The evaluation of the concentration of Pb(II) in solution has great significance in avoiding harm to ecology health. In this work, NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) modified ITO glass (NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe)@ITO) was utilized as an electrochemical sensor for the detection of Pb(II) in solutions. FTIR and XPS investigation disclosed that the plentiful surface –NH group on the NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) should be responsible for the highly efficient and selective detection abilities of Pb(II) due to the capture and conductivity abilities. The NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) was prepared by a solvothermal technique and electrophoresed on the surface of ITO glass . A square wave voltammetry (SWV) method is employed for the sensitive determination of Pb(II). The factors of the detection condition such as the pH and ion interference are also studied. The sensitivity of 16.072 μA μM −1 cm −2 in the linear range of 2–4 μM and 54.143 μA μM −1 cm −2 in the linear range of 5–17 μM, and the limit of detection (LOD) of 0.1 μM are acquired. The repeatability and reproducibility are also studied. EIS and Tafel curves are utilized to investigate the effect of temperatures on the properties of the NH 2 -MIL-53. This work presents a facile strategy for the preparation of NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe)@ITO electrochemical sensor via electrolysis, which enhances the sensitivity toward Pb(II) and shows great application potential.

During CO2/HCO3– reduction with renewable biomass, achieving high-efficiency production of the target products is vital but challenging. In this study, an NH2– functional-group-modified MIL-53(Fe) catalyst was synthesized using a facile and efficient method. Under the action of the NH2-MIL-53(Fe) catalyst, a clear synergistic effect was exhibited on the transformation of glucose and NaHCO3 into formic acid with a high yield of 50% at a low reaction temperature (190 °C) via a three-pronged route, which mainly involved the decomposition of intermediates of glucose to gradually reduce NaHCO3 to formic acid under hydrothermal conditions. An in-depth analysis of the catalytic mechanism and density functional theory calculations demonstrated that the increased alkalinity of active sites by the NH2– functional group incorporation into the catalytic system enhanced the crucial reaction steps and reduced the activation energy of the crucial reactions, including glucose isomerization, aldehyde intermediate retro-aldol condensation, and redox of aldehyde compounds and NaHCO3 to formic acid, thereby promoting the generation of target products and suppressing side products. This study addresses the challenge of reducing NaHCO3 from renewable biomass to commercial formic acid by constructing multifunctional active sites, thus providing a new strategy for achieving carbon cycling.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown attractive advantages in adsorbing dyes from wastewater. However, their complex synthesis processes and poor stability have limited their applications. Herein, we proposed a novel two-step route to prepare NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) at room temperature and investigated its dye adsorption performance. The prepared NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) displayed high water stability in the pH range of 3–11. Moreover, NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) showed a significantly higher adsorption capacity and faster adsorption rate towards congo red (CR) than the other selected dyes, with more than 99 % of CR being removed by NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) within 20 min. The maximum adsorption capacity of NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) for CR was 1877 mg·g −1 . Besides, the removal efficiency of CR could maintain higher than 80 % within the tested pH range (3 to 11), and removal efficiency was consistently higher than 95 % at different NaCl concentrations (0 to 0.4 M). The dynamic CR adsorption process matched the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and fitted well using the Langmuir model, suggesting that the adsorption of CR onto NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) was a monomolecular-layer chemical adsorption process. More importantly, NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe) showed high removal efficiency and good reusability towards CR in both synthetic and model wastewater. Mechanistic studies suggested that the removal of CR was attributed to the synergistic effects of the π-π stacking interactions, hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions between CR and NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe). Overall, the present study provides a novel strategy for the facile synthesis of NH 2 -MIL-53(Fe), highlights the excellent adsorption performance and reusability towards CR and underlies the adsorption mechanisms involved.

Due to the strong toxicity of heavy metal ions to public health and the environment, it is a great challenge to develop a method for ultra sensitive capture and determination of heavy metal ions effectively. Herein, a novel heterostructure composite (MIL-53(Fe)/Ag2CrO4, named MA(1:x)) was prepared by a simple method successfully. MA(1:x) modified GCE was applied to detect heavy metals ions simultaneously. Significantly, the designed MA(1:1)/GCE sensors performed outstanding detection performances. The wide ranges of 7.49 ∼ 320.00 μmol l−1 and 7.49 ∼ 320.04 μmol l−1 are obtained for Pb(II) and Cu(II) ions, respectively. The LOD of the MA(1:1)/GCE sensor was determined to be 27.40 nmol l−1 (5.68 ppb) for Pb(II) and 86.96 nmol l−1 (5.52 ppb) for Cu(II) ion simultaneously, which are lower than the allowable level of drinking water stipulated by the World Health Organization (WHO). Possible detection mechanism by the MA(1:1)/GCE was discussed. The MA(1:1)/GCE was successfully applied to monitor heavy metal ions locate in tap and river water. The recoveries are in the range of 93.86%–104.4%, which further proves the potential in analyzing real samples. Moreover, the MA(1:1)/GCE also showed excellent stability, selectivity, reproducibility. A novel method was provided to construct sensitive sensors for simultaneous analysis of different metal ions.

