CuO/ZIF-8 hybrid structure was obtained by adding the PVP-modified foliaceous CuO microstructures during the preparation of ZIF-8 polygon particles as a promising candidate for promoting the thermolysis process of NC. Thermoanalysis and pyrolysis kinetics based on the DSC and TG/DTG data revealed that the CuO/ZIF-8-NC decomposition had a weightlessness rate of 77.81%, heat release of 2882.5 J⋅g – 1 , the exothermic peak temperature of 471.25 K, and activation energy of 172.2 ± 16.0 kJ⋅mol – 1 , indicating that CuO/ZIF-8 has better catalytic activity than CuO and ZIF-8. The reconstructed n th -order kinetic models for NC/catalysis complexes were obtained using a modified fitting algorithm based on the results of isoconversional kinetic analysis, indicating that CuO/ZIF-8, CuO, and ZIF-8 had different catalytic effects on the thermolysis pathways of NC. This study suggests that CuO/ZIF-8 composite may have prospective application as a high potential and unique catalyst for accelerating NC pyrolysis.

Air and water pollution poses a serious threat to public health and the ecological environment worldwide. Particulate matter (PM) is the major air pollutant, and its primary sources are processes that require high temperatures, such as fossil fuel combustion and vehicle exhaust. PM0.3 can penetrate and seriously harm the bronchi of the lungs, but it is difficult to remove PM0.3 due to its small size. Therefore, PM0.3 air filters that are highly efficient and resistant to high temperatures must be developed. Polyimide (PI) is an excellent polymer with a high temperature resistance and a good mechanical property. Air filters made from PI nanofibers have a high PM removal efficiency and a low air flow resistance. Herein, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) was used to modify PI nanofibers to fabricate air filters with a high specific surface area and filtration efficiency. Compared with traditional PI membranes, the ZIF-8/PI multifunction nanofiber membranes achieved super-high filtration efficiency for ultrafine particles (PM0.3, 100%), and the pressure drop was only 63 Pa. The filtration mechanism of performance improvement caused by the introduction of ZIF-8/PI nanofiber membrane is explored. Moreover, the ZIF-8/PI nanofiber membranes exhibited excellent thermal stability (300 C) and efficient water–oil separation ability (99.85%).

The development of novel electrode materials for rapid and sensitive detection of neurotransmitters in the human body is of great significance for early disease diagnosis and personalized therapy. Herein, gold nanorod@zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (AuNR@ZIF-8) core–shell nanostructures were prepared by controlled encapsulation of gold nanorods within a ZIF-8 assembly. The designed AuNR@ZIF-8 nanostructures have uniform morphology, good dispersion, a large specific surface area, and an average size of roughly 175 nm. Compared with individual ZIF-8 and AuNR-modified electrodes, the obtained core–shell-structured AuNR@ZIF-8 nanocomposite structure-modified electrode shows excellent electrocatalytic performance in the determination of dopamine (DA) and serotonin (ST). The designed AuNR@ZIF-8 exhibited a wide linear range of 0.1–50 μM and low detection limit (LOD, 0.03 μM, S/N = 3) for the determination of DA, as well as a linear range of 0.1–25 μM and low LOD (0.007 μM, S/N = 3) for monitoring ST. The improved performance is attributed to the synergistic effect of the high conductivity of AuNRs and multiple catalytic sites of ZIF-8. The good electroanalytical ability of AuNR@ZIF-8 for detection of DA and ST can provide a guide to efficiently and rapidly monitor other neurotransmitters and construct novel electrochemical sensors.

Although molybdenum carbide (Mo x C) has emerged as an effective absorber of electromagnetic (EM) waves, its practical application is hindered by impedance mismatch and single loss mechanism. Herein, we developed a one-step method for creating NaCl template precursors assembled with ZIF-67 to produce porous multiple components of Mo x C composites. The Mo x C-Co/C composites exhibit a minimum reflection loss ( RL min ) of −59.69 dB with a bandwidth of 3.12 GHz at a thickness of 1.50 mm. The RL min reaches −71.39 dB with a bandwidth of 4.08 GHz at a thickness of 2.09 mm. The flower-like Mo x C-Co/C composites are capable of improving impedance matching and offering multiple loss mechanisms such as interfacial polarization, dipolar polarization, conductive loss and magnetic loss, resulting in enhanced EM wave absorption. Thus, our work featured a simple strategy to provide a unique insight into fabricating high-performance EM wave absorbers on molybdenum carbon basis.

