Hydroformylation of olefins is one of the most important industrial processes for aldehyde production. Therein, the leaching of active metals for heterogeneous catalysts is an important issue in the hydroformylation reaction, particularly for higher olefins to produce higher alcohols. Here, different Rh/ZnO catalysts with diverse ZnO as a support were investigated and a home-made ZnO50 support was selected to prepare the Rh/ZnO50@ZIF-8 core–shell structure catalyst, which was synthesized by the growth of ZIF-8 with ZnO50 as the sacrificed template to afford Zn source. Compared with the Rh/ZnO50 catalyst, the Rh/ZnO50@ZIF-8 catalyst demonstrated a better cyclic stability in the hydroformylation of 1-dodecene. Combining the experiment and characterization results, it was concluded that the ZIF-8 shell on the Rh/ZnO50 catalyst effectively prevented the leaching of metal Rh into the reaction solution. Moreover, the Rh/ZnO50@ZIF-8 catalyst exhibited good universality for other higher olefins. This work provides a useful guideline for immobilizing the active species in heterogeneous catalysts for the hydroformylation reaction.

Carbon-based materials have attracted considerable attention in the field of photothermal catalysis owing to their exceptional chemical stability, wide-range light harvesting and high photothermal conversion efficiency. In this work, ZIF-67 was pyrolyzed at different temperatures to produce Co-N-C materials with varying graphitization degrees, revealing that lower graphitization leads to superior photothermal performance. Herein, they are employed as heat-core material and integrated with ZnIn 2 S 4 (ZIS) to form composites via a water-bath method for photothermally promoted photocatalytic H 2 production. Experimental resutls reveals that the low-graphitized Co-N-C features abundant structural defects to construct highly active surface sites and exhibits a strong localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect that efficiently converts photons into phonons, thereby elevating the local surface temperature of the catalyst. Meanwhile, the interfacial interaction formed between the low-graphitized Co-N-C and ZIS in Co-N-C@ZIS composite effectively promotes the separation and migration of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, thereby enhancing the performance of the photothermal-assisted photocatalytic H 2 generation with achieving an H 2 generation rate of 14.09 mmol g −1 h −1 under full-spectrum illumination, 12.04-fold higher than pure ZIS (1.17 mmol g −1 h −1 ). The work provides valuable insights and strategies for significantly enhancing photothermally promoted photocatalytic hydrogen evolution through the utilization of carbon-based heat-core materials.

Multifunctional cotton fabric holds significant promise for domestic and healthcare applications. A key challenge remains developing sustainable fabrication routes for mechanically durable cotton textiles integrating intrinsic and photothermally amplified antibacterial functions. Herein, we prepared ZIF-8/67-loaded Ag nanoparticles on cotton fabric using in-situ reduction technology (ZIF-8/67-Ag@CCT). Subsequent dip-coating with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) produced ZIF-8/67-Ag@CCT@PDMS, enhancing superhydrophobicity. The modified fabric exhibited exceptional superhydrophobicity (water contact angle: 148.55 ± 0.21°) and UV-blocking capabilities (UPF value: 186). The surface demonstrated excellent self-cleaning properties against dyes and maintained robust stability after 30 washing cycles and immersion in acidic/alkaline solutions (>97.0% antibacterial efficacy retention). Critically, the fabric exhibited excellent biocompatibility, as validated by human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived skin organoid assays showing no adverse effects on cell proliferation, apoptosis, or survival rates. Antibacterial effects originated from the penetration of AgNPs and Ag⁺/Zn²⁺/Co²⁺ ions into bacterial structures, disrupting metabolism via reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. The multifunctional ZIF-8/67-Ag@CCT@PDMS fabric presents a highly promising solution for durable antibacterial medical textiles, offering combined antibacterial activity, exceptional stability, self-cleaning, UV resistance, and biocompatibility.

Highly efficient carbon dioxide (CO2) conversion over novel photothermal catalysts featuring a wide light absorption range to meet the energy and chemical demands is an urgent challenge. To this end, an etching-coordination strategy is designed to synthesize novel metal–organic framework/metal–tannic acid (TA) composites for photodriven CO2 cycloaddition. ZIF-8 can be partially removed by TA to yield a yolk–shell structure, facilitating multiple reflections of light and thereby improving light utilization and photothermal conversion. With the aid of coordination between the Fe3+ and –OH groups, the formation of Fe–TA networks on the surface of ZIF-8 significantly enhances its photoresponsive range. Notably, under full-spectrum illumination of 550 mW cm−2 for 10 h, ZIF-8/Fe–TA-10 achieves a catalytic yield of 96.3% with >99.9% selectivity for the coupling of CO2 and epichlorohydrin. Furthermore, the calculation results suggest that CO2 cycloaddition can be accelerated with a significantly reduced activation energy (19.4 kJ mol−1) in the presence of ZIF-8/Fe–TA-10. On the basis of the experimental results, a cooperative reaction mechanism coupling photothermal catalysis and photocatalysis is proposed. This work provides an available strategy for the future synthesis of MOF-based photocatalysts for catalytic and other applications.

