA were encapsulated in the ZIF-67 cage. The PTA@ZIF-67(ec) catalysts had good catalytic activity for Friedel-Crafts acylation. The conversion of anisole can reach ~100% and the selectivity of the production can reach ~94% over 26.5 wt% PTA@ZIF-67(ec) catalyst under the reaction condition of 120 °C and 6 h. After reaction, the catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture by the centrifugation. The recovered catalyst can be reused five times and the selectivity can be kept over 90%.

In this work, we fabricated a new type of Pd/SiO2@ZIF-8 core–shell catalyst composed of a Pd/SiO2 microsphere as the core and a ZIF-8 membrane as the shell. The preparation procedure involves first loading Pd nanoparticles onto nonporous SiO2 microspheres to obtain the Pd/SiO2 core and then coating a perfect layer of ZIF-8 shell on the core by electrostatic induction to form a Pd/SiO2@ZIF-8 core–shell structure. It is crucial that the modification of the Pd/SiO2 core with polyelectrolyte was employed to improve the charge distribution of the core surface and preferably adsorb Zn2+ cations in the synthesis solution so as to assist the formation of a continuous ZIF-8 shell. The compactness and thickness of the shell were optimized by increasing the number of cycles of ZIF-8 growth. The hydrogenations of alkenes with different molecular sizes showed that the Pd/SiO2@ZIF-8 catalysts can provide excellent product selectivity and antipoisoning and antileaching properties for the hydrogenations of alkenes.

MOFs-based yolk-shell composites are newly-presented but promising catalysts in the area of catalysis. In this work, a kind of unique rattle-type Pd/ZnO@hollow ZIF-8 yolk-shell catalyst is developed via a ZnO-template approach, in which there exist two processes of both ZnO-induced ZIF-8 formation and ZnO dissolution. Of prime importance is that ZnO was selected as the sacrificial template since it can not only be etched in the solution of ligands but also assist the formation of compact ZIF-8 shell by providing nucleation sites via linker activation. It is also proposed that sufficient amount of Zn(NO 3 ) 2 ·6H 2 O and 2-methylimidazole added in the growth solution of ZIF-8 should accelerate the outward growth of ZIF-8 layer as well as dissolution of ZnO. This way, the final construction of Pd/ZnO@hollow ZIF-8 yolk-shell materials is achieved. Compared to the Pd/ZnO counterparts, Pd/ZnO@hollow ZIF-8 rattle-type catalysts demonstrate a promoted behavior in terms of size-selectivity for the liquid hydrogenations of alkenes due to the outer ZIF-8 shell acting as a molecular sieve. It can also protect the catalytically active Pd NPs from poisoning and leaching, giving rise to an excellent stability. Moreover, the yolk-shell catalysts manifest a better activity beyond their core-shell counterparts since the presented interior hollow space between core and shell is likely to expose more active surfaces to reactants.

Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF) are attracting considerable attention for their applications in adsorbents/separation as well as catalysis. In this article, we proposed a simple strategy to fabricate semiconductor–ZIF core–shell nanocomposites, which exhibited remarkable coherent function for adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants. The current nanocomposites were composed of ZnO/CdS and ZIF-8, where spindle-like ZnO nanoparticles not only acted as the seeding material but also worked as the Zn2+ source for the formation of ZIF-8. The as-prepared ZnO/CdS@ZIF-8 core–shell nanocomposites displayed distinct photocatalytic activity for methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RhB) owing to the unique pore structure and thus absorption effect of the ZIF-8 shell. To this end, the ZnO/CdS@ZIF-8 core–shell nanocomposites could find important applications in photocatalytic degradation of pollutants.

