In the current research, a porous solid base catalyst (ZIF-90-Gua) was prepared through covalent post-functionalization of zeolitic imidazolate framework ZIF-90 with organic guanidine via an imine condensation reaction. Various techniques such as XRD, SEM, FT-IR, XPS, EDX, TPD, Hammett indicator titration and nitrogen porosimetry measurements were employed to characterize the as-prepared solid catalyst. It was shown that the organic guanidine had been bound on the ZIF-90 frameworks by covalent imine linkages, and the primary crystalline structure of the imidazolium-based ZIF-90 was essentially maintained after the guanidine incorporation. This ZIF-90-Gua catalyst possessed an enhanced basicity, and interconnectivity, leading to highly catalytic activities. As a robust catalyst, the catalytic performances were evaluated in the heterogeneous transesterification of soybean oil with methanol for biodiesel production, and the maximum oil conversion to biodiesel of 95.4% was attained at reaction temperature of 65 °C, with a methanol/oil molar ratio of 15:1, catalyst dosage of 1 wt% (based on the oil mass) within reaction duration of 6 h. The solid catalyst could be easily recovered by filtration and reused for five times without significant decay of the catalytic activity, showing that it has great potential to be used as an efficient and durable catalyst for the clean production of biodiesel.

An in situ zeolite imidazole metal organic framework-90 (ZIF-90) modified capillary was prepared via the method of solvothermal synthesis. The coating of ZIF-90 was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry, and EOF. Capillary electrochromatography–based enantioseparation of the basic drugs propranolol (PRO), metoprolol (MET), atenolol (ATE), bisoprolol (BIS), and sotalol (SOT) was performed using lactobionic acid (LA) as the chiral selector. Compared with an uncoated silica capillary, the resolutions are greatly improved (PRO 1.40 → 3.23; MET 1.07 → 3.19; ATE 1.07 → 3.15; BIS 1.16 → 3.41; SOT 1.00 → 2.79). Effects of buffer pH values, proportion of organic additives, concentration of lactobionic acid, and applied voltage were investigated.

Two-dimensional nanomaterials have the characteristics of high aspect ratio and high space utilization, which has huge potential advantages in gas separation. In this work, g-C 3 N 4 two-dimensional nanosheets with sieving pore structure were selected as templates and combined with ZIF-90 to construct a 0-dimensional/2-dimensional composite material ZIF-90@C 3 N 4 (ZCN). The complete two-dimensional g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets were stripped under acid etching conditions at 25 °C. ZIF-90 was distributed in an orderly manner on the two-dimensional nanosheets, and the nanosheets were spread out due to the growth of ZIF-90 to provide more free volume. The gas permeation experiment proved that the ZCN has a better CO 2 /N 2 separation performance. The ZCN/Pebax mixed matrix membrane (MMM) with the optimized 8.0 wt% ZCN loading showed an improved CO 2 permeability of 110.5 Barrer and a CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of 84.4, surpassing the Robeson upper bound (2008). The results demonstrated that the designed composite filler with 2D nanosheets is an effective strategy to enhance gas separation performance of MMMs and verified the application potential in gas purification industry.

High treatment efficiency and low drug toxicity are two key factors in tumor therapy. The development of multifunctional drug carrier systems is of great significance for the diagnosis and therapy of tumors. Herein, a novel biodegradable treatment system based on zeolitic imidazolate framework-90 (ZIF-90) was designed in this study. This 5-FU@ZIF-90@ZnO (FZZ) drug delivery system achieves synergistic treatment with antineoplastic 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and zinc oxide, and also has good dispersibility in the acidic tumor microenvironment (TME), which enables the drug to achieve pH-controlled delivery in acidic organisms. Interestingly, zinc oxide nanoparticles can play a dual role here. They can prevent the premature leakage of drugs under physiological conditions. Moreover, Zn2+ produced after the decomposition of nanoparticles can act as a therapeutic agent, overcoming the tumor resistance to 5-FU and regulating a series of physiological reactions to inhibit tumor growth. It is worth noting that the porous ZIF-90 is an emerging drug carrier with a relatively high drug loading rate of 39% in this study. Synergistic 5-FU and ZnO nanoparticles have achieved tumor inhibition and have shown high therapeutic biosafety. Thus, the FZZ core–shell nanoparticles are a potential pH-controlled drug release system that can be applied to tumor treatment.

