In this study, ZIF-8 modified fluorinated graphene composite (FG@ZIF-8) was innovatively prepared and used as a novel functional filler to improve the anticorrosion performance of epoxy coating on Q235 carbon steel. The morphology and structure of FG@ZIF-8 composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray powder diffractometer (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) tests. The results showed that the structure and morphology of the composites largely depended on the composition ratio of FG and ZIF-8. The mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of FG@ZIF-8 modified coatings were also investigated. The unique two-dimensional sheet structure and insulation of FG in the FG@ZIF-8 filler can not only inhibit the penetration of corrosive media but also discourage electron migration effectively on the interface of coating/matrix during the electrochemical reaction. Meanwhile, the chemical cross-linking between the amine groups in ZIF-8 and the epoxy group increases the degree of densification of the coatings. Besides, the 2-methylimidazole from the dissolution of ZIF-8 on FG@ZIF-8 will also inhibit the corrosion reaction. These advantages endow the FG@ZIF-8 modified epoxy coatings an excellent long-term corrosion resistance. Our findings may inspire the development of new graphene-based materials with superior protective properties for metallic materials.

Metal-organic framework membranes have shown great potential for efficient separation applications. However, unavoidable grain boundary defects and the inconstant pore size due to framework flexibility hinder the application of MOF membranes for gas separation. Herein, low-crystallinity ZIF-8/dcIm-x membranes are synthesized via fast current-driven synthesis. The competitive coordination of 4,5-dichloroimidazole (dcIm) linker leads to the formation of a low-crystallinity MOF with reduced grain boundary defects for better gas separation performance. Meanwhile, the in-situ substitution of the mIm linker by dcIm narrows the pore size and transforms the ZIF-8 structure in the stiffened Cm polymorph, allowing precise CO 2 sieving. Consequently, the low-crystallinity ZIF-8/dcIm-14 membrane exhibits a promising CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 32.4 with a CO 2 permeance of 1.73 × 10 −8 mol m −2 s −1 Pa −1 , which surpasses other membranes. Furthermore, the membrane presents a remarkable pressure resistance up to 3 bar and stable temperature-swing operation between room temperature and 125 °C over 120 h.

The incorporation of inorganic fillers into poly(ethyleneoxide)(PEO)-based solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) is well known as a low-cost and effective method to improve their mechanical and electrochemical properties. Porous zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is firstly used as the filler for PEO-based SPEs in this work. Due to the introduction of ZIF-8, an ionic conductivity of 2.2 × 10 −5 S/cm (30 °C) is achieved for the composite SPE, which is one order of magnitude higher than that of the pure PEO. ZIF-8 also accounts for the broader electrochemical stability window and lithium ion transference number (0.36 at 60 °C) of the composite SPE. Moreover, the improved mechanism of ZIF-8 to the composite SPE is investigated by zeta potential and Fourier transform infrared spectrograph characterizations. The stability at the composite SPE/lithium interface is greatly enhanced. The LiFePO 4 ||Li cells using the composite SPE exhibit high capacity and excellent cycling performance at 60 °C, i.e., 85% capacity retention with 111 mA·h/g capacity retained after 350 cycles at 0.5 C. In comparison, the cells using the pure PEO show fast capacity decay to 74 mA·h/g maintaining only 68 capacity. These results indicate that the PEO-based SPEs with ZIF-8 are of great promise for the application in solid-state lithium metal batteries.

In this study, a facile and scalable in situ growth method was used to synthesize ZIF-8@GO composites. The obtained ZIF-8@GO were blended with a CO 2 -philic, comb copolymer yielding a series of mixed matrix membranes (MMMs), which were evaluated for their performance in separation of CO 2 /N 2 . The effect of reaction time for ZIF-8@GO composites on gas separation performance was systematically investigated. Pure and mixture gas permeation tests indicated that MMM with ZIF-8@GO by in situ growth for 6 h exhibited the largest improvement (CO 2 permeability: 475 Barrer and CO 2 /N 2 selectivity: 58.2) compared with pure polymers, with the overall CO 2 /N 2 separation performance exceeding the 2008 polymer upper bound. Our strategy that the in situ growth of ZIF-8 on GO provides an effective way to design MMMs with well filler dispersion, structural features and separation performance.

