Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted significant attention thanks to their excellent physical and chemical properties. Metal-organic frames are widely used in optics. For example, metal-organic frameworks can be used in fluorescent probes to detect and treat diseases, and can also be used to make solid-state light-emitting devices. Considering the high stability and easy synthesis of Zr-based UiO-66 MOF as well as the strong fluorescent emission of porphyrin molecules, the TCPP-incorporated UiO frameworks would inherit these advantages and exhibit intriguing optical performance. Therefore, in this paper, TCPP was doped into UiO-66, and the optical properties of the resulting MOF structure were observed. To obtain the optimal doping condition, three doping concentrations of TCPP were used. Besides the structural and morphological characterization by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, more attentions have paid on the optical testing based on absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, two-photon fluorescence spectroscopy and time-resolved spectroscopy. As a result, the TCPP-doped MOFs exhibited good fluorescence properties and satisfied our previous expectations of nonlinear optical properties and two-photon absorption. This work would pave a new way in constructing various MOFs-based solid-state devices with widespread optical applications.

Excessive phosphate in wastewater can cause eutrophication of water body, which will worsen the ecological environment and threaten human health and biological life safety. Adsorption of phosphate is the most effective way to remove phosphate, and efficient adsorbent is the key. Amorphous La(OH) 3 has been deemed as a potential phosphate adsorbent on account of high adsorption capacity and environmentally friendly property. However, it also shows some disadvantages such as easy agglomeration, poor water dispersion. In this study, UiO-66-NH 2 was used as carrier to load amorphous lanthanum hydroxide as an adsorbent for phosphate removal. The adsorbent (UiO-66-NH 2 @La(OH) 3 , ULCs) has good water dispersibility and it is easy to be separated and recovered. At the same time, the maximum phosphate adsorption capacity can reach 140.7 mg P/g. The adsorption process accords with pseudo second order kinetic model and Freundlich isotherm model. The thermodynamic results showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. In addition, in the presence of coexisting anions (such as Cl − , SO 4 2− , NO 3 − ), it also exhibited high selectivity and phosphate removal efficiency. Meanwhile, the adsorption capacity keeps at a high level in the range of pH 3–11. By the merit of above-mentioned properties, the prepared material is expected to be an ideal candidate for phosphate removal from contaminated water.

UiO-66-Z with uniform mesopores using 2-aminoterephthalic acid and terephthalic acid as mixed ligands was synthesized by hydrothermal method in this paper. Thermodynamic and dynamic properties of UiO-66-Z were discussed. Dynamic separation performance and adsorption selectivity of UiO-66-Z for the equimolar n-heptane/methylcyclohexane (nHEP/MCH) binary mixture were investigated. Results show that UiO-66-Z has complete tetrahedral cages with uniform mesopores of 38 Å. Adsorption rate constant of MCH on UiO-66-Z (14.5 × 10 −3 S −1 ) is twice that of UiO-66 (6.7 × 10 −3 S −1 ), while nHEP does not significantly change at 323K with the pressure of 0.05–0.1 kPa. Effective adsorption diffusion coefficient of nHEP and MCH on the UiO-66-Z is about 25 times higher than that on the UiO-66. Compared with UiO-66, the desorption activation energy (Ed 1 ) of the first desorption peak of nHEP and MCH on the UiO-66-Z is reduced by 53.75% and 76.66%, respectively. The separation selectivity of MCH to nHEP on the UiO-66-Z reaches up to 3.13 at 473 K. Results indicate that the introduction of mesopores in the UiO-66-Z can enhance mass transfer of nHEP and MCH in the pores, especially which is more obvious mass transfer effect for MCH with a larger molecular dynamics diameter under low partial pressure. The retention of most tetrahedral cages in the UiO-66-Z is conducive to improving its inverse shape separation selectivity for MCH/nHEP. Compared with UiO-66, nHEP and MCH have higher desorption efficiency on UiO-66-Z at the same temperature and time.

