A feasible strategy by incorporation of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanocrystals on aramid nanofibers (ANFs) to prepare a flexible, strong, water-resistant ZIF-8/ANFs composite nanopaper with excellent gas adsorption capacity and good thermal stability was proposed. The morphologies, bonding behaviors between ZIF-8 and ANFs, gas adsorption capacity, thermal stability, mechanical properties and water resistance of the composite nanopaper were investigated. The result shows that the in situ synthesis of ZIF-8 nanocrystals in ANFs/DMSO solution could improve the bonding states and distribution homogeneity of ZIF-8 nanocrystals. The flexible ZIF-8/ANFs composite nanopaper exhibits excellent adsorption capability (specific surface area of 246.2 m 2 /g, total pore volumes of 0.106 cm 3 /g and 79.1 cm 3 /g of nitrogen adsorption quantity at relative pressure of 0.55), favorable water resistance (remains tensile strength after soaking in water for 48 h), impressive thermal stability (initial decomposition temperature of 485 °C), which is beneficial to broaden the application of ANFs in gas adsorption and separation field used in harsh conditions such as high temperature and humid environment.

BACKGROUND With the rapid industrial and urbanization development, a large amount of oily wastewater is generated from various sources. It is mutagenic and carcinogenic to human health and seriously affects the ecosystem. In this study PLA/ZIF-8@C600 nanofibers were prepared for oil adsorption. RESULTS Hybrid nanoparticles (ZIF-8@C600) of carbon black C600 and zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) with high specific surface area and porous structure were prepared by co-deposition and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FITR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy and contact angle measurement. Biodegradable composite nanofiber membranes of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and ZIF-8@C600 were manufactured by electrospinning. The SEM and contact angle results showed that the addition of ZIF-8@C600 could adjust the diameter, porosity, pore size and hydrophobicity of the composite electrospun nanofibers. The PLA/ZIF-8@C600 porous membranes had good oil sorption properties in oil–water mixture and emulsion. The oil adsorption capacity of the sample with 1 wt% ZIF-8@C600 was improved by ∼72.59% compared with that of pure PLA (13.5 g g −1 ), which demonstrated that the PLA/ZIF-8@C600 fibers were good candidates as oil sorbents. The adsorption kinetics of the membranes on paraffin liquid was in accordance with pseudo-second-order kinetics. CONCLUSION The addition of hybrid ZIF-8@C600 improved the hydrophobic properties and oil adsorption capacity of PLA/ZIF-8@C600 porous membranes. Because PLA is an environmentally friendly polymer, composite membranes based on it can avoid secondary pollution. Overall, these findings have good prospects for future treatment of oily wastewater. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry

A novel enzyme immobilization method employing metal–organic framework (MOF) encapsulation and macroporous resin adsorption was developed in this study. Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) was firstly encapsulated onto metal–organic frame structures (Zeolitic imidazole framework-8, ZIF-8) and further bonded to macroporous resin by physical adsorption. Under optimized immobilization conditions, the activity of the prepared immobilized lipase (CALB-ZIF-8@D101) determined via the methyl esterification of oleic acid was 38.4 U/mg. Compared with free lipase, the immobilized lipase exhibited improved thermal and operational stability and organic solvent tolerance. These results demonstrate that the immobilization method of ZIF-8 encapsulation and macroporous resin adsorption enhanced enzyme properties at a superior level.

Graphical Metal ion dopped-Candida rugosa lipase was encapsulated into ZIF structure through biomimetic mineralization, Mg 2+ doping has changed the conformation of CRL resulted in enhanced structural stability of CRL. CRL/Mg 2+ @ZIF-8 was used in biosensing of a protox-inhibiting herbicide in fruit samples with wide detection range, low detection limit and good recovery rate, and Catalytic activity of was two-fold higher than that of CRL@ZIF-8. Present work encapsulated metal ion dopped-Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) into ZIF structure through biomimetic mineralization and evaluated hydrolytic activity of the immobilized lipase using a biphasic system. Magnesium ion (Mg 2+ ) doped-CRL with high hydrolytic activity (237 % of free CRL) was successfully synthesized. Circular dichroism and fluorescence spectroscopy analysis revealed Mg 2+ doping has changed the conformation of CRL resulted in enhanced structural stability of CRL. The synthesized CRL/Mg 2+ @ZIF-8 had a mesoporous (3.88 nm) structure with good crystallinity. Mg 2+ doping increased the catalytic activity, substrates affinity (lower Km of 0.4102 mM) and catalytic stability of immobilized CRL. Catalytic activity of CRL/Mg 2+ @ZIF-8 (0.25±0.012 U) was two-fold higher than that of CRL@ZIF-8 (0.10±0.008 U). The synthesized CRL/Mg 2+ @ZIF-8 was used in biosensing of a protox-inhibiting herbicides (nitrofen) in fruit samples. CRL/Mg 2+ @ZIF-8 can be used for biosensing of nitrofen with wide detection range (0-50 μM), low detection limit (0.47 μM) and good recovery rate.