Volatile organic compound (VOC) sensors have recently been developed with sensitive coating layers to improve their performance. However, there are inevitable trade-offs in the performance of the VOC sensors with sensitive layers. It remains challenge to achieve higher sensitivity, faster response time, working at room temperature and better selectivity at the same time for real-world applications. In this work, we demonstrated a novel photothermal-assisted gas sensor using a microfiber long period grating (LPG) modified with zeolitic imidazolate framework-90 (ZIF-90)/graphene oxide (GO) for enhanced VOC acetone sensing. The GO-isolated ZIF-90 exhibited ultralow conductivity and high porosity, which significantly promoted light-to-heat energy conversion by trapping thermal and minimizing heat loss. Besides, the natural porosity and ultrahigh surface area of the ZIF-90 showed superior molecular adsorption making it a good choice for the acetone-sensitive layer. Based on the porous ZIF-90/GO nanohybrid and photothermal effects, the proposed sensor showed improved performance compared without adding laser towards acetone, with the sensitivity of 26.1 pm/ppm and low limit of detection of 760 ppb. Moreover, the proposed photothermal technology enhanced the response time down to 410 ms without sacrificing sensitivity. Thus, our proposed sensor constitutes a promising platform for effective acetone sensing systems that can be used for environmental monitoring and industry.

Methidathion (MTDT), a common organophosphorus pesticide with high insecticidal activity, is widely used for pest control. However, the misuse of MTDT leads to widespread residues and endangers human health. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a simple and highly sensitive method for the detection of MTDT residues. Herein, ZIF-90/MnO 2 /g-C 3 N 4 /Fe 3 O 4 composite particles were synthesized: The MnO 2 nanosheets could absorb the energy of the excited g-C 3 N 4 to quench the ECL of g-C 3 N 4 while ZIF-90 acted as a mimetic enzyme to catalyze the formation of thiocholine from MTDT. The thiocholine caused the reduction of MnO 2 to Mn 2+ , restoring the ECL signal of g-C 3 N 4 . Combined with molecular imprinting technique, an electrochemiluminescence sensor was constructed for the determination of MTDT. The determination range was 1.00 × 10 –9 ~ 7.00 × 10 –7 g/L, and the detection limit was 6.58 × 10 –10 g/L. Structurally similar organophosphorus pesticides showed no cross-reactivity. The method has high sensitivity and specificity, and has been successfully applied to the determination of MTDT residue in fruits with recoveries in the range 93.75% ~ 102.37%. Graphical abstract

Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) based microparticles have been widely applied in drug delivery system, but pristine PLGA particles suffers from low efficiency in release and non-targeted effect for drug delivery system. Inspired by cancer cells environment, we have fabricated an ATP-triggered delivery system based on porous PLGA microspheres covering drug-loaded ZIF-90. The system contains controlled doxorubicin releasing because ZIF-90 nanocrystals are easily collapsed under exposing to high-concentration ATP environment. In addition, [email protected] microparticles also perform low toxicity and 2.37 % hemolysis, and improved fluorescence intensity of doxorubicin by loading riboflavin sodium phosphate benefited from their partial Förster resonance energy transfer. This novel ATP-triggered drug delivery system based on porous PLGA particles could be widely utilized to design effective drug release biomaterials for gastric and lung cancer.

Herein, we designed a BODIPY-based probe (BZA-BOD@ZIF-90) with good stability through the encapsulation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). BZA-BOD@ZIF-90 can selectively detect protamine based on an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect. In the present strategy, the designed BZA-BOD@ZIF-90 showed excellent fluorescence response to protamine with a low detection limit of 0.07 μg/mL and the detection was not disturbed by other possible competing substances. Compared with previous methods, BZA-BOD designed by this method is simpler to obtain, and also can achieve sensitive and accurate determination of protamine. Subsequently, the nanocomposite BZA-BOD@ZIF-90 was successfully applied to detect protamine spiked in human serum. In addition, due to the strong binding effect of heparin on protamine, when heparin was added to the complex, the fluorescence intensity of the BZA-BOD@ZIF-90 weakened, thus, it can also be utilized for heparin detection. The medical application of protamine and heparin suggests that this fluorescent molecular device has prospects for certain clinical applications.