Abstract We report herein a versatile new approach for improving the photodegradation performance of UiO-66 by introducing 2-methylimidazole through a straightforward in situ one-pot solvothermal method. The resultant complex UiO-66-M-0.7 has demonstrated a reaction rate constant of 0.0183 min −1 in the photodegradation of rhodamine B under visible light, which is 69.4% higher than that with unmodulated UiO-66. Further investigation has confirmed that the improved activity can be attributed to enhanced adsorption of the dye by the photocatalyst during the adsorption–desorption equilibrium. The main active species involved in the photodegradation process have been identified as h + and O 2 − ·. In addition, the complex has shown ideal stability in recycling tests and excellent activity in the degradation of methylene blue. This study provides a novel perspective for the future design of various photocatalysts with superior performance. Graphic abstract 2-Methylimidazole-modulated UiO-66 exhibits increased catalytic performance in the photodegradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light because of enhanced adsorption of RhB on the catalyst during the adsorption-desorption equilibrium.

A new adsorbent was successfully fabricated by chemically linking pyromellitic acid onto a zirconium-based metal-organic framework composite for selective adsorption of Pd(II) from an aqueous solution. The adsorbent was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller equation and scanning electron microscope. The adsorption capacity, selectivity and repeatability of the adsorbent were tested by batch experiments. The optimum pH was 2.0, and the maximum adsorption capacity at room temperature was 226.1 mg/g. In the kinetic experiments, the adsorption process achieved equilibrium within 5 h and generally conformed to the quasi-second kinetics and Freundlich isotherm model. The N-H and O H groups on the adsorbent interacted with Pd(II) by electrostatic and coordination action. The adsorbent maintained excellent adsorption capacity after at least 5 cycles. At the same time, the selectivity of the adsorbent in aqueous solution is excellent from interfering ions. Therefore, the new adsorbent will have an obvious application prospect on the recovery of palladium.

Mixing a polymer matrix and nanofiller to prepare a mixed matrix membrane (MMM) is an effective method for enhancing gas separation performance. In this work, a unique UiO-66-decorated halloysite nanotubes composite material (UiO-66@HNT) was successfully synthesized via a solvothermal method and dispersed into the Pebax-1657 matrix to prepare MMMs for CO2/N2separation. A remarkable characteristic of this MMM was that the HNT lumen provided the highway for CO2diffusion due to the unique affinity of UiO-66 for CO2. Simultaneously, the close connection of the UiO-66 layer on the external surface of HNTs created relatively continuous pathways for gas permeation. A suite of microscopy, diffraction, and thermal techniques was used to characterize the morphology and structure of UiO-66@HNT and the membranes. As expected, the embedding UiO-66@HNT composite materials significantly improved the separation performances of the membranes. Impressively, the as-obtained membrane acquired a high CO2permeability of 119.08 Barrer and CO2/N2selectivity of 76.26. Additionally, the presence of UiO-66@HNT conferred good long-term stability and excellent interfacial compatibility on the MMMs. The results demonstrated that the composite filler with fast transport pathways designed in this study was an effective strategy to enhance gas separation performance of MMMs, verifying its application potential in the gas purification industry.Keywords:composite material;UiO-66;HNT;mixed matrix membrane;CO2/N2separation

Gaseous toluene, one of the volatile organic compounds, has aroused wide concerns in China due to its growing emissions and harmfulness. Herein, novel manganese decorated UIO-66 catalysts (Mn/UIO-66) were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis and applied to the vaporized hydrogen peroxide system for toluene removal. TEM, BET, XRD, ICP, and XPS were used to analyze the chemical and physical characteristics of Mn/UIO-66. A toluene removal efficiency of 82% with the 3-Mn/UIO-66 catalyst in the vaporized hydrogen peroxide system could achieved. The effects of different reaction conditions (reaction temperature, hydrogen peroxide concentration, and initial toluene concentration) on toluene removal were determined. The yield of hydroxyl radical in the Mn/UIO-66 catalyst combined with the hydrogen peroxide system was positively correlated with the Mn decorated ratio. Results suggested that the catalytic performance is related not only to the yield of hydroxyl radical but also to the catalyst specific surface. The intermediate products during toluene removal were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS), and the possible reaction pathway of toluene removal was proposed.