The property of the substrate takes a critical role in the separation performance of the thin-film composite (TFC) membrane. While, regulating the properties of the substrate by introducing metal–organic framework with tunable shapes for optimal TFC membrane has not been studied in-depth. In this work, a rationally regulated polyethersulfone substrate was designed by embedding ZIF-8 with three different shapes (spherical, hollow tube and flowerlike). Then, the TFC membranes were obtained by synthesising polyamide layer on the modified substrates. The results show that the modified substrates have positive effect on the water treatment performance, which was highly related to the addition amount and shapes of ZIF-8. Specifically, the hollow tube ZIF-8 modified TFC membrane exhibits the best water permeance of 2.22 L m -2 h −1 bar −1 (LMH bar −1 ) and excellent rejections (94.2 %, 99.7 %, 99.8 %, 99.9 % for NaCl, AO, MO and DR, respectively), which mainly derived from the increased channels and surface roughness. The findings provide a comprehensive insight of the shape-controlled substrate in the separation performance of the TFC membranes.

Porous liquids (PLs) with porosity and fluidity have shown great potential in gas separation. In this work, a type-III PLs were synthesized by mixing 2-Methylimidazole zinc salt (ZIF-8) nanoparticles as the main units and 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Bis(trifluoro-methanesulfonyl)-imide ([EMlm][NTf 2 ]) as the solvent. Molecular dynamics simulation evidenced the permanent, vacant, rigid pores of PLs. The prepared PLs were characterized, and their CO 2 uptake performances were obtained using a CO 2 static absorption system. ZIF-8 could significantly increase the CO 2 absorption capacity of the porous liquid, and when the mass fraction of ZIF-8 inside PLs was 10 wt%, the CO 2 absorption capacity increased by 143 %. Then, the CO 2 absorption characteristics of porous liquids were studied in different conditions, including temperature, pressure, and concentration of the ZIF-8. The CO 2 adsorption heat calculated by the Clausius–Clapeyron relation is −6.5 kJ/mol. The absorption rate of PLs was studied using the damping film theory. The CO 2 uptake capacity of the PLs decreased with temperature but increased with pressure and CO 2 concentration. Subsequently, the absorption-adsorption model was established to predict the CO 2 uptake capacity of PLs. The theoretical values agree with the experimental values, indicating that the developed absorption-adsorption model can predict the CO 2 uptake properties of PLs. Finally, analysis of the CO 2 cyclic performance of the PLs showed the PLs could be regenerated under negative pressure, and the CO 2 uptake capacity remained stable after five cycles, indicating the [EMIm][NTf 2 ]/ZIF-8 PLs could be applied in CO 2 capture.

A donor-acceptor (D-A) phenothiazine derivative(PZQ) was designed and synthesized. The PZQ was characterized utilizing infrared (FTIR) and 1 H/ 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance. The fluorescence spectra of PZQ were investigated in various solvents with differing polarities to demonstrate the presence of positive solvatochromism was attributed to the intramolecular charge transfer. It was observed that the Stokes’ shifts increased proportionally with the polarity of the solvents, exhibiting a maximum value of 11420 cm −1 in the highly polar solvent (ACN). Moreover, a porous composite (PZQ@ZIF-8) was fabricated by encapsulating PZQ into the metal-organic framework (ZIF-8) to respond to the organic solvent vapors. The PZQ@ZIF-8 was characterized using infrared, X-ray diffraction (XRD). The fluorescence spectra of the PZQ@ZIF-8 displayed significant solvent-dependent emission. Most importantly, the PZQ@ZIF-8 exhibited high reusability, and a specific response to methanol vapor. The emission intensity of the PZQ@ZIF-8 was correlated with methanol vapor concentration negatively, which was essential for the practical sensing application.

Smart metal–organic framework nanocarriers that respond to microenvironmental stimuli related to plant diseases can achieve the on-demand release of active ingredients to control diseases. The plant essential oil citral (CT) has significant biological activity against most pathogens but its poor stability limits its application in the field. To improve the applicability of plant essential oils, we aimed to construct a pH responsive essential oil delivery system (CT@ZIF-8) based on the zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 in this study. The high specific surface area of ZIF-8 enables CT@ZIF-8 remarkable loading capacity, and the metal–organic framework effectively delays the volatilization of CT. The results showed that CT@ZIF-8 was approximately 177 nm in size, had a stable nanostructure, and displayed a high pesticide loading efficiency (15.22%). The photodegradation rate of CT loaded in ZIF-8 under UV irradiation (48 h) was only 17.99%, much lower than that of CT alone (51.18%). The CT@ZIF-8 had a pH-responsive controlled release property, releasing CT from CT@ZIF-8 in a pH-dependent manner. The bioactivity results showed that CT@ZIF-8 had a lower EC50 than CT against three fungi (Magnaporthe oryzae, Botryosphaeria dothidea, and Fusarium oxysporum), enhancing the antifungal activity of CT. After 3 d of reagent treatment, only CT@ZIF-8 maintained good control against rice blast (75.76%) and soft rot (63.69%) infection. We have constructed a smart delivery system for essential oils, which provides a new pathway for the efficient application of plant-derived essential oils in the green control of plant diseases.

