The disposal of waste lithium batteries , especially waste separators, has always been a problem, incineration and burial will cause environmental pollution, therefore, the development of degradable and high-performance separators has become an important challenge. Herein, UiO-66-NH 2 particles were successfully anchored onto bacterial cellulose (BC) separators by epichlorohydrin (ECH) as a crosslinker, then a BC/UiO-66-NH 2 composite separator was prepared by vacuum filtration. The ammonia groups (−NH 2 ) from UiO-66-NH 2 can form hydrogen bonds with PF 6 − in the electrolyte, promoting lithium-ion transference. Additionally, UiO-66-NH 2 can store the electrolyte and tune the porosity of the separator. The lithium ion migration number (0.62) of the battery assembled with BC/UiO-66-NH 2 composite separator increased by 50 % compared to the battery assembled with commercial PP separator (0.45). The discharge specific capacity of the battery assembled with BC/UIO-66-NH 2 composite separator after 50 charge and discharge cycles is 145.4 mAh/g, which is higher than the average discharge specific capacity of 114.3 mAh/g of the battery assembled with PP separator. When the current density is 2C, the minimum discharge capacity of the battery assembled with BC/UiO-66-NH 2 composite separator is 85.3 mAh/g. The electrochemical performance of the BC/UiO-66-NH 2 composite separator is significantly better than that of the commercial PP separator. In addition, -NH 2 can offer a nitrogen source to facilitate degradation of the BC separators, whereby the BC/UiO-66-NH 2 composite separator could be completely degraded in 15 days.

In this work, metal organic framework (MOF) UiO-66 with strong stability in water was synthesized and used for the preconcentration of ultratrace arsenic in environment water and the precipitated UiO-66 was converted to slurry for direct determination with hydride generation-atomic fluorescence spectrometry (HG-AFS). Factors affecting the adsorption of arsenic by UiO-66, including pH, adsorption time, stability of UiO-66, masking agents together with the optimum conditions of HG-AFS were investigated in detail. The performance of UiO-66 for adsorbing arsenic was excellent at room temperature over a wide range of pH from 1 to 11, and adsorption efficiencies of > 95% could be achieved within only 5 min. Meanwhile, since conventional digestion process is avoided, the slurry sampling method is fast and convenient with greatly reduced matrix interference. Under the optimum conditions, it shows a good linear relationship between AFS intensities (I) and the concentrations of arsenic (C) (I = 547C + 61) with linear correlation coefficients better than 0.99. A precision of 3% (RSD%, n = 11) at 1 ng/mL and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.0002 ng/mL were obtained.

In this work, bismuth bromideoxide (BiOBr), a typical visible-light photocatalyst , was coated with Zr-based MOFs (UiO-66) to prepare the BiOBr@UiO-66 photocatalysts with different mole ratios by the solvothermal method. The core–shell BiOBr@UiO-66 photocatalysts with abundant activated sites was obtained due to the modification of UiO-66 on the surface of BiOBr. The structure and properties of the BiOBr@UiO-66 photocatalysts were characterized by several methods. The 30% BiOBr@UiO-66 photocatalysts exhibited the biggest photodegradation rate constant (k = 0.0669 min −1 ) for RhB under visible-light irradiation than pure BiOBr (k = 0.0281 min −1 ) and UiO-66 (k = 0.0041 min −1 ). Additionally, the 30% BiOBr@UiO-66 photocatalysts exhibited the enhanced photocatalytic activity and stable recyclability due to the effective electron-hole separation and synergistic effect. The photocatalytic mechanism of the BiOBr@UiO-66 photocatalysts for RhB, which contained a photosensitization process, was discussed with the trapping experiment of active species and the proposed energy band alignments.

UiO-66-NH 2 is a well-known metal organic framework with high porosity and surface area, and there are modifiable reactive amino groups in its structure, it has been applied in membrane modifications. A novel composite membrane (U1gFx) is successfully prepared by depositing UiO-66-NH 2 onto polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane, and subsequently grafting with perfluoroalkyl polyethoxy acetic acid (FPEOAA). The water contact angle of the modified membrane declines from 124.27° to 71.05°, and the under-water oil contact angle increases from 86.03° to 149.45°, indicating a good hydrophilic and oleophobic change. The modified membranes show enlarged porosity and water flux due to the introduction of UiO-66-NH 2 . The optimum membrane (U1gF10) shows excellent separation performance for various oil/water emulsions, including n -hexadecane, petroleum ether, dichloromethane and soybean oil. > 95 % oil rejection and up to 8081.9 L·m −2 ·h −1 of permeation flux are achieved under the vacuum filtration mode (0.085 MPa). While treating the n -hexadecane/water emulsion, all membranes show > 99 % oil rejection in six filtration cycles. Under a dead-end filtration mode, membrane U1gF10 gives a high relative flux recovery rate at 93 % under 0.1 MPa, its pure water flux still keeps as highly as 982.5 L·m −2 ·h −1 , even after three filtration cycles, indicating a good antifouling property and great engineering application potential.

