Carbon fiber(CF) reinforced flexible composites had a wide range of applications. However, the interfacial adhesion of composites was weak as a result of the smooth and chemically inert CF surface. To settle this issue, this paper described a method to enhance the specific surface area, roughness and wettability of the CF surface by in situ growing Cobalt-based zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) nanocrystals and CF reinforced waterborne polyurethane (WPU) composites were prepared by a simple casting method. Scanning electron microscopy clearly revealed uniformly grown ZIF-67 nanoarrays with distinct morphology on the CF surface. As a result, the CF@ZIF-3 electrode exhibited excellent electrochemical property, with specific capacitance reaching 368.2 mF/cm 2 . The reinforcing effect of ZIF-67 with different morphology was further verified through transverse fiber bundle tension test and shear bonding strength measurements, showing improvements of 51.9 and 72.1% respectively, in comparison to the CF/WPU composites due to the unique structure of the ZIF-67 nanocrystals acted as buffer area, effectively relieving stress concentration and altering the direction of crack propagation. As a result, the interfacial properties of the composites were enhanced. Moreover, tensile and tear strengths of CF@ZIF/WPU composites showed remarkable improvement compared to CF/WPU composites. This study presented a potential reinforcement strategy for achieving high-performance CF/WPU composites. Highlights ZIF-67 with different morphologies were grown in situ on the CF surface. CF@ZIF electrode exhibited excellent electrochemical property. ZIF-67 interface layer improved interfacial properties of composites. The tensile strength of the composites improved after ZIF-67 modification. Introduction of ZIF-67 enhanced the tear strength of composites.

Nylon mesh has been applied in various fields because of its intrinsic mechanical and chemical stability. However, its application is limited by its surface property. In this work, nylon mesh was first designed to integrate with a zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) with a distinct hydrophobic property. Herein, the mechanically stable nylon mesh/carboxymethyl chitosan/ZIF-67 (NY/CMCS/ZIF-67) composite membranes were prepared via layer-by-layer self-assembly of CMCS surface functional groups to coordinate with cobalt ion and in situ growth of ZIF-67. The prepared NY/CMCS/ZIF-67 membranes were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. After modifications, the ZIF-67 content in the membranes reached 22 %. The water contact angle increased from 47.5 ° for nylon mesh to 128.8 ° for NY/CMCS/ZIF-67. The NY/CMCS/ZIF-67 composite membranes exhibited good oil-water emulsion separation property and oil absorption ability. After 15 oil absorption-drying cycle experiments, the oil absorption ability of the membrane was still greater than 95 %, and the oil absorption rate was 6.8 g/g. The modified nylon mesh could still be used for dye removal, the adsorption capacity of the membrane increased by 50 % compared with that of NY/CMCS, and the adsorption processes followed the pseudo-second-order model. Thus, this research provides new insights into the preparation of efficient modified nylon film with great application potential for filtration and separation in complex environments.

Bi-transition metal carbides (BTMCs) are promising in catalytic fields, but the synthesis of small-sized BTMCs remains a challenge. Here, MoxCoxC (mainly below 20 nm in size) confined in uniform carbon polyhedrons (MoxCoxC@C) was synthesized based on trapping [PMo12O40]3− (PMo12) clusters into pre-synthesized, uniform ZIF-67 (PMo/ZIF-67). The opening of the windows (0.34 nm) of ZIF-67 cages through heating is essential to allow the trapping of PMo12 into the cages. This trapping route provides a new method to successfully combine POMs and MOFs that can not be effectively combined via traditional POMOF-based (simultaneous assembly) routes. It also has advantages in controlling the uniformity and components of the materials. The size matching of PMo12 (1 nm) and the cages (1.16 nm) of ZIF-67 enables effective contact of the Co and Mo sources, thus giving small-sized MoxCoxC protected by carbon via calcination. The optimized catalysts showed good performance for water splitting with a low η10 of 83 mV (295 mV) for the hydrogen (oxygen) evolution reaction, which is superior to those derived from ZIF-67 and precursors from POMOF-based routes. Our results also indicated that the HER activity is determined by the kind of BTMC, and the activity for the OER is relative to the oxygen-containing species formed during the initial OER test.

The increasing hazard of electromagnetic radiation prompts people to pursue absorbing materials with better performance. However, absorbing materials with a single loss mechanism usually is unable to obtain better absorbing performance due to low impedance matching or high filling ratio. Therefore, this work proposes a C/NiCo2S4 (CNCS) material with both dielectric loss/magnetic loss to achieve efficient absorption of electromagnetic waves. The simple preparation of CNCS materials was achieved through the etching of the ZIF-67 template by nickel nitrate and the subsequent hydrothermal vulcanization process. Its unique prismatic dodecahedron hollow structure promotes multiple scattering of electromagnetic waves. The attachment of the magnetic NiCo2S4 particles on the surface of the carbon template further promotes the interface polarization and dipole polarization, which is equivalent to the formation of a resistance-rich microcircuit and enhances the effect of the conductance loss on electromagnetic waves. At 2–18 GHz, the CNCS-2 with 30% paraffin addition achieves an effective bandwidth of 5.54 GHz at a matching thickness of 1.7 mm, and has a maximum reflection loss of −36.44 dB at 1.5 mm. By adjusting the thickness of the material matching layer (1–3 mm), an effective bandwidth of up to 13.48 GHz can be achieved, perfectly covering the X-band and Ku-band. Based on the simple preparation process of the material, the special hollow structure and the multiple loss mechanisms for electromagnetic waves, we believe that CNCS can become a strong competitor for high-efficiency broadband absorbers.

Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of lignin-derived phenolic compounds plays a crucial role in the production of renewable biofuels. In this regard, a series of different Co@NC catalysts were prepared with ZIF-67 as a sacrificial template by modulating the catalyst pyrolysis temperature and used for the catalytic hydrodeoxygenation of lignin-derived phenolic model compound 4-ethylphenol for the preparation of cyclohexanols/ cyclohexanes. The results showed that the low-temperature pyrolysis will retain a large number of CoO x compounds, which led to a high dispersion of Co. For Co@NC catalysts, the uniformly dispersed Co component facilitated the adsorption and transfer of hydrogen, and the exposed surface of the carrier promoted the adsorption of reactants. The pyrolysis temperature also played a crucial role in the differences in catalyst crystal surface, specific surface area, acid strength distribution and oxygen vacancies. Co@NC catalyst prepared at 600 °C has a stronger hydrogen absorption capacity, the largest specific surface area and a higher number of oxygen vacancies. Therefore, the Co@NC-600 catalyst showed the best HDO activity. Under the mild conditions (220 °C, 2.5 h and 3 MPa H 2 ), the conversion of 4-ethylphenol was close to 100 %, and the selectivities of 4-ethylcyclohexanol and ethylcyclohexane were 62.7 % and 10.8 %, respectively.

The facile synthesis of composite material, combining magnetic CoO with ZIF-67 (CoO@ZIF-67), has been successfully developed. This innovative approach involves the growth of a crystalline (ZIF-67) derived from stable and abundant CoO, resulting in the formation of the composite magnetic CoO@ZIF-67. The synthesis method, based on a solid-state thermal approach (SST), is straightforward and efficient, conducted in a single step and under solvent-free conditions, leading to the homogeneously composite formation of CoO@ZIF-67. Importantly, the composite magnetic CoO@ZIF-67 material has demonstrated remarkable catalytic performance as a heterogeneous catalyst in various reactions while requiring a lower catalyst loading under comparable conditions to those needed for pure ZIF-67. A significant advantage of this newly developed composite catalyst, CoO@ZIF-67, is its ease of separation and recyclability. The recovery catalyst can be achieved through the use of an external magnet, making it a standout feature of the green and environmentally friendly synthetic procedure used in its production.

To enhance the photocatalytic efficiency of ZIF-67 (Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-67), we integrated it with Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene through in-situ synthesis and assessed the effects of different MXene concentrations on photocatalytic activity. We identified ZIF-67/Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene as the optimal catalyst (denoted as ZT-450), yielding CO, CH 4 , and H 2 at 62.7, 6.7, and 7.3 μmol g −1 , respectively. The CO productive rate achieved by ZT-450 exhibits a substantial enhancement, outperforming both ZIF-67 and Ti 3 C 2 T x by factors of 16.1 and 4.8, respectively. After introducing Ti 3 C 2 T x in ZIF-67, CO 2 adsorption ability achieves 127.90 μmol g −1 , much higher than those of pure ZIF-67 and Ti 3 C 2 T x . Combining Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, we established that introducing Ti 3 C 2 T x in ZIF-67 facilitates rapid electron transfer and improves light absorption, CO 2 activation. In-situ DRIFTS measurements of photocatalytic CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR) on ZIF-67/Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene composite were employed to reveal the emergence of intermediates such as *COOH, *CHO, *OCH 3 , etc ., and elucidate the mechanism accordingly. This research contributes to the advancement of photocatalytic CO 2 RR, offering insights into applying Ti 3 C 2 Tx MXene in photocatalysis.

Zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) coating was successfully fabricated through electrophoretic deposition (EPD) methods. The study on the electrophoretic deposition behavior indicates isopropanol containing polyethyleneimine is the suitable dispersion system. The N-doped porous carbon coating electrode derived from the pyrolyzed ZIF-67 coating shows a high specific capacitance of 197 F·g −1 at a scan rate of 50 mV·s −1 . We believe that this study can pave a new way for preparing ZIF-67 coating or ZIF-67 derivative coating for application in supercapacitor electrode and electro-catalyst.