Photosensitization is a promising way to make UiO-66 visible light responsive. In this work, zirconium (Zr) precursors and synthetic methods (solvent-assisted or nonsolvent-assisted) were found to significantly affect the electric charge and the defect sites of UiO-66. UiO-66 with enhanced adsorption and photosensitized photocatalytic ability was then obtained. When ZrOCl2·8H2O was applied as Zr-precursor in a nonsolvent method, defect rich UiO-66 (UiO–OCl–N) was achieved with higher Cr(VI) adsorbing ability and improved photosensitized photocatalytic ability. Moreover, with the coexistence of Rhodamine B in Cr(VI) solution, photocatalytic performance of UiO-66 can be further enhanced.

UiO-66 metal-organic framework (MOF) was introduced as ketoprofen delivery system for treating osteoarthritis (OA), and two different kinds of NH 2 and NO 2 functional groups were grafted into the UiO-66 framework to investigate the effect of functional groups on the drug loading level and release rate. Structural characterization of the samples showed that grafting functional groups had no significant effect on the morphological characteristic and crystal structure of UiO-66. All synthesized MOFs carriers had excellent BET, chemical and thermal stability, though the introduction of NH 2 and NO 2 functional groups were detrimental for these characteristics. Ketoprofen was successfully loaded on the MOFs carriers, and the results of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) indicated UiO-66-NH 2 had the highest loading amount (38%). The ketoprofen release experiment manifested that UiO-66-NH 2 exhibited lowest release rate and partial release of ketoprofen (about 65%) even after 72 h due to the high hydrogen bonds capacity and alkaline characteristic of -NH 2 . Furthermore, chondrocyte cytotoxicity experiment manifested that the synthesized MOFs carriers were rather bio-safe, which ensured them to be used as the drug delivery vehicles.

Carbon dioxide methanation is of great importance for both environment and energy because of the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions and the utilization of carbon source. In this work, UiO-66 was employed as the support for palladium nanoparticles via a sol-gel method to enhance the activity of CO 2 methanation. The physical-chemical properties of as-prepared catalysts were characterized using N 2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), temperature programmed desorption (TPD), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). It was found that there was a synergistic effect between UiO-66 and supported Pd. CO 2 could be activated in UiO-66 via its Zr 6 O 4 (OH) 4 nods, while H 2 molecules were dissociated at Pd for further hydrogenation of activated CO 2 . As a result, the catalyst with a Pd loading of 6 wt.% exhibited a high activity with 56.0% of CO 2 conversion and 97.3% of CH 4 selectivity, corresponding to a STY of 856 g·h −1 ·kg cat −1 at 4 MPa and 340 °C.

Novel CdS/UiO-66-NH 2 heterojunction photocatalysts have been successfully fabricated via facile water bath deposition. Compared with the traditional preparation technology, such strategy introduces deionized water as solvent, reduces production cost and simplifies the fabrication process of the heterojunction photocatalyst. Characterizations indicate that CdS nanoparticles (NPs) are uniformly interspersed on the surface of UiO-66-NH 2 and the intimate contacted heterojunction interface is generated to prevent recombination of photogenerated charge carriers. CdS/UiO-66-NH 2 with a mass ratio of 1.5:1 (CdS: UiO-66-NH 2 ) exhibits the highest photocatalytic degradation rate for RhB of approximately 92.5% in 40 min and excellent photostability through four recycles. Furthermore, Photoluminescence (PL) spectra, UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS), transient photocurrent, electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS), Nyquist plots and Mott-Schottky plots are applied to characterize the photoelectrochemical properties. The observably enhanced photocatalytic performance can be attributed to: 1) larger specific surface area, increased photocatalytic active sites, intimate contacted interface, 2) created n-n type heterojunction, and 3) rapid separation and transfer of photoexcited interfacial charges.