In this study, we developed a novel magnetic composite of walnut shell biochar (WSB) and modified it with ZIF-7 for the purpose of removing Co 2+ ions. We conducted a comprehensive evaluation of its performance in Co 2+ removal, considering various factors such as contact time, temperature, adsorbent dose, pH, and initial Co 2+ concentration. Utilizing response surface methodology-central composite design (RSM-CCD), we examined the interactions between these variables. The specific surface area and magnetic saturation value of the WSB/MnFe 2 O 4 /ZIF-7 composite were determined as 170.560 m 2 .g −1 and 23.469 emu.g −1 , respectively. ANOVA analysis indicated that our model effectively captures the interactions between variables, with a high R 2 value of 0.9982, explaining 99.82 % of the experimental data. Optimal conditions for maximum Co 2+ adsorption efficiency (99.05 %) were identified as follows: a contact time of 44.82 min, pH of 6.04, adsorbent dose of 0.947 mg.L -1 , temperature of 25.55 °C, and Co 2+ concentration of 11.13 mg.g −1 . Kinetic studies revealed that the Pseudo 2nd order kinetic model provided the best fit to the experimental data. The negative entropy parameter indicated a decrease in disorderliness during the adsorption process, while the exothermic nature of adsorption was confirmed by enthalpy values of −92.751 and −40.511 kJ.mol −1 for WSB/MnFe 2 O 4 /ZIF-7 and WSB, respectively. Furthermore, the Langmuir isotherm model demonstrated excellent fitting to the isotherm results, suggesting the dominance of homogeneous surfaces in adsorption. The maximum adsorption capacities for Co 2+ using WSB/MnFe 2 O 4 /ZIF-7 and WSB were determined to be 29.26 and 22.39 mg.g −1 , respectively. The WSB/MnFe 2 O 4 /ZIF-7 magnetic composite demonstrates promising potential for efficiently removing Co 2+ from both natural water sources and industrial wastewater, highlighting its versatility and effectiveness in environmental remediation applications.

The presence of hazardous substance in river water poses a severe threat to both the ecological environment and human health. Therefore, designing and preparing highly sensitive SERS platform for monitoring the hazardous substance is of great significance. Herein, the Ag nanoflowers (NFs)@ZIF-8 core-shell nanocomposite was synthesized and utilized as SERS substrate. Using crystal violet as model molecule, this substrate achieved a detection limit of 10 −10 M and superior uniformity with relative standard deviation of less than 15 %, and the enhancement factor (EF) for crystal violet was calculated about 4.37×10 6 . Besides, the SERS signal only showed a slight attenuation after 3 months storage. As a demonstration, the SERS platform achieved sensitive detection of two hazardous substances thiram and methylene blue with detection limits of 10 −7 M and 10 −8 M. And the recoveries of SERS detection for thiram and methylene blue in river water were between 70 % and 182 %. The electromagnetic enhancement provided by Ag NFs and the enriching effect of ZIF-8 shell collectively contribute to the excellent performance of the Ag NFs@ZIF-8 SERS platform. This work delivers a promising strategy for constructing hybrid SERS platform for highly sensitive detection.

The development of multifunctional materials capable of serving both as high-efficiency adsorbents and high-performance supercapacitors is a critical challenge for environmental and energy applications. In this study, a novel zeolitic imidazole framework-8/mycelial pellet (ZIF-8/MP) composite was successfully synthesized using a simple in-situ growth and staged adsorption process. The MP with its three-dimensional porous structure, served as a scaffold, facilitating the uniform distribution of ZIF-8 across the porous carbon matrix. The resulting ZIF-8 in the ZIF-8/MP composite demonstrated a remarkable adsorption capacity for Congo red (CR), with a maximum capacity of 1428.57 mg/g. The adsorption mechanism was attributed to electrostatic interactions, zinc coordination, hydrogen bonding, and π–π conjugation, as confirmed by FTIR, XPS, and DFT analyses. After adsorption, the carbonized ZIF-8/MP composite demonstrated outstanding supercapacitor performance, achieving a specific capacitance of 113.4 F/g at 1 A/g, and maintaining 93 % capacitance retention after 5000 charge/discharge cycles. Additionally, the ZIF-8/MP composite effectively reduced the toxicity of CR, as demonstrated by phytotoxicity assays, underscoring its potential for environmental remediation. This innovative approach provides an eco-friendly, easily separable, efficient, and practical multifunctional material for transforming hazardous waste into valuable resources for environmental detoxification and energy storage applications.