Titanium in different amounts has been successfully doped into the zirconium-based metal–organic framework UiO-66 via an in situ synthesis method, resulting in a series of hybrid UiO-66-nTi MOFs. These materials maintain a relatively high crystallinity and excellent structural stability. The addition of titanium has a significant effect on the crystal size and morphology of UiO-66. The UiO-66-nTi MOFs exhibit a sphere-like crystal morphology with a smaller crystal size and a rougher surface compared to the octahedral UiO-66 crystals. The framework order and porosity of the UiO-66-nTi MOFs decrease slightly due to titanium doping. The UiO-66-nTi MOFs were studied as adsorbents for the removal of an organic dye from water. The results demonstrate that these hybrid materials have enhanced adsorption capacity for the organic dye Conge red in comparison with the parent UiO-66. UiO-66-2.7Ti with 2.7% titanium doping shows the highest adsorption capacity of 979 mg g−1, which is three times higher than that of the parent UiO-66. The strong electrostatic attraction between the positively charged surface of UiO-66-2.7Ti and the negatively charged Congo red molecules was identified as the main driving force for the high adsorption capacity.

The efficient dehydration of fructose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a crucial step in biomass valorization, requiring solid acids with precisely balanced Brønsted acidity. Defect engineering in Zr-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), such as UiO-66, is well known to enhance Lewis acidity; however, its impact on tailoring Brønsted acid sites remains insufficiently understood. Here, we demonstrate that defective UiO-66 possesses a dual-origin Brønsted acid system, comprising intrinsic μ3–OH groups and water molecules coordinated to defect-generated Lewis acidic Zr centers (Zr–H2O). The concentration of these Brønsted acid sites can be finely regulated by thermal activation treatment. A volcano-shaped dependence of catalytic activity on activation temperature is observed, with an optimum at 200 °C. At moderate activation temperatures below 200 °C, the removal of physisorbed water exposes both μ3–OH and Zr–H2O sites, maximizing Brønsted acid density and HMF yield. Activation beyond 200 °C reduces both types of Brønsted acid sites, resulting in diminished catalytic performance. This study reveals the cooperative effect of defect engineering and thermal activation in tuning the Brønsted acidity of MOFs, providing a rational strategy for designing highly selective catalysts for the sustainable production of platform chemicals.

In this work, a simple metal-organic framework (MOF) material, UiO-66-NH 2 , was prepared for the highly efficient separation of artemisinin (Art) and artesunate (Aru). Selective adsorption tests showed that UiO-66-NH 2 presented a much higher selectivity toward Aru than Art ( α Aru/Art = 40.74). The N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherm results of UiO-66-NH 2 indicated a suitable pore size to enable the free entry of Art and Aru. Contact angle analysis indicated that UiO-66-NH 2 is hydrophilic with the -NH 2 group, and can interact with the hydrophobic Aru through hydrogen bonding between the -NH 2 and -COOH groups, which is not possible with the hydrophobic Art. The selective adsorption of Aru onto UiO-66-NH 2 may be attributed to three factors: pore size, functional groups, and difference in hydrophobic/hydrophilic characteristics between the adsorbent and adsorbate. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were prepared using Aru as a template for selective adsorption experiments to verify the excellent selectivity of UiO-66-NH 2 . The adsorption amount (65.24 mg g −1 ) and selectivity factor ( α Aru/Art = 40.74) of UiO-66-NH 2 toward Aru were significantly better than those of the MIPs (2.039 mg g −1 and 3.072, respectively). The binding capacity and better selectivity of UiO-66-NH 2 provide evidence supporting the potential of MOF adsorbents for the separation of various analogous molecules.

The level of interleukin-8 (IL-8) in the body is an effective factor for the early diagnosis of acute tubular necrosis and oral tumor. In this work, a novel sandwich-like voltametric immunosensor (SVS) of IL-8 was constructed by preparing β-cyclodextrin/carbon nanotube (CD/CNT) to immobilize primary antibody (PAb) of IL-8 and UIO-66-NH 2 MOFs structure to immobilize second antibody (SAb) and methylene blue (Mb) probe. In this designed SVS, the prepared CD/CNT nanohybrid with large surface area and conductivity can immobilize PAb via simple host–guest recognition, and UIO-66-NH 2 provided an ideal platform to accommodate SAb and a large number of Mb molecules as signal-amplifier. In the existence of target IL-8, the current peak of Mb from the SVS assay increases with the increasement of IL-8 level. Through optimizing and adjusting various factors, a wide linearity (0.001–2.5 ng mL −1 ) and low analytical limit (0.2 pg mL −1 ) of IL-8 were realized, so it’s expected the developed SVS strategy has significant applications for the detection of IL-8.

