Fluorinated graphene (FG) among numerous two-dimensional materials has enormous potential in improving antifriction properties. However, they being susceptible to thermal oxidation and prone to wear hinder practical applications. Herein, UIO-66-NH2 (Zr-MOF) enjoying good chemical and thermal stabilities was assembled on the surface of FG nanosheets under covalent bonds and van der Waals forces. The Zr-MOF@FG composite was successfully synthesized and used as a lubricant additive. It can be seen that Zr-MOF@FG composites offer a synergistic lubricant mechanism at the friction interface. Moreover, due to the adsorption and purification performance of Zr-MOF, the obtained Zr-MOF@FG composite adsorbs the abrasive rust during the friction process, thereby realizing the purification of the lubricant. These findings suggest that Zr-MOF@FG shows tremendous potential as a lubricant additive.

In the current investigation, the base-metal hollow multifunctional catalyst, Pd–IL@H-UiO-66-NH2, was fabricated utilizing a hydrothermal method followed by etching and supporting processes. The results of the effort demonstrate that Pd–IL@H-UiO-66-NH2 displays significantly enhanced activity and product selectivity in catalysis of the one-pot Knoevenagel condensation–hydrogenation reaction, as well as a high level of generality in promoting hydrogenation reactions of unsaturated hydrocarbons. The excellent properties of Pd–IL@H-UiO-66-NH2 are ascribed to its rationally designed spatial distribution of catalytically active sites within its hierarchical structure, which is comprised of surface wrinkles that increase hydrophobicity and exposure of the active sites, and hollow structures that serve as nanoreactors to enrich substrate interactions and improve mass transfer. Furthermore, the catalytic stability of Pd–IL@H-UiO-66-NH2 was shown to be largely maintained after its use in five successive catalytic cycles. The stability of the new tandem catalyst benefits from strong confinement effects associated with its hollow structure and electronic interactions between the Pd and ILs that effectively restrict leaching and aggregation of Pd nanoparticles (NPs).

A novel porous liquid, M2070-UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ], has been synthesized using zirconium-based metal–organic framework (UiO-66-OH), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMim][PF 6 ]) and polyetheramine M2070. To enhance the CO 2 separation performance, M2070-UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ] was incorporated as a filler into a mixed matrix membrane (MMM) using polyether block amide (Pebax-1657) as the membrane matrix. The properties of the synthesized M2070-UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ] and the resulting MMMs have been characterized through FTIR, TGA, DSC, and SEM analyses. The results of porous liquid stability revealed that grafting polyetheramine M2070 onto the surface of UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ] significantly increased the steric hindrance, thereby preventing agglomeration within the membrane. Additionally, the functional groups (amino and ether) present in M2070-UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ] contributed to an increased number of active sites for CO 2 adsorption, facilitating enhanced CO 2 transport through the membrane. Compared to the Pebax membrane, the MMM containing 3% M2070-UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ] exhibited significantly improved CO 2 permeability of 104.07 Barrer (an increase of 73.22%) and CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of 92.37 (an increase of 148.95%) at 30 °C and 0.3 MPa, surpassing the 2008 Robeson upper bound. These findings suggest that M2070-UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ] is a highly promising additive for the fabrication of mixed matrix membranes with superior CO 2 separation performance. Graphical abstract A porous liquid, (M2070-UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ]) has been prepared using UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ] as the core and polyetheramine M2070 as the canopy. Afterwards, M2070-UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ] has been added to the Pebax matrix to prepare M2070-UiO-66-OH@[BMim][PF 6 ]/Pebax mixed matrix membranes, which have been subjected to gas separation studies.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are regarded as excellent carriers for immobilized enzymes due to their substantial specific surface area, high porosity, and easily tunable pore size. Nevertheless, the use of UIO−66 material is significantly limited in immobilized enzymes due to the absence of active functional groups on its surface. This study comprised the synthesis of UIO−66 and subsequent modification of the proline (Pro) on UIO−66 through post-synthetic modification. UIO−66 and UIO−66/Pro crystals were employed as matrices to immobilizeRhizopus oryzaelipase (ROL). The contact angle demonstrated that the introduction of Pro onto UIO−66 resulted in favorable conformational changes in the structure of ROL. The immobilized enzyme ROL@UIO−66/Pro, produced via the covalent-bonding method, exhibited greater activity (0.064715 U/mg (about 1.73 times that of the free enzyme)) and stability in the ester hydrolysis reaction. The immobilized enzymes ROL@UIO−66 (131.193 mM) and ROL@UIO−66/Pro (121.367 mM), which were synthesized using the covalent-bonding approach, exhibited a lowerKmand higher substrate affinity compared to the immobilized enzyme ROL@UIO−66/Pro (24.033 mM) produced via the adsorption method. This lays a solid foundation for the industrialization of immobilized enzymes.