The combination of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) can significantly improve their electrochemical performance. However, in most cases, chemical pre-treatment of MWCNTs is inevitable, which may compromise the ideal performance of the final composites. Herein, via a noncovalent functionalization method, PMo 12 @ZIF-67 was in situ grown on the surfaces of MWCNTs with the assistance of a new dispersant containing two triethylenetetramine (TETA) segments. In order to enhance the coordination of Co metal ions with the surface of MWCNTs, phenolic hydroxyl groups were incorporated into the dispersant through reaction with gallic acid (GA). After annealing, homogeneous CNT/Co 6 Mo 6 C 2 /Co composites were obtained, and they showed excellent performance on oxygen evolution reaction (OER). At a current density of 10 mA cm −2 , the lowest overpotential is 263 mV, of which the performance is superior to that achieved by other in situ growth methods. The uniform distribution of coordination sites and subsequent in situ growth of MOFs on MWCNTs improved the electrical conductivity of the derivatives, thereby enhanced the utilization of catalytic active sites. This study presents a novel approach for synthesizing carbon-doped electrocatalytic materials, which demonstrates significant potential in various electrochemical applications.

Due to the misuse and overuse of the antibiotic tetracycline (TC), as well as its refractory degradability, it has become a stubborn environmental contaminant. In this study, a self-standing polyacrylonitrile-based ZIF-67@CNT/ACF aligned anodic membrane was fabricated by innovatively incorporating ZIF-67@CNT nanoparticles into an aligned carbon nanofiber (ACF) membrane to treat the TC. The flow-through nanoporous construction of the ZIF-67@CNT/ACF membrane reactor can compress the diffusion boundary layer on the electrode surface to enhance mass transfer under microscopic laminar flow, which can further enhance the degradation rate. In addition, the enhanced degradation performance also benefited from the significant electrooxidation capacity of the ZIF-67@CNT/ACF membrane. At the optimal electrocatalytic condition of 3.0 V applied potential and pH 6, the degradation rate reached 81% in 1 h for an initial TC concentration of 10 mg l−1. The refractory and highly toxic TC was electrochemically degraded into small non-toxic molecules. Our results indicate that electrocatalytic TC degradation can be enhanced by ZIF-67@CNT/ACF membrane.

The separation of mono- and di-branched C6 alkane isomers is one of the most challenging industrial processes for the production of high-octane gasoline components. In this work, ZIF-8 with dual ligands of imidazole (IM) and 2-methylimidazole (2-MIM), named as DLA-ZIF-8-IM, was synthesized by the method of delayed linker addition, and the microstructure of DLA-ZIF-8-IM was analyzed. Adsorption thermodynamic, kinetic and separation properties of C6 alkane isomers were investigated. The results show that compared with SALE-ZIF-8-IM prepared by the solvent-assisted ligand exchange method, the synthesis method of DLA-ZIF-8-IM is simpler and the BET specific surface area and pore volume (2136 m 2 ·g −1 and 0.72 cm 3 ·g −1 ) of DLA-ZIF-8-IM are increased by 21 % and 14 %, which is more conducive to adsorption and diffusion of 3-methylpentane (3MP) on DLA-ZIF-8-IM. The equilibrium adsorption capacity of 3MP on DLA-ZIF-8-IM reaches up to 2.89 mmol·g −1 , which is 1.1 times than that on SALE-ZIF-8-IM, and the ratio of diffusion time constants between 3MP and 2,3-dimethylbutane (23DMB) on DLA-ZIF-8-IM (5.13) is 2.2 times than that on SALE-ZIF-8-IM. Moreover, at 30℃, the breakthrough adsorption capacity of 3MP on DLA-ZIF-8-IM is 1.46 mmol·g −1 , which is 1.6 times more than that of SALE-ZIF-8-IM (0.90 mmol·g −1 ), while the breakthrough adsorption capacity of 23DMB is basically the same. The separation factor between 3MP and 23DMB on DLA-ZIF-8-IM is 2.96 via the synergy of thermodynamic and kinetic mechanism and the dynamic adsorption capacity of 3MP reaches 1.46 mmol·g −1 . DLA-ZIF-8-IM achieves complete separation of C6 alkane mixtures for obtaining single high-purity product. This work provides a novel synthesis strategy for developing C6 alkane (clear) adsorption separation materials by modulating microporous structures of dual-ligand MOFs.