Electrochemical reduction of CO 2 into value-added chemicals is a promising way for carbon neutrality while hindered by the low activity and selectivity of electrocatalysts. Herein, a ZIF-8 modified silver nanowire (AgNW) was contracted and used as an efficient electrocatalyst for CO 2 reduction. The optimized ZIF-8/AgNW catalyst exhibited high CO selectivity with a faradic efficiency of CO (FE CO ) > 93% within the −1.0 to −1.3 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). It also achieved a high CO partial current density of 13.3 mA·cm −2 and demonstrated good stability over 10 hours in KCl electrolyte. Electrochemical results suggested that the synergistic effect between AgNWs and ZIF-8 enhanced the catalytic performance. Moreover, KCl as an electrolyte was found to be superior to KHCO 3 for the ZIF-8/AgNW catalyst.

8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum/nano-TiO 2 composites were prepared via in situ. In order to make a better combination of the two component, Octavinyl-T8-silsesquioxane (8-vinyl POSS) was introduced into the composite system . The structure and properties of the samples were characterized by XRD , SEM, XPS , UV–visible absorption, Fluorescence spectra and Time-resolved emission-decay. These results show both β-phase and γ-phase of Alq 3 exist in the composite products. Meanwhile, the addition of nano-TiO 2 and 8-vinyl POSS does not change the crystalline and structure of as-prepared Alq 3 . Interestingly, however, XPS spectra shows that two new kinds of interaction forces emerge after the addition of 8-vinyl POSS, owing to the formation of Al–O–Si and Si–O–Ti bond, presumably. Besides, the emission intensity of Alq 3 /nano-TiO 2 and Alq 3 /8-vinyl POSS/nano-TiO 2 increases by 22% and 33%, respectively. The addition of TiO 2 and 8-vinly POSS will not affect the position of emission peak, but will increase the transmission efficiency in electron–hole pairs. In the meantime, surprisingly, the modified Alq 3 has a longer lifetime than as-prepared Alq 3 .

To improve the photocatalytic activity of Bi 2 WO 6 , ZIF-8 was successfully introduced with the in-situ growth for the first time. The addition of ZIF-8 effectively inhibited the recombination of photogenerated electron–hole pairs with further improved electron utilization efficiency. The superoxide anion, .O 2 − , generated, greatly improved the photocatalytic activity. The performance of Bi 2 WO 6 /ZIF-8 in the photodegradation of tetracycline (TC) was studied under different conditions, including the proportions of ZIF-8, the dosage of catalyst, and the concentration of TC. The results indicated that 10 mg of B/Z/5/1 offered the best photocatalytic activity under UV light, achieving 97.8% degradation of TC (20 mg/L) within 80 min. The measured rate constant (k) for TC degradation was almost 3 times that of pure Bi 2 WO 6 . The effects of pH, HA, and inorganic anions on the degradation of TC were also studied for the simulated real water. Further, B/Z/5/1 could be reutilized up to five cycles without reduction of the catalysis performance. Therefore, the Bi 2 WO 6 /ZIF-8 heterojunction composite material can be utilized as an efficient photocatalyst for remediation of environmental pollution.

Deeply understanding the structure and electrical properties of ZIF-8 is very important due to many practical applications of porous materials . We present the crystal structure and microstructure details of ZIF-8 prepared in three different solvents. The solvents play an important role on grain growth of ZIF-8, furthermore, a small fraction of monoclinic phase can be found in the ZIF-8s prepared in water or in amonium hydroxide. Radio-frequency dielectric and impedance spectra studies of dynamic dielectric response of ZIF-8s indicate two additional dielectric relaxation processes associated with the introduced water molecules in as-prepared samples. The dielectric response can be described by the combination of the dc conductivity, the universal dielectric response, the Cole-Cole relation and intrinsic response. The results exhibit the solvents make an important influence on the electrical properties due to different contents water in ZIF-8s. Our results will pave a way to modify the dielectric property of ZIF-based dielectrics in radio-frequency applications.