The concentration of micropollutants (MPs) in water is low, but they are highly harmful and difficult to remove. Biocatalytic membrane combines membrane separation and enzyme catalysis thus being efficient. Herein, a sulfonated covalent organic framework (SCOF) was grown in situ on the surface of a hydrolyzed polyacrylonitrile (HPAN) membrane coated with a polydopamine (PDA) layer to provide a defect-free substrate layer for the pressure-assisted self-assembly of rigid UiO-66-NH 2 nanoparticles and organic laccase with electrostatic attraction. In the obtained multilayer loose biocatalytic membrane, UiO-66-NH 2 nanoparticles can provide trans -membrane mass transfer channels for water molecules and intercept pollutants, and laccase can degrade MPs and eliminate defects among UiO-66-NH 2 nanoparticles. By optimizing the membrane preparation conditions, the biocatalytic membrane has a bisphenol A (BPA) removal rate of 96.9%. The removal rate of dyes can reach more than 98% with a pure water permeance of 211.3 LMH/bar, and the generally < 20% salt removal efficiency endows the membrane with good dye/salt separation ability. At the same time, the membrane has BPA removal rate of over 80% under pH of 4 ∼ 11 and feed BPA concentration of 4–100 mg/L, respectively. The membrane initial activity can maintain more than 90% after 10 days of storage in aqueous solution. After 7 times of reuse, the removal rate of BPA was still more than 60%. Overall, this study opens up a convenient avenue for the facial fabrication of multilayer biocatalytic membranes for efficient MPs removal.

Solid electrolytes offer the advantages of a wide temperature operating range, high safety, and excellent cycling stability. However, their commercialization is hindered by challenges such as low ionic conductivity, high interface impedance, and poor mechanical properties. In this study, a metal-organic framework material UiO-66 was synthesized and subsequently modified with -NH 2 and -NO 2 functional groups. The modified material was blended with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) to produce a composite polymer solid electrolyte, which was used to assemble a Li||Li symmetric battery. The experimental findings revealed that UiO-66-NH 2 /PEO exhibited high ionic conductivity of 6.79 × 10⁻⁴ S/cm at 60°C, a high Li + transference number of 0.49, and a wide electrochemical window of 5.1 V. Notably, its lithium-ion transference number was higher than that of UiO-66/PEO (0.27) and UiO-66-NO 2 /PEO (0.36). Moreover, UiO-66-NH 2 /PEO demonstrated improved interface compatibility and lower interface impedance, presenting a promising material option for advancing the field of all-solid-state lithium-ion batter.

Metal-organic framework materials (MOFs) have shown great promise in electrochemical sensing applications due to their high specific surface area, excellent thermal and chemical stability. However, the practical application of MOFs in non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensing is limited by their inherent drawbacks, such as poor electrical conductivity and low mass transfer efficiency. To overcome these challenges, we successfully synthesized a Co@UiO-66-NH 2 /acetylene black (Co@UiO-66-NH 2 /AB) nanocomposite through a dual-solvent method followed by mechanical grinding method and applied it as an efficient electrochemical glucose sensor. Experimental results demonstrate that the Co@UiO-66-NH 2 /AB nanocomposite exhibits significantly enhanced electrochemical sensing performance for glucose detection, compared to pure Co@UiO-66-NH 2 . Specifically, 0.5Co@UiO-66-NH 2 /AB nanocomposite achieves sensitivities of 89.60 μA·mM −1 ·cm −2 and 37.65 μA·mM −1 ·cm −2 in the linear ranges of 0–800 μM and 800–6000 μM, respectively, with a low detection limit of 2.31 μM and a rapid response time of approximately 3.6 s. Additionally, 0.5Co@UiO-66-NH 2 /AB nanocomposite demonstrates remarkable stability, with the current signal remaining nearly constant over an extended period of 3000 s. This enhanced performance can be attributed to the abundant active sites provided by Co@UiO-66-NH 2 , coupled with the enhanced electrical conductivity imparted by acetylene black. Moreover, the sensor exhibits minimal interference from common interfering substances, such as uric acid, dopamine hydrochloride, and ascorbic acid, was observed during glucose detection. Meanwhile, the 0.5Co@UiO-66-NH 2 /AB nanocomposite was also applied for the rapid determination of glucose in bovine serum albumin. Consequently, the Co@UiO-66-NH 2 /AB nanocomposite holds great potential for application in electrochemical biosensors.