In order to efficiently keep activities of enzymes and enhance stabilities of enzymes, intercalation of enzymes into core of Au nanorod and MOFs shell has been designed. Vice versa, enzymes immobilized on the surface of Au nanorod can guide MOFs shell growth via biomineralization interplay accompany with surfactant directed growth of MOFs on an anisotropic plasmonic template, leading to formation of a porous layer-by-layer nanostructure. Due to incorporation of stimuli-responsive enzyme and MOFs skeleton, loaded anticancer drug can be efficiently released under endogenous stimuli. In-situ SERS and UV-Vis analysis indicate that porous Au nanorod@enzymes@ZIF-8 nanocomposites can perform superior drug releasing behavior compared to Au nanorod@ZIF-8. Hence, the porous Au nanorod@enzymes@ZIF-8 nanocomposites can give more efficient enzymatic biocascade reaction in the nanoreactor in contrast with Au nanorod@ZIF-8@enzymes. Based on porous characteristics of ZIF-8 shell in the Au nanorod@enzymes@ZIF-8 nanocomposites, the nanocomposites can cause complete apoptosis of HeLa cell via enzymatic biocascade reaction and loaded anticancer drug. It can be expected that the unique biological-inorganic-organic hybridized nanosystem would be extensively applied in quantitative evaluation of multi-modal tumor therapy.

Fenton-like reactions with Fe-based metal–organic framework (MOF) catalysts have been extensively explored in the field of environmental remediation. However, easy precipitation of Fe2+/Fe3+ and the production of sludge under basic conditions caused catalyst loss and greatly limited their large-scale application in industry. The development of an Fe-free Fenton-like reaction is of extreme importance and remains in its infant stage. Herein, a series of Fe-free dual MOF nanoparticles (HKUST-1/ZIF-67-X) were fabricated by in situ coating of ZIF-67 on HKUST-1 and were systematically analyzed by various characterization techniques, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms. Subsequently, these materials were applied in catalyzing methylene blue (MB) degradation. The effects of several operation parameters, i.e., pH, H2O2 dosage, catalyst dosage, and reaction temperature, on MB degradation were investigated. It was unveiled that HKUST-1/ZIF-67-7% exhibited an outstanding catalytic activity without the production of any sludge, which could reach as high as 93.29% MB degradation efficiency within 40 min. This was attributed to the unique core–satellite histoarchitecture of HKUST-1/ZIF-67-7% and the synergistic effect between HKUST-1 and ZIF-67. The HKUST-1/ZIF-67-7% composite still achieved up to 80.17% MB degradation efficiency at the fifth catalysis cycle. Importantly, HKUST-1/ZIF-67-7% exhibited significant catalytic efficiency under a wide pH range (4.2–10.1) and top catalytic efficiency at the near neutral pH value. The low cost, environment benignancy, satisfactory degradation efficiency, wide pH application range, and excellent reusability emphasize its great application potential in Fenton-like degradation of pollutants. This contribution could provide a paradigm investigation for designing non-iron-based MOF catalysts to solve the increasingly pressing pollution issues.