With the ever-increasing of Rare Earth Elements (REEs) in various high technology applications, efficient recovery of REEs from liquid sources is becoming significantly important. In this work, ZIF-8 and UiO-66-NH 2 (U6N) are combined to form a 3D-agaric like core-shell structure hybrid material (U6N@ZIF-8-20), which exhibits good performance in REEs extraction. Due to the abundant adsorption sites of ZIF-8 and the excellent water stability of UiO-66-NH 2 , 3D-agaric like U6N@ZIF-8-20 showed quick adsorption rate (only 10 min to reach equilibrium), high adsorption capacity and selectivity for REEs from water compared to other reported adsorbents. Maximum adsorption capacities of U6N@ZIF-8-20 for neodymium (Nd(III)), europium (Eu(III)), gadolinium (Gd(III)) and erbium (Er(III)) achieved to 249.90, 295.28, 316.22 and 340.95 mg g -1 , respectively. U6N@ZIF-8-20 has superiority in selective adsorption of REEs from Cd(II), Zn(II), Cu(II), Mn(II) and Co(II) coexistence solution. The order of adsorption capacities for REEs is in agreement with the order of their electronegativity, ionic radius and charge density. Moreover, U6N@ZIF-8-20 showed better water stability and recyclability than single MOF. Overall, MOF@MOF hybrid material has efficiency in REEs separation from solutions, and has great advantage in the application of wastewater treating.

Due to their high global warming potential (GWP), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are included in various regulations as substances to be phased down. Gas separation membrane technology is expected to provide a better choice for refrigerant separation. In this study, a series of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)/ polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) were prepared for the separation of the refrigerant blend R454A (GWP = 145), which consists of a near-zeotropic difluoromethane (R32, GWP = 675) and 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (R1234yf, GWP = 4). ZIF-71-NH 2 was prepared for the first time by solvent-assisted ligand exchange (SALE), and then ZIF-71-NH 2 @ Ionic Liquid (IL) was prepared by embedding [C 2 mim][BF 4 ] into the pores of ZIF-71-NH 2 by capillary action method. The results showed that a hydrogen bonding network was established between the amino group and PDMS, which improved the interfacial compatibility, and reduced the pore size of ZIF-71, which contributed to an excellent gas separation performance of ZIF-71-NH 2 /PDMS MMMs. Restricting [C 2 mim][BF 4 ] to the ZIF-71-NH 2 pore can further reduce its pore size, and enhance R32/R1234yf separation performance due to the high selective solubility for R32 and R1234yf. The selectivity of 10 wt% ZIF-71-NH 2 /PDMS MMM is 25.6 % over that of 10 wt% ZIF-71/PDMS MMM. The selectivity of ZIF-71-NH 2 @IL/PDMS MMM is 38.3 % higher than that of ZIF-71-NH 2 /PDMS MMM. The ZIF-71-NH 2 /PDMS and ZIF-71-NH 2 @IL/PDMS MMMs exhibited the most excellent R32/R1234yf separation performance compared with the data currently published in the literature. Moreover, both designed MMMs demonstrated excellent resistance to ageing.

Elimination of As(III) from water has gotten more attention in comparison with As(V) due to its higher mobility and toxicity. In this work, we provide an effective method by integrating a cobalt-based metal–organic framework ZIF-67 and sulfite (S(IV)) to purify As(III)-laden water. The coupled oxidation with adsorption process (i.e., As(III) removal by ZIF-67/S(IV)) surpasses a divided preoxidation-adsorption process (i.e., As(V) removal by ZIF-67) for arsenic removal from the multi-component water containing various coexisting anions. Herein, the mechanism investigation corroborated that the S(IV) plays dual roles as a complexing ligand and a precursor of oxysulfur radicals. The enhanced As(III) removal is attributed to the S(IV) activation on the ZIF-67 surface via various reactions (e.g., surface complexation and intramolecular electron transfer), which not only generates SO 4 − radicals for rapid oxidation of As(III) to As(V), but also provides more adsorption sites for the immobilization of the oxidized product (As(V)). Furthermore, the combined process can rapidly treat arsenic in the realistic contaminated water from 242 to 7 μg L −1 within 15 min, directly meeting the provisional maximum contaminant level (<10 μg L −1 ). Overall, the proposed work may aid the rational design of S(IV) mediated oxidation-adsorption process to remove arsenic from a variety of contaminated waters.

Magnesium (Mg) alloys are susceptible to being attacked by corrosive ions in practical application environments, which limits their widespread application as the most promising engineering material. Herein, the superhydrophobic composite coating PVB/STA/ZIF-8@SiO 2 (PSZS) has been designed on the surface of Mg alloy by using a drop coating method to improve its corrosion resistance. In this study, we provide an approachable decoration strategy for hydrophobic and hierarchical modification of zeolite imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-8) with stearic acid (STA) and SiO 2 , and combined with polyvinyl butyral (PVB) to form a composite coating with excellent performance on the substrate surface. Notably, the PSZS composite coating exhibited superhydrophobic and the contact angle is greater than 150° after 300 cm of mechanical friction. The electrochemical testing of the PSZS composite coating indicated that it greatly protected the Mg alloys from corrosion. Moreover, the PSZS coating displayed highly effective corrosion resistance even after being immersed in 3.5 wt% NaCl aqueous solution for 7 days. Overall, the PSZS composite coating with the advantages of corrosion resistance, corrosion durability, superhydrophobic, abrasion resistance and simple preparation process broadens the horizons of Mg alloy corrosion resistance research.

Poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) is a promising material in oral repair and orthopedic implantation field due to its stability and proper elastic modulus. However, the lack of simple but effective strategy to functionalize PEEK and improve its antibacterial function hinders its further biomedical application. In this study, a sulfonated 3D porous PEEK is fabricated via sulfonation treatment, and then decorated with the in situ synthesized zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), in which Ag + ions were loaded with high loading capacity. Surface morphology, roughness, chemical composition and hydrophilicity of all the substrates were evaluated in details, suggesting Ag + ions loaded ZIF-8 on sulfonated PEEK (SPZA) was successfully prepared. The antibacterial activity of pristine and functionalized PEEK was evaluated by inhibition zone test, spread plate assay, growth curve, and morphology of bacteria. Experimental results demonstrate that the SPZA has effectively bacteriostatic performance against Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) and Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ). The excellent antimicrobial activity is attributed to the synergistic effect of Ag + and Zn 2+ ions released continuously from SPZA. This work provides a promising route for surface modification of PEEK and offer a potential candidate for biomedical implants.

In response to the limitations of slow reaction kinetics and elevated overpotentials in the OER, a novel core–shell structured electrocatalyst, termed NiCo–ZIF-67@Fe–Co–Ni-PBA or NiCo–ZIF@PBA, has been developed. This material demonstrates exceptional catalytic performance, exhibiting a minimal overpotential of approximately 188 mV at 10 mA cm–2, alongside a Tafel slope of 109 mV dec–1. Its robust stability in a 1 M KOH solution during the OER operations is noteworthy. Theoretical insights from DFT calculations reveal that a Co–O–Fe bridging configuration within NiCo–ZIF@PBA lowers the energy barrier for the reaction to 1.79 eV, a significant reduction from 2.67 eV observed with NiCo–ZIF-67. The improvement in electrochemical performance is primarily due to the emergence of Co3+ ions, which results from the efficient charge transfer occurring at the interface of the PBA and NiCo–ZIF core–shell structure. These findings suggest a promising strategy for designing advanced core–shell materials for electrocatalytic applications.

In recent years, oil pollution and industrial organic pollutants discharge has become a major problem affecting the ecological and human living environment, and the removal of oil in oily wastewater is increasingly urgent, especially for emulsion separation. Therefore, it is crucial to develop efficient oil–water separation membranes with low cost, green sustainability, and ease of operation. Herein, an ingenious spraying hybrid coatings containing ZIF-67 (Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-67) and polypyrrole (PPy) onto stainless steel mesh (SSM) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) was proposed. Through solidification and cooperative self-assembly to build rough structures, oil–water separation membranes ZIF-67@PPy SSM and ZIF-67@PPy PVDF have been obtained, which are hydrophilic and oleophilic in air and superoleophobic underwater. Depending on the scenario, on-demand separation of light oil/water mixtures and oil-in-water emulsions can be easily realized. The resulting oil–water separation membranes performed well that the separation efficiency of ZIF-67@PPy SSM can exceed 99.3% for all kinds of light oil/water mixtures, with a water flux of up to 66250 L/(m2·h), and maintains a separation efficiency of 98.5% even after 50 cycles. ZIF-67@PPy PVDF has a separation efficiency of more than 99.4% for various oil-in-water emulsions, and sustains outstanding performance despite undergoing 10 cycles. In addition, ZIF-67@PPy SSM and ZIF-67@PPy PVDF are sustainable in harsh environments, with good mechanical durability and some antimicrobial properties. The coatings prepared in this work that can be used for the separation of light oil/water mixtures and oil-in-water emulsions, and the proposed combination of multiple separation strategies are expected to improve the selectivity, improve efficiency, enhance contamination resistance, and increase accessibility of oil–water separation technologies.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering technique has become a powerful tool for detecting trace targets in the field of food-safety. However, it is a challenge to regulate the hot spots of the detection substrate and its interaction with target molecules for the enhancement of SERS activity. Herein, we reported the high performance SERS substrate based on Ag@ZIF-67 nanocomposite with sugar-coated haws like structure. It was found that the coverage of ZIF-67 particles on the surface of Ag nanowires can adjust the SERS ability of detection substrate. Compared with pure Ag nanowires, functionalized Ag nanowires exhibit outstanding SERS activity with good stability and uniformity. The detection limit of crystal violet and thiram can be as low as 10−10 M and 10−8 M, respectively. After 35 d, the SERS activity remains basically unchanged. Furthermore, it also has excellent SERS response to 5 \times 10−5 M thiram residues on the surface of vegetables. Such high SERS activity can be attributed to the enrichment and screening molecular effect of porous ZIF-67 nanoparticles, and the surface plasmon resonance effect of Ag nanowires. This work provides a simple strategy for the on-site detection of pesticide residues in the actual applications.