Nanocellular polymer foams are highly valued for their light weight, high strength, and unique nanostructures, offering significant potential for diverse applications. However, their fabrication and practical use are constrained by the low cell nucleation efficiency and the necessity for extremely high-pressure foaming processes. In this work, we successfully fabricated polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) nanocellular foam featuring a cell density on the order of 1013 cells cm–3 at a relatively low foaming pressure of 6.0 MPa. This accomplishment was achieved through the use of UiO-66-X nanoparticles as nucleation facilitators, which exhibited a high nucleation efficiency of 1.94. Four distinct UiO-66-X nanoparticles, each adorned with different functional groups, were synthesized and proven to act as efficacious nucleators for PMMA nanofoams. The successful synthesis of UiO-66-X nanoparticles and the integration of functional groups were corroborated through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The cell dimensions and density of the PMMA nanocellual foam were characterized via SEM analyses. Our findings revealed that the incorporation of UiO-66-X nanoparticles dramatically minimized the cell size of the PMMA foam, thereby attaining an elevated cell density. This enhancement is attributed to a reduction in the free energy for cell nucleation within nanocavities situated at the matrix–nucleator interface. Consequently, the meticulous design of high-performance nucleating particles and the judicious selection of foam matrix constituents emerge as pivotal strategies in the quest for polymer cellular materials exhibiting nanoscale cell dimensions. These insights significantly advance the fabrication of polymer foams with enhanced thermal insulation properties and have broad implications for the realm of honeycomb materials science. By optimizing nucleation mechanisms and material combinations, this work paves the way for the development of advanced cellular polymers tailored for applications where superior insulation or light weight yet robust structures are paramount.

Cr(VI), a hazardous heavy metal pollutant found in wastewater, exerts detrimental effects on biological system and the human body. Efficient photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) using high-performance materials offers a viable approach for chromium decontamination. In the current work, the defective UiO-66-(OH)2 with enhanced photocatalytic activity was developed by the plasma treatment. These defects not only triggered an expansion in mesoporous domains and increased the BET surface area of the UiO-66-(OH)2 system, thereby exposing more adsorption and photocatalytically active sites, but also created additional electron migration pathways, enhancing the separation of photogenerated e-/h+ pairs. When subjected to an operating power of 15 W, chamber pressure at 20 Pa, and a 300-second treatment period, UiO-66-(OH)2 exhibited a removal efficiency of 83 %. This work explored a novel way for the construction of the defective MOFs and broadened the utilizationation of MOFs in the fields of photoreduction of heavy metal ions in water.

A zirconium-based metal-organic framework material (UiO-66-OH) was designed and applied for the first time as an adsorbent in food analysis for the solid phase microextraction of trace polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) from milk. The materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analyses. Through response surface methodology, the optimal conditions for adsorption were determined to as follows: extraction time of 30 min, ionic strength of 15%, extraction temperature of 61 °C, and stirring speed of 880 r/min. Under the optimal conditions, the method showed excellent linearity with a high correlation coefficient ( r ≥ 0.9994), low limits of detection in the range of 0.15–0.35 ng L −1 , good interday precision ranging of 7.58%-9.48%, and satisfactory recoveries of 74.7%-118.0%. All these findings showed that the method was reliable and effective for detecting trace PBDEs in milk.

Enzyme reaction has been accepted widely in numerous applications owing to the high efficiency and stereo-selectivity, as well as simple preparation by gene engineering. However, the fragility and complex purification process of the enzyme are long-standing problems which limit the large-scale application. One possible solution may be the enzyme immobilization. As one type of porous material with high loading capacity and designable functionality, Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are ideal choices for the immobilization of enzyme with a considerable interest in recent years. In this study, d -amino acid transaminase ( DAT ), an important enzyme for industrial synthesis of d -Ala, was covalently immobilized on the surface of a star MOFs material, UiO-66-NH 2. Interestingly, we found that the nanoscale hybrid enzyme UiO-66-NH 2 -Gd- DAT not only maintained the high catalytic efficiency but also got rid of the interference of polluting enzymes, which meant that we could obtain efficient and stereo-selective immobilized enzyme without complex purification process. In general, our findings demonstrated that using UiO-66-NH 2 might be a promising strategy to immobilize enzyme and produce effective biocatalyst with high activity and stereo-selectivity.

Nowadays, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increasingly jeopardize ecosystem sustainability and human well-being. In this study, UiO-66 and its different electron beam (EB) irradiation doses (100, 300, 500 kGy) modified materials supported Pt catalysts, Pt/UiO-66 and Pt/UiO-66-X (X = 100, 300, and 500, representing the irradiation doses), were synthesized, and a series of characterizations were conducted on the samples. On this basis, the effectiveness of these catalysts was evaluated through the degradation of ethyl acetate. The study findings indicated that the sample irradiated at 100 kGy demonstrated superior catalytic performance. Thereafter, extensive tests with regard to water resistance, stability, and cycle performance indicated that the Pt/UiO-66-100 catalyst was characterized by satisfactory reusability and catalytic stability, even when faced with high heat and humidity. Further work with in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) and thermal desorption–gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (TD-GC–MS) uncovered the process of degradation of ethyl acetate. This research provides a guideline for the design of high-performance VOC degradation catalysts through EB modification.