Doping metal-organic frameworks into the casting solution is a common method for preparing mixed matrix membranes. However, metal-organic frameworks are prone to agglomeration and poor dispersion. This can lead to a decline in membrane performance. To address these issues, this work proposed “co-solvent synthesis and in-situ doping” strategy. In this strategy, N,N-Dimethylformamide, which was also the solvent in the casting solution, was chosen as the synthesis carrier for ZIF-8-NH 2 nanoparticles. The prepared ZIF-8-NH 2 suspension could be directly doped into the casting solution in situ. This process eliminated the drying and pre-dispersion steps. Research showed that with 0.5 wt% ZIF-8-NH 2 , the membrane's hydrophilicity significantly improved, with the water contact angle of 72.5°. The pure water flux reached 229 Lm −2 h −1 . Moreover, the retention rates of Congo Red and NaCl were 97.3 % and 3.5 % respectively, demonstrating excellent dye/salt separation. In particular, the flux recovery rate was maintained at more than 91 %, demonstrating good anti-fouling performance. This work provides a promising technical strategy for the efficient treatment of textile dyeing wastewater and resource recovery.

Lipase immobilization plays a pivotal role in enhancing enzyme stability, reusability, and practical applicability in ligand fishing, a technique used to identify bioactive compounds from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). However, conventional methods often lead to significant activity loss due to suffering from enzyme leakage, conformational distortion, and mass transfer resistance. In this study, we present a dynamic defect-engineering (DDE) strategy within zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) to overcome these limitations. The DDE process enables adaptive formation of transport channels driven by enzyme–framework interactions, facilitating the migration of lipase from surface adsorption to intracrystalline encapsulation. Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis confirmed successful encapsulation, showing a reduced specific surface area of 565.1 m 2 /g for lipase@ZIF-8, indicative of enzyme incorporation within the defect-engineered framework. This structural optimization significantly improved biocatalytic performance, achieving 82 % activity retention and 65 % immobilization yield, compared to 44 % activity retention in conventional in situ encapsulation. Utilizing the preserved catalytic activity, we established a lipase-based ligand fishing platform, which successfully identified 20 potential inhibitors (10 anthraquinones and 10 flavonoids) from Cassiae Semen and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium using HPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS analysis. Overall, this work demonstrates the effectiveness of the DDE strategy in enhancing lipase immobilization within ZIF-8, offering a robust and efficient platform for the high-throughput screening of lipase inhibitors from natural products and advancing the application of enzyme-based ligand fishing in TCM research.

To address the dual challenges of controlled drug delivery and microenvironment modulation in repairing osteoporotic bone defects, we developed a multifunctional poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA)-based composite fibrous scaffold (PLLA/PDA/ZIF-8@Qu). The scaffold was fabricated via electrospinning, followed by in situ polydopamine (PDA) polymerization to robustly immobilize ZIF-8 nanocarriers loaded with quercetin (Qu) on the fiber surface. The mussel-inspired PDA coating served as an adhesive interlayer between ZIF-8 and PLLA. Additionally, it provided near-infrared (NIR) responsiveness and surface functionalization capability. Under osteoporotic acidic conditions (pH 5.0–6.0), the scaffold exhibited pH-triggered release behavior, ZIF-8 degradation accelerated Zn 2+ release, and cumulative Qu release reached 90 %. Zn 2+ contributed to antibacterial activity, while the PDA coating enabled NIR-driven photothermal/photodynamic synergy, achieving 100 % inhibition against both E. coliand S. aureus. Quercetin (Qu) exerted antioxidant effects via the Nrf2/ARE pathway and promoted macrophage polarization toward the M2 phenotype, thereby ameliorating the local inflammatory microenvironment. In vitro , the scaffold enhanced osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, as indicated by a 2.3-fold increase in alkaline phosphatase activity, a 1.85-fold increase in mineralized nodule formation, and upregulated Runx2 expression. In a rat femoral defect model, the scaffold group at 8 weeks post-implantation showed increased bone mineral density (BMD) from 0.454 to 0.935 g/cm 3 and trabecular number (Tb.N) from 0.694 to 0.923 mm −1 , with the defect largely filled by newly formed bone. Collectively, these results demonstrate that the PDA-enabled, ZIF-8/Qu-integrated PLLA scaffold couples pH-responsive release with antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and pro-osteogenic functions, supporting its potential as a bone repair material responsive to pathological microenvironments.

Biofouling has been a persistent challenge for offshore equipment, significantly affecting its longevity. In this study, two-dimensional (2D) ZIF-7 nanosheets were synthesized via a hydrothermal method and modified with polydopamine (PDA) to enhance their dispersibility. A multifunctional ZIF-7@PDA-CeO2 nanocomposite was then prepared through in situ growth, where CeO2 was uniformly and securely anchored onto the ZIF-7@PDA surface, facilitated by the large specific surface area and its electrostatic interactions between ZIF-7@PDA. UV–vis absorption spectra demonstrate that the ZIF-7@PDA-CeO2 exhibit haloperoxidase-like (HPO-like) catalytic activity, efficiently catalyzing the oxidation of NH4Br and H2O2 to generate HBrO. Antibacterial assays indicate that ZIF-7@PDA-CeO2 possesses strong bactericidal activity and effectively inhibits biofilm formation. Furthermore, ZIF-7@PDA-CeO2 are used as fillers to prepare ZIF-7@PDA-CeO2/EP composite coating, and the antibacterial and long-term corrosion resistance is also explored. We believe this work offers a sustainable solution to the challenges of biofouling and corrosion in marine environments.

