In this article, we reported a method for synthesizing cluster-like NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti)/BiOBr (NMT/B) Z type heterojunction composite materials with different content by using ionic liquid as bromine source assisted solvothermal method. In visible light , the photocatalytic activity of the materials was analyzed by degradation of tetracycline. Characterize the prepared composite material by XRD , FTIR, SEM, TEM, XPS , UV–vis diffuse reflection spectra (DRS). The result proved that the NH2-MIL-125(Ti) (NMT) nanosheets were tightly loaded on the BiOBr surface. NMT/B composite materials showed higher catalytic activity than monomer materials. The removal rate of TC reached 88% in 90min, which was 3 times and 5.7 times that of the monomer NMT and BiOBr monomer materials, respectively. In the catalytic process, –O 2 - and h + are the main active substances that degrade pollutants. This is proved by free radical capture experiments. It could be inferred that the improved photocatalytic activity of NMT/B composites was contributed to the good energy band structure and the formation of Z-type heterojunctions in close contact, which greatly facilitates the photogenerated carrier and hole migration and dissociation. Cycle experiment proved that the prepared composite material has excellent stability, which indicated that it had a good prospect in practical applications.

Heterojunction is considered as very promising material for various applications in photocatalysis. Herein, an efficient heterojunction photocatalyst N/Zn–TiO 2 @NH 2 -MIL-125 was successfully synthesized for photo-degradation organic oxidation by biological-templated method. The electron–hole pairs can be separated in space more efficiently because of heterojunction structure. Systematical analyses of spectroscopy and microscopy measurements revealed that N/Zn–TiO 2 @NH 2 -MIL-125 heterojunction materials exhibited hierarchical porous structure with high surface area of 366.02 m 2 g −1 and outstanding optical properties. Photocatalytic activity was investigated by degradating of rhodamine B (1000 µM) under visible-light irradiation. The N/Zn–TiO 2 @NH 2 -MIL-125 showed enhanced photocatalytic activity for RhB degradation, which is respectively about 1.81 and 1.97 times higher than that of the pristine N/Zn–TiO 2 and NH 2 -MIL-125. Various advanced spectroscopic characterizations were applied including photoluminescence, Mott–Schottky curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. A possible mechanism of enhanced photocatalytic oxidation activity for N/Zn–TiO 2 @NH 2 -MIL-125 composite under visible light irradiation was discussed.

The coexistence of inorganic and organic contaminants is a challenge for real-life water treatment applications. Therefore, in this research, we used NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) to evaluate the single adsorption of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) or Rhodamine B (RhB) in an aqueous solution and further investigate simultaneous adsorption experiments to compare the adsorption behavior changes. The main influencing factors, for example, reaction time, initial concentration, reaction temperature, and pH were studied in detail. In all reaction systems, the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models were well illuminated the adsorption progress of Cr(VI) and RhB. Thermodynamic studies showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. As compared to the single system, the adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) in the binary system gradually decreased as the additive amount of RhB increased, whereas the adsorption capacity of RhB in the binary system was expanded brilliantly. When the binary reaction system contained 100 mg/L Cr(VI), the removal rate of RhB increased to 97.58%. The formation of Cr(VI)-RhB and Cr(III)-RhB complexes was the cause that provided facilitation for the adsorption of RhB. These findings prove that the interactions during the water treatment process between contaminants may obtain additional benefits, contributing to a better adsorption capacity of co-existing contaminant.

MIL-125(Ti) is well known for having stable structure, tunable electron structure, and multiple active sites, which is commonly studied in the field of photocatalysis . In this work, a series of rare earth (RE) doped MIL-125(Ti) (RE=Ce, Pr, Tm, Dy, Eu, and Sm) are prepared via the one-step hydrothermal method . Notably, Pr-MIL-125 displays a significantly enhanced catalytic performance than other RE-doped MIL-125, resulting in a maximal CO and CH 4 yield of 13.30 and 0.87 µmol·g −1 ·h −1 , respectively, which are 2.53-fold and 4.14-fold of the pristine MIL-125. The layered morphology endows Pr-MIL-125 with more active sites and facilitates the reaction of photoreduction CO 2 . Furthermore, the promoted photoactivities attributed to Pr ion dopant can act as electron transfer bridge and suppress charge recombination. This work would provide insight and guidance for designing RE-MOF based photocatalysts and enhancing the performance of photoreduction CO 2 .