The practical application of ZIF-8 crystals is commonly limited by their powder form. In this work, natural balsa wood sheets were employed as substrate for dispersing and shaping ZIF-8 particles. By in situ growth method, ZIF-8 layer was coated on the aligned wood channels to construct ZIF-8/wood composites with a hierarchical structure. A good affinity and interfacial compatibility between ZIF-8 and wood lumens was observed. The wood channels enable high-speed water transport and the ZIF-8/wood composites were integrated into filtration systems for continuous wastewater treatment. At a 7.9 wt% ZIF-8 loading, the three-layered ZIF-8/wood filter (ZW-2) presented an effective treatable volume of 800 mL of 10 mg L −1 Cu 2+ solution. Moreover, ZW-2 exhibited an excellent recyclability and reusability. Such wood-based composite is renewable, low cost, and holds great potential for practical environmental remediation.

Liver fibrosis (LF) is one of the major diseases that threaten human health. Until now, no effective drugs have been approved for clinical anti-liver fibrosis treatment. In this study, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) lipid nanoparticles loaded with pirfenidone (PFD) and modified with vitamin A (VA) were constructed (VA-PFD@ZIF-8@DMPC NPs). PFD was embedded in ZIF-8 by the “one-pot” method, and the prepared ZIF-8 had a small particle size (84.3 nm) and high drug loading (54.46%). Moreover, the inherent pH sensitivity of ZIF-8 makes it stable in a normal physiological environment and collapsed in an acidic environment, thus controlling drug release and preventing drug leakage. Besides, the phospholipid layer makes the nano-drug delivery system dispersible and improves its biocompatibility . More importantly, VA is modified on the surface of nanoparticles (NPs), which can target the highly expressed retinol-binding protein receptor (RBPR) on the surface of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), thereby accurately increasing the local drug concentration at the site of LF. In vivo experiments showed that VA-PFD@ZIF-8@DMPC NPs can reduce liver injury, improve the degree of LF, and exert specific therapeutic effects on LF. In conclusion, this nano-delivery system may become a novel and effective anti-liver fibrosis treatment.

Facile construction of multifunctional fabrics with durability still remains a challenge in the past decade. In this work, we report a facile fabrication of non-fluorinated superhydrophobic and antibacterial cotton fabric surfaces via in situ growing zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanocrystals on cotton fibers under room temperature condition and subsequently coating with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). The surface morphology and chemical composition of treated fabric have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The as-prepared cotton fabric showed superhydrophobic property with a water contact angle (WCA) of 151.36° and a sliding angle of 3.6° and excellent antibacterial properties against E. coli and S. aureus. The durability of the superhydrophobic and antibacterial fabrics was evaluated by repeated washing and abrasion cycles. The as-prepared fabrics retained their excellent antibacterial property and superhydrophobicity after 300 cycles of abrasion and 5 cycles of washing. The robustness of superhydrophobicity and antibacterial activity made this method has wild application prospects in biomedical field in the future.

This study enhanced the corrosion protection of zinc molybdate (ZnMoO4) in epoxy coatings by integrating ZIF-8 to form a Z-type nano heterojunction. The heterojunction leveraged the light absorption properties of organic ligands within ZIF-8 to significantly promote the excitation and separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers, thereby enhancing the photocathodic protection capability of the coating. It also utilized a cocrosslinking curing process between the epoxy functional groups and the organic functional groups of ZIF-8, resulting in a notable improvement in coating density. Furthermore, the metal–organic framework (MOF) effectively anchored the coating, preventing the recurrence of defects due to molybdate dissolution, thus enhancing durability. In synergy with the molybdate passivation film, it effectively hindered the corrosive attack of ions adsorbed on the metal substrate surface, thereby contributing to the suppression of chemical corrosion. Meanwhile, the compositing of MOF significantly enhanced the hydrophobicity of the material. Experimental data demonstrated that the impedance of the ZIF-8/ZnMoO4 composite coating achieved a remarkable increase to 226.0 and 208.3% compared to pure epoxy and ZnMoO4 coatings, which provided insights into expanding the compatibility and synergistic protective performance of molybdate-based corrosion-resistant materials by constructing heterojunctions between organic and inorganic materials.