The significant adverse effects and chemoresistance accompanying single-agent chemotherapy reduce its therapeutic effectiveness. The synergistic treatment of osteosarcoma with chemotherapy and photothermal therapy (PTT) has attracted much interest recently due to the improved therapeutic effectiveness of anticancer drugs. In this research, we engineered a new 5-fluorouracil (5FU) by modifying ZIF-8 nanocomposites with polydopamine (PD) and loading them with the drugs. Here, modifying PD prevented the drug's explosive release, enhanced the nanocomposites' biocompatibility, and rendered it more successful at absorbing near-infrared (NIR) light. Excellent photothermal effects were also seen when the PD/5FU@ZIF-8 NCs were exposed to NIR light and employed as a drug-targeted delivery device. In vitro biological tests showed that PD/5FU@ZIF-8 NCs effectively lowered mitochondrial membrane potentials (MMPs) in 143B cells, resulting in death; the addition of photothermal properties improved the anticancer impact and reduced the chemotherapeutic drug dose. In addition, the optimized PD/5FU@ZIF-8 NCs (30 μg/mL) demonstrated enhanced photothermal transformation capability and aided the killing of tumor cells. These findings definitively demonstrate that PD/5FU@ZIF-8 NCs have an additive impact on chemo-photothermal therapy and remarkable biocompatibility; these results have strong potential for preclinical translation for osteosarcoma and other cancer cells.

Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanoparticles loaded with polysaccharides are excellent drug-delivery carriers with high loading capacity and pH sensitivity. This study describes the one-step encapsulation of Dendrobium huoshanense polysaccharides (DHP) in ZIF-8. The resultant PEG6000/ZIF-8@DHP complex exhibited drug release properties in acidic microenvironments, possessed water solubility, demonstrated high drug loading capacity, and displayed effective encapsulation. The effects of PEG6000/ZIF-8@ DHP administration on immunoregulation, antioxidant activities, and resistance against Aeromonas veronii in channel catfish were assessed. The study revealed that the PEG6000/ZIF-8@DHP complex stimulated cellular proliferation and phagocytosis, while also inducing the production of cytokines and nitric oxide. Additionally, the complex exhibited improved antioxidant properties and increased serum lysozyme and alkaline phosphatase activities. PEG6000/ZIF-8@DHP exhibited efficacy in vivo against Aeromonas veronii infection. These results indicate that PEG6000/ZIF-8@DHP is an efficient immunostimulant and vaccine adjuvant for enhancing immunity in channel catfish.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been considered as promising adsorbents for eliminating organic contaminants from wastewater. However, their inherent fragile and particulate form renders them challenging to handle and recycle in practical applications. Herein, millimeter-sized porous mullite beads composed of interlocked mullite whiskers were selected as the substrate materials. ZIF-8 was synthesized in situ on the mullite whisker to create millimeter-sized ZIF-8@porous mullite composite beads. After three cycles of in-situ growth, the ZIF-8 fully enveloped mullite whiskers, forming a homogeneous core/shell structure. Furthermore, the loading mass of ZIF-8 in ZIF-8@Mullite-3 beads reached 22.18 wt%. The BET surface area of the ZIF-8@Mullite-3 porous beads samples is 244.23 m 2 /g. The obtained millimeter-sized ZIF-8@Mullite porous beads exhibited satisfactory adsorption of Congo red (61.29 mg/g) and displayed exceptional reusability and stability. The CR removal efficiency of the ZIF-8@Mullite beads remained above 90%, even after the fifth reuse. The MOFs based beads with enhanced mechanical strength can be recycled and easily handed, highlighting their superiority compared to MOF powders in water treatment applications.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have great potential for a wide range of applications given their flexible structures and pore networks. Morphology control directly affects the properties and applications of MOFs. Unfortunately, governing the desired dimension and shape of MOFs is often limited by macrosystems that require organic solvents and additives while including time-consuming treatments. Microfluidics as a practical alternative provides precise manipulation of microscale liquid, has the potential to be a superior platform for directed crystal generation. Here we reported an AC electrokinetic (EK) mixing-assisted micro-synthesis method, which allowed the actively controlled synthesis of MOFs in aqueous phase. The effects of flow rate, molar-ratio of precursors, electric field intensity, and frequency on the synthesis of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) were investigated. Using this method, the particle size of ZIF-8 were varied, and the geometry were changed between flower-like polyhedra, cubes, spheres, and rhombic dodecahedra. Furthermore, the synthesized various ZIF-8 provide different levels of immobilization sites based on their morphological deviations. The flower-like cubic ZIF-8 had defect structures and exhibited a maximum horseradish peroxidase (HRP) loading of about 16%. The study provides a simple, green and reliable tuning strategy for breaking the single morphological form of MOFs to enhance their physicochemical properties.