High photo-catalytic activity and stable recycling performance under high humidity are main hindering factors in practical applications of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) degradation. In-situ co-doping strategy of pyrrolic N/Zn was proposed to enhance surface charge separation and cycling stability of MIL-125(Ti) for degradation of vaporous acetaldehyde under highly humid conditions. Characterizations results show that pyrrolic N/Zn co-doped MIL-125(Ti) exhibited an integrated crystal structure and high surface area (1415 m 2 /g). The constructed Ti/Zn-N/O clusters narrowed band gap (from 3.40 to 1.85 eV) of MIL-125(Ti) and boosted electron conductivity. Also, it was proved to enhance surface alkalinity and hydrophobicity of MIL-125(Ti), which would strengthen MOFs selective adsorption towards CH 3 CHO and accelerated the transfer of degradation product CO 2 from catalytic active sites in MIL-125(Ti) under high humidity. As a result, synergistic effect of N/Zn co-doping exhibited an enhanced the ability of activating oxygen and H 2 O molecules into superoxide radical ( O 2 − ) and hydroxy radical ( OH), showing 10 times faster reaction kinetics for CH 3 CHO degradation under humid air compared to MIL-125(Ti). Moreover, co-dopant of N/Zn into MIL-125(Ti) has significantly promoted the recycling stability of MIL-125(Ti) under high humidity. According to the work, co-dopant elemental strategy to modify MOF surface can provide the synergistic effect for efficient degradation of aldehyde VOCs under humid conditions.

A novel strategy and design for ionic liquid (IL) assisted in-situ grafting of polyaniline (PANI) oligomers in NH 2 -MIL-125 was proposed to synthesize the defect-rich IL-PANI/NMIL(Ti) nanohybrids with an intimate interface for the superior photodegradation of CH 3 CHO. PANI was dissolved into small oligomers with the aid of IL [EMIM]BF 4 and was composited to NH 2 -MIL-125 by a strong interfacial connection through Ti-N bonds (XPS) with high dispersion and large surface area (BET = 1125 m 2 /g). Characterizations results showed that smart grafting of PANI-oligomers generated abundant defects (3.4-times, ESR) and intensified Lewis acid sites (1.2-times, CO-DRIFT) in IL-PANI/NMIL(Ti) compared to NH 2 -MIL-125. It promoted adsorptive interactions for aldehyde VOCs capturing, which in-turn increased the adsorption rate ( k a ) of CH 3 CHO. Smart grafting also improved the light absorption of IL-PANI/NMIL(Ti) from 500 to 800 nm, reduced band gap (1.7 eV), increased photo-current density (2.2-folds of pure MOF), enhanced O 2 − and OH radicals generation and improved e − /h + mobility. As a result, IL-PANI/NMIL(Ti) showed 11.4 and 4.2 times higher k a (0.262 min −1 ) of CH 3 CHO photodegradation kinetics than PANI and NH 2 -MIL-125, respectively, at 75% relative humidity (RH). The k a of CH 3 CHO degradation was steadily increased with increasing humidity (<80 RH%), indicating that H 2 O from humid air was beneficial for CH 3 CHO degradation. Furthermore, IL-PANI/NMIL(Ti) exhibited the excellent recycling stability compared to NH 2 -MIL-125, as only a 5% decrease in photocatalytic activity was observed after five cycling runs. Considering the excellent photostability and ultrafast photodegradation of CH 3 CHO, the current study opens up new perspectives in fabricating MOFs for a wide-range of practical applications.

Herein, a NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti)@Ag@AgCl (NM@Ag@AgCl) stacked core–shell heterojunction with Z-scheme carrier transfer mechanism was developed to fulfil the goal of synchronous reactions of CO 2 reduction and H 2 O oxidation. In detail, the NM@Ag@AgCl was obtained by in-situ loading the AgCl as the shell-inorganic semiconductor on the octahedral NM as the core-organic semiconductor, followed by in-situ transforming part of the AgCl shell into the plasmonic Ag nanoparticles using a photo-reduction method. As a result, the interface effects of core–shell architecture majorized by the Ag electronic mediator can favor the transmission of photogenerated carriers and reduce electron transport resistance; while the plasmonic Ag mediated Z-scheme mode with a giant internal electronic field provided a strong driving force to recombine the carriers with weak redox ability, reserving the carrier with strong redox ability on the NH 2 -MIL-125-core and AgCl-shell for the simultaneous reactions. The CO and H 2 O 2 yields of the optimal NM@Ag@AgCl were 6.02 and 5.43 μmol⋅g −1 ⋅h −1 , which were 3.31 and 4.02 times that of the NM, respectively. This study furnishes a novel thread for the design of core–shell organic–inorganic heterojunction with high interfacial charge transfer for realizing the simultaneous reactions.

In wastewater containing heavy metals, Cr(VI) is a potentially toxic metal, mainly derived from production and processing processes such as textile printing, dyeing, ore mining, battery applications, metal cleaning and electroplating. WO3 is widely used in photocatalytic degradation and reduction, and its utilization rate of visible light is high. However, the rapid recombination of photogenerated electron–hole pairs of WO3 limits its use. In this work, the composite material (WxMy) of WO3 and MIL-125 (Ti) was prepared by the ball milling method, and the catalyst was used to photocatalytically reduce Cr(VI). After using W90M10 as a photocatalyst for 50 min, the reduction rate of Cr(VI) can reach 99.2%, and the reduction rate is 2.3 times that of WO3. After 5 cycles of use, the reduction rate can still reach 91.3%. It is mainly due to the formation of a II-type heterojunction between WO3 and MIL-125 (Ti), which promotes the separation of photogenerated electron–hole pairs, thus improving the efficiency of photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI).

