Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) hydrophobic membranes used in direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) processes were prone to fouling and wetting by oil and surfactants, which hampered their broad industrial application. In this work, a new Janus composite membrane was developed by modifying UiO-66-NH 2 with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a cross-linking agent and immobilizing the modified UiO-66-NH 2 on the PTFE membrane by vacuum filtration. By tuning the ratio of PVA to MOF , an optimally proportioned Janus membrane was obtained, and its performance was tested in DCMD experiments through the use of a sodium chloride feed solution containing hexadecane and sodium dodecyl sulfate. The top layer of this Janus membrane exhibited underwater oleophobicity (130.1 ± 0.96°) and hydrophilicity in the air (54.0 ± 0.92°), while the bottom layer is hydrophobic (132.3 ± 0.97°). Compared to the pristine PTFE membrane, the modified Janus membrane demonstrated promising resistance to both membrane fouling and wetting of oils and surfactants. The desalination rate of 99.99% was still achieved within 24 h with the conductivity remaining lower than 10 μS/cm and the flux maintained at 21.3 L/(m 2 ·h). As a result, the Janus composite membrane developed in this study was shown to be a prospective alternative for treating wastewater containing oily substances and surfactants in a resourceful manner.

A g-C3N4/NH2-MIL-88B(Fe)/CD@GO membrane (M2) was prepared by a simple vacuum filtration method. By embedding a Z-scheme heterojunction composite photocatalyst into graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets, not only can the water molecule transport channel be regulated, but the membrane can also be endowed with photocatalytic activity and membrane fouling is effectively alleviated. The pure water permeation flux of M2 (253.26 L m−2 h−1 bar−1) was 13 times that of the original GO membrane (18.83 L m−2 h−1 bar−1). What's more, even after 10 cycles, M2 still maintains excellent separation efficiency and flux. After six cycles, the rejection of Congo Red (CR), Malachite Green (MG) and Rhodamine B (RhB) by M2 was over 95%. At the same time, under the conditions of an extreme pH value and high salt concentration, the rejection of dye remained at the original level after six cycles. Therefore, the novel photocatalytic membrane has excellent separation performance, stability and photocatalytic activity, and can be used as a potential membrane for wastewater purification and environmental protection.

The unique properties of MOFs make them the best candidates for catalytic and photocatalytic applications. In this research, the NH 2 -UiO-66 material was prepared by solvothermal method , and different content of NH 2 -UiO-66 was added before the composite growth of Bi 2 S 3 and BiOBr nanomaterials to obtain the NH 2 -UiO-66/BiOBr/Bi 2 S 3 ternary composite material. In order to investigate the relationship between the structure and properties of the catalyst, XRD , FT-IR, SEM , HRTEM , UV–vis DRS, XPS and other characterization technologies were used to analyze the structure, morphology, optical properties of the samples, showing that NH 2 -UiO-66/BiOBr/Bi 2 S 3 have been successfully synthesized. Their photocatalytic performance was evaluated based on the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride and rhodamine B under visible light . The results show that 2% NH 2 -UiO-66/BiOBr/Bi 2 S 3 has better photocatalytic activity than other materials. Moreover, NH 2 -UiO-66/BiOBr/Bi 2 S 3 also demonstrated good photocatalytic reusability and stability. The formation of Bi 2 S 3 and BiOBr heterojunctions and the introduction of NH 2 -UiO-66 with more active sites increase the carrier performance and separation efficiency. Then the valence band and conduction band values of the semiconductor material are calculated through the M-S curve, combined with the forbidden bandwidth deduced by UV–vis DRS and the experimental results of radical trapping, a double Z-type electron transfer mechanism suitable for this system is inferred. Finally, taking RhB as an example, the degradation path of dye pollutants was studied.

NH 2 -UiO-66 is recently regarded as a potential photocatalyst for CO 2 reduction reaction due to the high CO 2 adsorption capacity, high UV–vis light absorption capacity and chemical stability. Aiming to further improve its activity, in this paper, a composite of NH 2 -UiO-66 and CeCO 3 OH (NU/CC) was fabricated via an in-situ growth method of NH 2 -UiO-66 on CeCO 3 OH. The X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electron spin resonance (ESR) characterizations indicated that a direct Z-scheme heterojunction between CeCO 3 OH and NH 2 -UiO-66 was formed via the formation of O-Zr-CO 3 2- bond. The CO 2 adsorption measurement, UV–vis DRS spectra and photo(electro)chemical measurements indicated that the optimal composite NU/CC-1.6–90 exhibited the higher CO 2 adsorption capacity, stronger respond and wider absorption range to UV–vis light, as well as the significantly delayed recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, compared with other control samples. As a result, NU/CC-1.6–90 delivered the obviously enhanced photocatalytic activity of CO 2 to both CO and CH 4 , and the rate of electron consumption reached 152.8 μmol/g h, 5-fold of that of NH 2 -UiO-66.

Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) is one of the most lethal pathogenic bacteria. Although the traditional microbial culture method has high sensitivity and selectivity for the diagnosis of L. monocytogenes, it is time-consuming and not suitable for on-site detection. A rapid, convenient and visualized on-site detection method is particularly needed. In this work, Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2 was prepared for both magnetic separation and lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) for the detection of L. monocytogenes by taking advantage of the easy separation of the magnetic core Fe3O4 and the high surface area of the outer layer UiO-66-NH2. Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2 with a high surface area and good water-dispersibility and optical properties was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal process. It could directly adsorb on the surface of target bacteria and form Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2-bacteria conjugates, without the labeling of an antibody. After magnetic separation and concentration, the Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2-bacteria conjugates were detected by the antibody on the test line of the LFIA strip, resulting in a visible orange band. The capture efficiency and LFIA detection of Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2 were optimized in this study. Under the optimal conditions, a good linear correlation between the test line intensity and the concentration of L. monocytogenes was obtained in the range of 105–108 CFU mL−1, and the limit of detection was 2.2 × 106 CFU mL−1 by the naked eye. The Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2-based LFIA strip showed strong specificity for L. monocytogenes, and the detection took 45 min without culture enrichment. Therefore, the proposed Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2-based strip showed the advantages of simple synthesis, being label-free, low cost, good selectivity and convenience.

Increasing the stability of materials and affinity to the target has always been the pursuit. In this paper, the strategy of partially fluorinated metal–organic framework materials (MOFs) was introduced into the field of sample preparation for the first time, and the potential of this method to prepare materials with improved stability and extraction performance against environmental pollutants was verified. The UiO-66-(NH 2 ) 0.58 (4F) 0.42 coating was successfully prepared on carboxyl functionalized stainless steel fiber through covalent bonding method. Owing to the introduction of F element, the UiO-66-(NH 2 ) 0.58 (4F) 0.42 coating exhibited enhanced metal node acidity, hydrophobicity and stability, thus its extraction performance for phthalates (PAEs) was higher than that of pure UiO-66-NH 2 and commercial fiber coatings. The UiO-66-(NH 2 ) 0.58 (4F) 0.42 -coated fiber was coupled with GC–MS to detect PAEs, and the wide linear range (0.03–1000 ng/L), good correlation coefficients (0.9732–0.9998) and low detection limit (0.0039–0.016 ng/L) were obtained. The established method had also been successfully applied to detection of trace PAEs in plastic bags packed milk and bottled liquor with satisfactory recoveries (83.7 ± 5.1–118.1 ± 4.1 %). This research provides a new path for the preparation of environmental pollutant enrichment and removel materials with good performance.

As an essential part of the performance improvement of lithium metal batteries, the acquisition of dense (LiF-rich solid electrolyte interphase (SEI)) has always been an urgent problem to be solved. Herein, we synthesized Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIFs) modified by two different functional groups (–NH 2 , –CH 3 ) and used them as the fillers of polyethylene oxide (PEO) composite solid electrolytes to explore the catalytic effect of groups on LiF generation at the Li/electrolytes interface. In a LiFePO 4 ||SPE||Li cell test, the PEO-ZIF-NH 2 with LiF-rich SEI exhibits enhanced cycling performance, which was 3.8 times longer than that of PEO-ZIF-CH 3 . The formation mechanism of LiF-rich SEI was investigated using first-principles calculation, revealing that ZIFs-NH 2 makes the C–F bond in TFSI – longer compared with ZIFs-CH 3 , which leads to easier breakage of the C–F bond and promoted the formation of LiF. The simple design idea of using organic catalysis to generate more stable SEI provides a new aspect for preparing high-performance lithium metal batteries.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit highly designable properties and have been used in wide applications. To further improve their performance, the modification of MOFs is an effective method. However, the modification process is usually complicated. Besides, the sustainable use of MOFs is difficult to achieve due to the complicated recycling treatment. Herein, we designed a polyethyleneimine (PEI)-modified NH2-MIL-101(Al) composite (PEI@NH2-MIL-101(Al)). This composite showed excellent dye removal performance of methyl orange (MO, 89.4%) and Direct Red 80 (DR80, 99.8%). Remarkably, the dye removal application of PEI@NH2-MIL-101(Al) also acted as a modification process toward flame retardant application. Thus, the dye-adsorbed PEI@NH2-MIL-101(Al) composite (MO-PEI@NH2-MIL-101(Al) and DR80-PEI@NH2-MIL-101(Al)) was sustainably used as an effective flame retardant for an epoxy resin (EP) at low additions (4.0 wt %). The limiting oxygen values of EP/MO-PEI@NH2-MIL-101(Al) and EP/DR80-PEI@NH2-MIL-101(Al) increased to 26.5 and 26.7%, respectively. The heat release and the smoke production of dyes-PEI@NH2-MIL-101(Al)/EP were greatly reduced compared with those of EP. This strategy provides a simple and effective modification method for MOFs. Meanwhile, the modified MOF composite can achieve sustainable application, giving full play to the advantages of MOFs.