Zeolite imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) represent a class of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for various potential applications due to their outstanding properties. However, to date, the creation of nanoframes with tunable structure faces a challenge. Herein, we develop a facile and efficient physical method that allows the preparation of ZIF-90 with controllable surface area. In this study, the effect of various stirring time and speed in the acceleration of the precursor dissolution are revealed. The study shows that a moderate stirring speed (640 r · min –1 ) and reaction time (6 h) are the optimal conditions to synthesize ZIF-90 with a high adsorption capacity. More importantly, the maximum adsorption amount of n -hexane is up to 211 mg · g –1 by using this as-prepared sample, which increases by 60 % in comparison with that of the minimum from other sample (133 mg · g –1 ).

Superwetting membrane have gained significant attention as a highly effective solution for oily wastewater treatment. However, its effectiveness was restricted when separating different types of oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions due to the limited single wettability of the membrane surfaces. Developing superwetting membranes with broad applicability and high separation efficiency is crucial for the continued advancement of membrane separation technology. In this study, a hydrophilic polymer, poly 2-hydroxybutyl methacrylate (PHBMA) was introduced into the polyacrylonitrile (PAN) substrate, and zeolitic imidazolate framework-90 (ZIF-90) particles were synchronously grown and in-situ immobilized on the membrane surface in process of phase inversion, forming a ZIF-90@P-PAN membrane with switchable superwettability. With increasing ZIF-90 growth time, the membrane surface first became rougher due to crystal formation, then gradually denser as particle accumulation increased. This membrane exhibited super-amphiphilicity in air and super-amphiphobicity under liquid, demonstrating high permeation flux and excellent separation efficiency (>99 %) for different types of emulsions. The effects of ZIF-90 particles with different growth times on the membrane morphology, wettability and oil–water separation performance were systematically studied. Additionally, the removal efficiency (>80 %) and recycling performance of the ZIF-90@P-PAN membrane for four different heavy metal ions were investigated. This work contributed to the development of superwetting membranes for efficient recovery of oily wastewater.

Humidity plays an important role in many fields, and the realization of high sensitivity and fast response simultaneously for humidity detection is a great challenge in practical application. In this work, we demonstrated a high-performance relative humidity (RH) sensor made by supporting zeolitic imidazolate framework-90 (ZIF-90)-derived porous zinc oxide (ZnO) onto an optical microfiber Sagnac interferometer (OMSI). The ZIF-90-modified OMSI (ZIF-90-OMSI) sensor was in situ heated at different temperatures to obtain porous ZnO, and their humidity-sensing properties were investigated ranging from 25 to 80% RH. The experimental results showed that the porous ZnO fiber sensor prepared at 500 °C (Z500-OMSI) exhibited best humidity-sensing performance with a high sensitivity of 96.2 pm/% RH (25–45% RH) and 521 pm/% RH (50–80% RH) and ultrafast response/recovery time (62.37/206.67 ms) at 22.3% RH. These performances were attributed to the complete transformation of ZIF-90 to ZnO at 500 °C. The obtained Z500 not only retained the high porosity and specific surface area of ZIF-90 but also exhibited the exceptional hydrophilicity of ZnO. In addition, the signals of the proposed Z500-OMSI sensor changed with different breathing patterns, indicating the possibility for human respiration monitoring. This work provided a reliable candidate for an effective RH monitoring system with potential application in medical diagnoses, industrial production, environmental detection, and human health monitoring.

To achieve the rapid and sensitive detection of trace methyl parathion (MP) in river water and edible agricultural products, the catalytic composite material zirconium hydroxide (Zr(OH)4)/zeolite imidazolate framework-90 (ZIF-90) was prepared by a one-step synthesis method. The composite was further incorporated with a conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) hydrogel to prepare a modified electrode. Then, an electrochemical sensing method based on the PEDOT:PSS/Zr(OH)4/ZIF-90 composite was successfully established for the analysis and detection of MP. The component ratio of the composite material, modification amount and pH value of the detection substrate were optimized. The electrochemical properties of the composite modified electrode were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) techniques, and the results confirmed that it had good electrochemical properties. The electrochemical response of the established sensing method to MP showed a good linear relationship in the concentration range of 1–250 µmol L−1, and its detection limit and sensitivity reached 0.74 µmol L−1 and 0.09 µA µmol−1 L−1, respectively. The interference of common coexisting ions on the detection performance of the PEDOT:PSS/Zr(OH)4/ZIF-90 modified electrode was further investigated, and it was applied for the quantitative analysis of MP in actual river water and apple samples. The electrochemical sensing method developed in this work provides a new way for the efficient detection of MP residues in environmental water and agricultural products.