Photo-assist uranium extraction from fluorine-containing uranium wastewater by building semiconductor-plasma material heterostructure is a forward-looking strategy, which not only effectively accelerates F-U separation via the LSPR effect but also impacts the intensity of binding between U (VI) and site. Here, we developed an amino-rich Ag-NWs/NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) (AgNW/N-M(Ti)) hybrid nanowires with LSPR effect for photo-assist uranium extraction. Accordingly, the AgNW/N-M(Ti) hybrid nanowires presented 90.4% removal efficiency for U(VI) without a sacrificial agent at the U: F molar ratio of 1:20. By virtue of In-situ KPFM, we identify hot electrons generated over AgNW were transferred to amino-rich N-M(Ti) to efficiently reduce the U(VI) adsorbed on the N-M(Ti), which effectively enhances the excellent uranium removal performance of AgNW/N-M(Ti) hybrid nanowires. This strategy may open a paradigm for the development of advanced heterojunctions with the LSPR effect as catalysts for photo-assisted uranium extraction from fluorine-containing uranium wastewater.

Herein, novel nanozyme mimics MoO 3 /MIL-125-NH 2 were reported and conjugated with bacteriophages as a new electrochemical probe for high sensitivity and specific electrochemical detection of staphylococcus aureus . The excellent peroxidase-like activity of MoO 3 /MIL-125-NH 2 composites was attributed to the integration of MIL-125-NH 2 with MoO 3 , which can boost the generation of superoxide radicals (O• 2 – ) and thus promote the oxidation of TMB in the presence of H 2 O 2 . In this work, two bacteriophages named SapYZU04 and SapYZU10 were isolated from sewage samples by using staphylococcus aureus YZUsa12 as the host. In comparison, MoO 3 /MIL-125-NH 2 @SapYZU04 was selected as a recognition agent. The DPV current declined linearly with staphylococcus aureus YZUsa12 concentration in the range of 10 1 −10 8 CFU mL −1 , with a low detection limit of 16 CFU mL −1 (S/N = 3). 20 strains including 13 host strains and 7 non-host strains were used to evaluate the selectivity of the proposed sensor. Regardless of the differences in the degrees of lytic performance for phage SapYZU04, all selected host strains can be screened with merely the same DPV current. Host spectrum-oriented bacteriophage sensing is of great importance for the practical application of bacteriophage-based biosensors in the future.

Metal-organic framework (MOF) based heterojunctions offer a promising strategy for CO 2 photoreduction, contributing to carbon neutrality and environmental remediation. However, the precise design and control of these heterostructures remain critical challenges. Herein, we report the precise construction of a heterostructure by integrating 2D ZnIn 2 S 4 nanosheets with NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) for efficient CO 2 photoreduction in a sacrificial agent-free environment. A comprehensive investigation demonstrates robust interfacial interactions and work function differences between NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) and ZnIn 2 S 4 , facilitating the formation of an interfacial electric field and enabling the construction of an S-scheme heterojunction. The directional migration of photogenerated charge carriers effectively suppresses their recombination, retaining the strong oxidative and reductive potential of the heterostructure components. In-situ infrared spectroscopy provides concrete evidence that the S-scheme heterojunction significantly enhances the formation of key intermediates, which are crucial for CO generation. The optimized NMT-5@ZIS achieves a CO yield of 17.30 umol g -1 h −1 without sacrificial agents, representing 8.6 and 6.6-fold improvements over pristine NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) and ZnIn 2 S 4 , respectively. This work bestows an innovative insight into the construction of MOF-based S-scheme heterojunctions, opening new avenues for practical applications in energy storage and photocatalysis.

Developing new adsorbents with hierarchical pore and unsaturated adsorption sites are highly demanded to achieve rapid adsorption rate and good adsorption selectivity in purifying organic wastewater. We here reported a new Quasi-MIL-125(Ti) synthesized at 340 °C under air atmosphere and considered as a high-efficiency adsorbent for capturing cationic dyes. The morphology of the material is characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, etc. and the adsorption performance of Quasi-MIL-125(Ti) was systematically studied. Remarkably, it takes only 1 min to rapidly remove 20 mg L -1 MB or NR with 1 g L -1 Quasi-MIL-125(Ti), which is far superior to the previously reported materials. Adsorption isotherm shows that dyes adsorption on Quasi-MIL-125(Ti) follow a Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. The experimental maximum adsorption capacities were 109.3 mg g -1 for MB and 151.1 mg g -1 for NR, respectively. The hierarchical pores facilitate the diffusion and co-adsorption of different dye molecules. Adsorption mechanism reveals that the strong electrostatic attraction originated from the unsaturated Ti sites in Quasi-MIL-125(Ti) contributes to the ultra-fast adsorption behavior during cationic dyes chemisorption process. This study not only provides a promising prospect for the synthetic strategy of super-adsorbents, but also provides reference and theoretical guidance for practical dye wastewater treatment.