Converting CO 2 into high-value-added products via “artificial photosynthesis” under mild conditions is a promising yet challenging strategy for developing efficient photocatalysts. This study reports a simple two-step solvothermal approach to fabricate the dual-metal–organic framework (MOF) nanocomposite NH 2 -UiO-66@PCN-224 (NU-66@PCN-224) with tightly integrated interfaces, which achieves efficient CO 2 to CO photocatalytic reduction under light irradiation. The epitaxially grown PCN-224, composed of Zr 6 clusters and tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (TCPP), serves as a shell layer and a visible light-absorbing antenna, thereby broadening the light absorption range of the composite material. Moreover, the tightly integrated interfaces of NU-66@PCN-224 enhance the mobility of photogenerated charge carriers, consequently enhancing its capability for CO 2 catalytic reduction. As a result, the combination of NU-66 and PCN-224 retains their individual advantages while achieving a synergistic enhancement of both adsorption and catalysis, further improving the photocatalytic performance. The as-prepared NU-66@PCN-224 catalyst exhibits outstanding photocatalytic performance, yielding 74.6 μmol g −1 h −1 of CO under irradiation without sacrificial agents or photosensitizers. This work demonstrates a straightforward and effective method for designing MOF-on-MOF photocatalysts with enhanced photoactivity.

The development of high-performance separator materials has become crucial with the ever-increasing demands for enhanced safety and energy density of lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage systems. Here, a novel high-safety functionalized separator was prepared by synthesizing a composite material that encapsulates phosphorus‑nitrogen-containing ionic liquid (P/N-IL) within NH 2 -UIO-66-Zr metal-organic framework (MOF), and then combining this composite with a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) P/N-IL@NH 2 -UIO-66/PVDF separator. This functionalized P/N-IL@NH 2 -UIO-66/PVDF separator significantly improves the flame-retardant performance of NCM811 batteries, effectively mitigating the risks of electrolyte combustion and explosion. Meanwhile, the porous structure of P/N-IL@NH 2 -UIO-66 material optimizes the Li + transport pathways, resulting in an increase in the ionic conductivity of NCM811 battery o 3.1 × 10 −4 S/cm (compared to only 3.4 × 10 −6 S/cm for the pure PVDF separator). The Li + transference number is also elevated to 0.68. Moreover, after 600 cycles at a 1C current density, the capacity retention rate reaches as high as 71 %, with an average coulombic efficiency of 96 %, substantially enhancing the electrochemical performance and cycling stability of the battery. This work offers a novel technological pathway for the development of high-safety, high-performance lithium-ion batteries, as well as for the application of ionic liquids and MOFs.

The accurate determination of β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG), a major dairy allergen, is essential for susceptible individuals' health. Here, a multimodal β-LG sensor was developed by utilizing the aptamer (Apt) to regulate the metal-organic framework UiO-66-TCPP’ functions. The prepared UiO-66-TCPP had both fluorescence and peroxidase activity. After adsorbing β-LG Apt, the catalytic activity of UiO-66-TCPP was enhanced through increased substrate affinity and electron transfer, while the fluorescence of 6-carboxyfluorescein-labeled Apt was quenched via multiple interactions with the material, and the fluorescence of UiO-66-TCPP itself remained unchanged. After binding to β-LG, Apt desorbed from UiO-66-TCPP surface, thereby restoring Apt fluorescence and lowering UiO-66-TCPP’ catalytic activity. Thus, a colorimetric/ratiometric fluorescence platform for β-LG sensing in dairy products was constructed with low limits of detection (16.19, 47.69 ng/mL). On-site visual detection was further achieved by RGB analysis on a smartphone. This study proposes novel approaches to creating multi-modal platforms for accurate food allergen determination.

This study demonstrated a new method for simultaneously improving the interfacial morphology and gas separation properties of mixed matrix membrane by designing a new type of nanocomposite filler (UiO-66-PEI@[bmim][Tf 2 N]). Nano-sized UiO-66 particle was post-synthetically modified with branched polyethyleneimine (PEI) and then was decorated with ionic liquid. The abundant amino groups in UiO-66-PEI improve the gas separation properties of the MMM due to the affinity between PEI and CO 2 . The ionic liquid acts as a lubricant agent, which is coated on the crystal surface improves the interface morphology of the MMM. Compared to pristine 6FO and MOF/6FO membrane, MOF@IL/6FO membrane has higher gas separation performance. Characterization and gas separation results indicated the UiO-66-PEI@ILs particles were homogeneous dispersed in 6FDA-ODA and promoted CO 2 transport by reversible reaction with amine groups. Consequently, the membrane sample containing 15 wt% loading of the UiO-66-PEI@[bmim][Tf 2 N] filler displayed an optimum CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 59.99 for CO 2 and CH 4 mixture gas.