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs), composed of typical lamellar architectures, have become splendid electroactive materials for supercapacitors by means of large specific surface area and high theoretical capacitance. However, severe agglomerations and poor conductivities of single LDHs are disadvantageous to obtain the excellent electrochemical performance. Herein, polypyrrole nanotubes (PNTs) with good conductivity and mechanical capacity were prepared for in situ growth of ZIF-67, and the obtained PNT@ZIF-67 nanocomposites could serve as effective sacrificial templates and Co2+ sources. After a facile solvothermal reaction and acid etching, three-dimension hierarchical PNT-interconnected nickel cobalt-layered double hydroxide (PNT@NiCo-LDH) nanocages were successfully synthesized to construct the supercapacitors, in which the formed networking hierarchical structure could facilitate the uniform distribution of ZIF-67-derived NiCo-LDH nanocages, not only providing an enhanced conductivity and cycling stability but also achieving outstanding specific capacitance (1448.2 F g–1 at 1 A g–1). Additionally, the asymmetric supercapacitor, assembled by positive PNT@NiCo-LDH and negative activated carbon, could achieve an excellent energy density of 64.4 Wh kg–1 at 800 W kg–1 and endure a satisfactory cycling stability with 84.3% capacitance retention over 5000 cycles, which was superior to the electrochemical properties of the NiCo-LDH-dependent asymmetric supercapacitor, showing a promising prospect in high-performance supercapacitors.

We prepared a double-layer magnetic nanocomposite Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8@ZIF-67 by layer-by-layer self-assembly. Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8@ZIF-67 was used to remove tetracycline from an aqueous solution via a combination of adsorption and Fenton-like oxidation. Depending on the outstanding porous structure of the Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8@ZIF-67, a high adsorption capacity for tetracycline was 356.25 mg g −1 , with > 95.47% removal efficiency within 100 min based on Fenton-like oxidation. To better understand the mechanisms involved in integrated adsorption and Fenton-like oxidation, various advanced characterization techniques were used to monitor the changes in morphology and composition of Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8@ZIF-67 before and after removal of tetracycline. Scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) all supported adsorption and Fenton oxidation of tetracycline. This study extends the application of Fe 3 O 4 @ZIF-8@ZIF-67 for environmental remediation. Graphical abstract

This study developed an innovative adsorbent—cobalt ferrocyanide/ZIF-67/aged garbage humus soil aerogel (PBA/ZIF-67/AARH aerogel)—specifically designed for the effective removal of cesium ions (Cs) from radioactive wastewater. The aerogel exhibited a maximum adsorption capacity of up to 51.92 mg/g, maintaining excellent Cs adsorption performance even in complex aquatic environments that contain other ions and dissolved organic matter (DOM). The experimental results showed that the adsorption effect of PBA/ZIF-67/AARH aerogel was the best when the dosage of PBA/ZIF-67/AARH aerogel was 0.01 g and pH value was 5. The adsorption capacity was 29.75 ± 0.5 mg/g. At the same time, PBA/ZIF-67/AARH aerogel has good regeneration stability. After five sorption-desorption cycles, the adsorption capacity is 20.1 ± 0.3 mg/g, and the Cs removal rate remains at 84.5 ± 0.5%. The PBA/ZIF-67/AARH aerogel also has a large specific surface area, reaching 30.7950 m 2 /g. Experimental analyses indicated that the Cs removal process aligns with both the Langmuir adsorption model and pseudo-second-order kinetics, revealing key mechanisms for adsorption efficiency, including ion exchange, functional group complexation, and the synergistic effects of cross-linking. This research provides a novel solution for the efficient removal of Cs, establishing a solid theoretical and practical foundation for future applications in pollution water treatment technologies. It holds significant potential for environmental protection and profound implications for human health.

Carbon dioxide capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technology is considered an effective solution to achieve carbon neutrality. In CCUS, chemical absorption stands out as an efficient CO 2 capture method suitable for environments with low CO 2 partial pressures. This study aims to enhance the CO 2 capture performance of monoethanolamine (MEA) solution by employing zeolitic imidazolate frameworks ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 as catalysts. The impacts of catalyst concentration and experimental temperature on the quantity, rate of absorption, rate of desorption, and reusability of MEA for CO 2 absorption were investigated. Changes in the volume concentration of CO 2 in the mixed gas were monitored to assess these parameters. The results demonstrated that at a catalyst concentration of 150 mg/mL for ZIF-8 and 125 mg/mL for ZIF-67, MEA achieved CO 2 absorption quantity of 22.22 % and 18.89 %, respectively. This corresponded to substantial increases of 63.39 % and 125.9 % in the CO 2 maximum absorption rate of MEA solution. While the maximum desorption rate of MEA was enhanced by 49.71 % and 83.28 %. In conclusion, the introduction of ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 catalysts effectively catalyzed the CO 2 capture process, significantly enhancing the CO 2 capture quantity of MEA and ensuring energy-efficient regeneration of MEA. This study provides a novel approach for improving the performance of MEA in terms of capturing CO 2 .