The rational design and construction of the efficient and robust non-noble metal bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts is of critical significance due to the attention given to reversible metal–air batteries. In this paper, we report novel two-dimensional “senbei”-like Co9S8/CeO2/Co-NC nitrogen-doped carbon nanosheets (Co9S8/CeO2/Co-NC) derived from a unique 2D Co/Ce bimetallic ZIF. The phase transition from 3D spherical Co-ZIF to 2D Co/Ce-ZIF was achieved through the introduction of Ce ions. Profiting from the successful construction of the unique Co9S8/CeO2 heterostructure and the synergetic effect of two components, the as-prepared Co9S8/CeO2/Co-NC exhibited excellent electro-performance in both the oxygen evolution reaction (Ej=10 = 1.60 V) and oxygen reduction reaction (E1/2 = 0.875 V). Furthermore, when used as a bifunctional air electrode for Zn-air batteries, Co9S8/CeO2/Co-NC reached a high peak power density of ≈164.24 mW cm−2 at a high current density of ≈351 mA cm−2 and displayed an outstanding cycling stability of more than 668 h at 5 mA cm−2. This research provides new guidelines for preparing hybrid materials from cobalt-based sulfide species and CeO2 for electrocatalysis and energy storage or other fields.

Polyethersulfone (PES) mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) incorporating a co-nanofiller of ZIF-8 and poly(ionic liquid) were constructed via a facile one-pot microemulsion strategy, aiming to increase the flux and anti-fouling properties of the original PES membranes. First, ZIF-8 nanoparticles were synthetized in the reverse microemulsion using 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium (BmimOTF) ionic liquid as a surfactant and 1-vinyl-3-ethylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (VeimBF 4 ) polymerizable ionic liquid as an oil phase. Subsequently, the oil phase VeimBF 4 in the reverse microemulsion was polymerized, and a latex containing ZIF-8 nanoparticles and poly(VeimBF 4 ) was formed. Finally, MMMs were constructed by blending the latex with PES via the phase-inversion method. The microstructures of ZIF-8 and the MMMs were characterized by TEM, SEM, FTIR, XRD, and XPS analysis. Results showed that the mean size of ZIF-8 are small (10 ∼ 35 nm). Addition of the poly(VeimBF 4 ) and ZIF-8 nanoparticles increased the pore size and hydrophilicity of MMMs. The maximum water flux was 105 L m −2 ·h −1 ·bar −1 and 90% flux recovery were obtained after five cycles of filtration, and little decrease of WCA appeared on all MMMs after the repeated experiment, indicated the good stability of MMMs. Compared with PES ultrafiltration membrane, pure water flux and flux recovery rate of the MMMs increased by 15 and 2.8 times respectively.

The fabricated intercalated structure composed of a Co-based zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) and expanded graphite (EG) has been prepared using a facile and simple one-pot hydrothermal reaction. This framework was used to detect heavy metal ions (HMIs) via a square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) method for the first time. Here, the composite material is useful for the selective electrochemical detection of nanomolar Cd 2+ , Pb 2+ , Cu 2+ and Hg 2+ in aqueous solutions simultaneously or individually. The operational parameters such as pH, electrolyte, deposition potential, and deposition time were optimized to detect various HMIs. The electrochemical properties and applications of the modified electrode were also studied. The constructed electrochemical sensor displays good performance with a large electrochemically active surface areas, high sensitivity and low limit of detection (LOD). These impressive features originate from the synergistic effects of ZIF-67 and EG. This study proposes a new strategy for heavy metal ion detection using a novel morphology of a metal–organic framework (MOF) composite.

In this manuscript, a layer of 2-methylimidazole zinc salt (ZIF-8) membrane is deposited on the surface of glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) by reduction electrochemical method to obtain ZIF-8/Pt NPs/GCE, and then used for the detection of ascorbic acid (AA). The deposition of Pt NPs on the surface of GCE can not only guide the nucleation and growth of ZIF-8 membrane, but also exert a synergistic effect with it to enhance conductivity. For ZIF-8 membrane, it can increase the active area of electrode and thus improve the electrochemical response of the sensor for AA. Influence factors such as the deposition current density , deposition time on the surface morphology of the modified electrode, and the detection performance of the modified electrode during the electrochemical deposition of ZIF-8 membrane were explored to get the best performance. In addition, influence of conditions such as sweep speed and pH of the test solution on the electrochemical response signal of AA were also studied. Under the best conditions, the linear range of AA detection by this sensor is from 10 μmol L −1 to 2500 μmol L −1 , and the detection limit is 5.2 μmol L −1 based on S/N = 3. What's more, the modified electrode also has good anti-interference ability, reproducibility and stability, and has achieved satisfactory results in the detection for AA in real samples.