An iron-based metal–organic framework, MIL-53(Fe), was synthesized and added as a synergist to high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and its flame-retardant effect with aluminum diethyl hypophosphite (ADP) and aluminum hypophosphite (AHP) in HDPE was investigated to further improve the flame-retardant efficiency. FTIR results showed that the ADP, AHP, and MIL-53(Fe) were successfully incorporated into the HDPE. The LOI of HDPE-3 and HDPE-7 with 0.75 mass% MIL-53(Fe) was 48.9% and 34.8% higher than that of the pure sample. The combustion grades reached V-0 and V-1. HDPE/MIL-53(Fe)/ADP exhibited more superior flame-retardant properties than HDPE/MIL-53(Fe)/AHP. A synergistic effect between ADP and both AHP and MIL-53(Fe) changes the decomposition process of HDPE. In addition, the FGI value of the composites decreased after the addition of MIL-53(Fe). MIL-53(Fe) enhances the thermal stability of HDPE composites, and improves the quality of the char residue. Experimental results show that MIL-53(Fe) can be used as a flame retardant and is a novel material in polymer flame-retardant research. The new synthetic material shown here may contribute to environmental safety.

Metal-organic framework MIL-53 (Fe)@C/graphite carbon nitride hybrid (MFeCN), a novel flame retardant, was synthesized by hydrothermal reaction and subsequently added into unsaturated polyester resin (UPR). The structure, morphology, and thermal stability of MFeCN were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). The thermal stability and flammability of the UPR composites were characterized by TG and cone calorimeter tests (CCT). The results of CCT demonstrated that the peak heat release rate (pHRR), total heat release (THR), peak smoke production rate (pSPR), and total smoke production (TSP) of UPR/MFeCN-4 were reduced by 39.8%, 10.2%, 33.3%, and 14.5%, respectively, comparing with UPR. The results of TG and CCT indicated that MFeCN could improve the thermal stability, flame retardancy, and smoke suppression properties of the UPR composites. The residues after CCT were then characterized by laser Raman spectroscopy (LRS), XPS, and SEM. Finally, based on the above experimental results and analysis, the flame retardancy mechanism of MFeCN was proposed.

In this work, a novel and effective heterogeneous catalyst, the metal–organic framework MIL-53(Fe), has been synthesized for the purpose of activating persulfate (PS). The catalytic performance of MIL-53(Fe) activated under different vacuum conditions was investigated; the stability and reusability of the catalyst were evaluated, and the activation mechanism was also investigated. The results indicated that vacuum activation could cause variation of the FeII/FeIII relative amount ratio of the catalyst, and thus would change the catalytic activity of MIL-53(Fe), because FeII and FeIII CUS (coordinatively unsaturated metal sites) are alternative active sites. It was found that MIL-53(Fe)-2 exhibits good performance in PS activation and could be used for multiple cycles; an OG removal rate of 98% was obtained within 120 min (95.7% mineralization efficiency) and 94.3% was achieved in the fifth cycle. The mechanism of activation of PS by MIL-53(Fe) was also suggested, which involved a predominant heterogeneous reaction and an auxiliary homogeneous reaction. The findings of this study provide a new insight into the application of reactive metal–organic frameworks in activating persulfate for the degradation of environmental contaminants.

Residual Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris severely impacts juice quality. Conventional thermal treatments fail to completely eliminate bacteria and simultaneously cause the loss of heat-sensitive components. Ultrafiltration (UF) has been a nonthermal alternative to conventional thermal process for the sterilization of apple juice. However, membrane fouling, particularly biofouling is an obstacle for deployment of UF in food processing. In order to tackle the challenging issue of membrane biofouling while ensuring food safety, functionalized UF membrane was developed by multi-stage modifications including metal chelator coating and chlorogenic acid-encapsulated MIL-53(Fe) microparticle grafting. The engineered membrane was applied for cold sterilization of apple juice to remove Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris . Results showed that (i) the engineered membrane could release chlorogenic acid in response to pH stimulation, (ii) the steady state flux of engineered membrane was maintained higher than the pristine membrane after filtration with contaminated apple juice. Only 4.9% viable bacteria were observed on the membrane surface, (iii) the antibacterial mechanism of engineered membrane was mainly due to the disruption of cellular structural integrity and enhanced permeability of cell membranes, which caused the damage to A. acidoterrestris cell, (iv) after filtration, the Fe 3+ concentration in the permeate solution was almost undetectable. The engineered membrane can simultaneously exclude and inactivate A. acidoterrestris in apple juice, while demonstrating excellent anti-adhesion and anti-biofouling properties. Furthermore, the engineered membrane complies with food safety requirements, which verifies that this metal-organic framework modification method has the potential for practical application in food processing.