The emission of organic dye wastewater poses a great threat to the ecological environment. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare environment-friendly photocatalytic materials with high photocatalytic performance to degrade organic dyes. In this work, a new composite photocatalyst SnS 2 /NH 2 -MIL-125 (Ti) was formed by loading the multiphase SnS 2 of quantum dots (QDs) and hexagonal nanodiscs (NDs) on the NH 2 -MIL-125 (Ti) through one-step hydrothermal method , then used it to remove 40 mg/L Rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light . Compared with SnS 2 and NH 2 -MIL-125 (Ti), the photocatalytic degradation activity of the 12 wt% SnS 2 /NH 2 -MIL-125 (Ti) was enhanced by 2.4 and 2.1 times respectively, reaching 90.5%, after 80 min of visible light irradiation. The four times recycling test shows that this photocatalyst has outstanding stability and durability. Through analysis, NH 2 -MIL-125 (Ti) modified SnS 2 can improve visible light absorption, provide more active sites and inhibit photoelectron-hole recombination, thus enhancing photocatalytic activity . Superoxide radical (•O 2 − ) and hole (h + ) were determined to be the key active substances in the process by the reaction substance capture experiment. The photodegradation mechanism of RhB is also investigated and studied in detail. This novel multiphase SnS 2 /NH 2 -MIL-125 (Ti) material provides a new perspective for the design of organic-inorganic composite photocatalysts with excellent performance and improved stability, and has potential application in environmental purification.

Conductive hydrogel-based wearable strain sensors with tough, stretchable, self-recoverable, and highly sensitive properties are highly demanded for applications in electronic skin and human–machine interface. However, currently, hydrogel-based strain sensors put forward higher requirements on their biocompatibility, mechanical strength, and sensitivity. Herein, we report a poly(vinyl alcohol)/phytic acid/amino-polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (PVA/PA/NH2-POSS) conductive composite hydrogel prepared via a facile freeze–thaw cycle method. Within this hydrogel, PA acts as a cross-linking agent and ionizes hydrogen ions to endow the material with ionic conductivity, while NH2-POSS acts as a second cross-linking agent by increasing the cross-linking density of the three-dimensional network structure. The effect of the content of NH2-POSS is investigated, and the composite hydrogel with 2 wt % NH2-POSS displays a uniform and dense three-dimensional (3D) network microporous structure, high conductivity of 2.41 S/m, and tensile strength and elongation at break of 361 kPa and 363%, respectively. This hydrogel is biocompatible and has demonstrated the application as a strain sensor monitoring different human movements. The assembled sensor is stretchable, self-recoverable, and highly sensitive with fast response time (220 ms) and excellent sensitivity (GF = 3.44).

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunosensor was designed to detect N 1 -methyladenosine (m 1 A), where BiVO 4 /g-C 3 N 4 heterojunction was employed as photoactive material, polyamidoamine (PAMAM) and 4-carboxyphenylboronic acid (CPBA) were used as m 1 A antibody immobilization matrix, and Ti-based metal-organic framework encapsulated heterostructure of TiO 2 @NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) was adopted as signal amplification. Due to the interaction between TiO 2 and phosphate, TiO 2 @NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) was captured after immunoreaction between m 1 A and its antibody, which can further improve the detection sensitivity with increased PEC response. Under optimal experimental conditions, this method presented wide dynamic range (0.05–35 nM) with the low determination limit (16.7 pM, S/N = 3). This detection strategy showed good detection reproducibility, stability and selectivity. This method was applied to assess the effect of antibiotics on m 1 A content in the leaves, stems and roots of rice seedlings.