Improving the efficiency of the anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is important to solve the global energy crisis and greenhouse gas emission problems. In this paper, a preparation method for a MIL-53(Fe)@ZIF-67(Co) composite electrode is proposed. The hierarchical structure formed by the combination of MIL-53(Fe) and ZIF-67(Co) provides a rich channel for the transport of electrons and mass in the OER process. XPS analysis and DFT calculations revealed that Fe electrons in MIL-53(Fe) were transferred to Co in ZIF-67(Co) through O, which confirmed the rapid charge transfer effect of this transport channel. The MIL-53(Fe)@ZIF-67(Co) electrode has significant OER performance. When the current density reaches 10 mA cm−2, the overpotential is only 193 mV. This study inaugurates a new way for the rational design of a multiphase interface and the construction of new MOF channel structures.

A bifunctional photocatalyst-Fe-benzenedicarboxylate (MIL-53(Fe)) has been synthesized successfully via a facile solvothermal method. The resulting MIL-53(Fe) photocatalyst exhibited an excellent visible light ( λ ≥ 420 nm) photocatalytic activity for the reduction of Cr(VI), the reduction rate have reached about 100% after 40 min of visible light irradiation, which has been more efficient than that of N-doped TiO 2 (85%) under identical experimental conditions. Further experimental results have revealed that the photocatalytic activity of MIL-53(Fe) for the reduction of Cr(VI) can be drastically affected by the pH value of the reaction solution, the hole scavenger and atmosphere. Moreover, MIL-53(Fe) has exhibited considerable photocatalytic activity in the mixed systems (Cr(VI)/dyes). After 6 h of visible light illumination, the reduction ratio of Cr(VI) and the degradation ratio of dyes have been exceed 60% and 80%, respectively. More significantly, the synergistic effect can also be found during the process of photocatalytic treatment of Cr(VI) contained wastewater under the same photocatalytic reaction conditions, which makes it a potential candidate for environmental restoration. Finally, a possible reaction mechanism has also been investigated in detail.

In this research, MIL-53(Fe)@BiOBr/TCN/Ti photoanode was created using the secondary silica sol drop coating method, and assembled with Cu cathode to form photocatalytic fuel cell (PFC) to degrade rhodamine B and generate electricity. The resulting PFC has high visible light response and photocatalytic activity . It has a rhodamine B degradation efficiency of 92.19%, a maximum power density of 6.2 μW cm −2 , and a maximum photocurrent density of 0.11 mA cm −2 . Its strong photocatalysis capabilities benefits from the wider light absorption range and lower charge carrier recombination rate of the photoanode. The double Z-scheme heterojunction formed among BiOBr, MIL-53(Fe) and TCN in the composite catalyst of the photoanode provide more transfer channels for photogenerated e − and encourage the separation of e − -h + pairs. ∙OH and ∙O - 2 are the main active substances for rhodamine B degradation. This study offers a novel approach to the development of high-efficiency photoanodes for PFC.

Special enhanced synergistic effect of ultra-small γ-Fe 2 O 3 and graphene oxide (GO) on MIL-53 (Fe) was achieved for boosting photocatalysis. Compared to traditional methods of surface coverage, the incorporation of γ-Fe 2 O 3 (average size 2–3 nm) inside MOFs particles not only increased the light absorption of catalyst, but also formed numerous micro-heterojunctions with MOFs units and thus effectively facilitated the separation of photogenerated carriers. By supplying attachment sites for MOFs crystal, the functionalized GO reduced the size of MOFs particles to 100–200 nm, meanwhile improved their dispersibility. The active sites and quantum yield of photocatalytic reaction were also intensified benefiting from the large surface area and high electronic conductivity of GO. Therefore, the novel γ-Fe 2 O 3 -MIL-53(Fe)-GO composite exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity towards norfloxacin, with a removal rate of 92.8% in 90 min. The kinetic constant was 4.49-fold higher than that using pure MIL-53 (Fe), and 1.43-time greater than that in the system of MIL-53 (Fe) and hydrogen peroxide, which usually acted as efficient electron acceptors to increase the quantum yield and final photocatalytic performance of MOFs. Based on the identified intermediates, three NOR degradation pathways including the cleavage of piperazine ring, defluorination and decarboxylation, as well as the conversion of quinolones group were proposed. Photocatalytic mechanism investigation revealed the holes and hydroxyl radicals came from the reaction of electrons with oxygen played the important role in γ-Fe 2 O 3 -MIL-53(Fe)-GO photocatalysis. Moreover, the utilization of magnetic nanoparticles improved the recovery and recyclability of ternary catalyst.
