Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) are anticipated to meet the demand for high energy density, but the growth of lithium dendrites seriously hinders its practical application. Herein, we constructed a kind of composite separator (ZIF-90@PP) consisting of zeolite imidazole framework-90 (ZIF-90) and polypropylene (PP) to promote the uniform deposition of Li+and inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites. The aldehyde groups interacting with TFSI−and the nitrogen-containing negative groups attracting Li+of ZIF-90 can facilitate the dissociation of LiTFSI to release more Li+, thus alleviating the influence of space charge near the electrode surface and accelerating the transfer of Li+. Not only does the excellent electrolyte wettability of ZIF-90 enhance the electrolyte retention capacity of the separator, but the orderly nano-channels in ZIF-90 also restrict the free migration of anions and homogenize the distribution of Li+. Consequently, the functional separator achieves a long-term stable Li plating/stripping cycling for over 780 h at 2 mA cm−2. Moreover, an impressive average coulombic efficiency of 98.67% at 0.5 C after 300 cycles is realized by Li || LFP full cells based on ZIF-90@PP with a capacity retention rate of 71.22%. The high-rate and long cycling performance of the modified Li || LFP cells further demonstrates the advantages of the ZIF-90@PP composite separator.

Bacterial-infected skin wounds caused by trauma remain a significant challenge in modern medicine. Clinically, there is a growing demand for wound dressings with exceptional antibacterial activity and robust regenerative properties. To address the need, this study proposes a novel multifunctional dressing designed to combine efficient gas exchange, effective microbial barriers, and precise drug delivery capabilities, thereby promoting cell proliferation and accelerating wound healing. This work reports the development of a 3D-printed hydrogel scaffold incorporating flavanone (FLA)-loaded ZIF-8 nanoparticles (FLA@ZIF-8 NPs) within a composite matrix of κ-carrageenan (KC) and konjac glucomannan (KGM). The scaffold forms a stable dual-network structure through the chelation of KC with potassium ions and intermolecular hydrogen bonding between KC and KGM. This dual-network structure not only enhances the mechanical stability of the scaffold but also improves its adaptability to complex wound environments. In mildly acidic wound conditions, FLA@ZIF-8 NPs release Zn 2+ and flavanone in a controlled manner, providing sustained antibacterial effects and promoting wound healing. In vivo studies using a rat full-thickness infected wound model demonstrated that the FLA@ZIF-8/KC@KGM hydrogel scaffold significantly accelerated wound healing, showcasing its superior performance in the treatment of infected wounds.

The accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within the bone marrow microenvironment leads to diminished osteogenic differentiation and heightened lipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells residing in the bone marrow, ultimately playing a role in the development of osteoporosis (OP). Mitigating ROS levels is a promising approach to counteracting OP. In this study, a nanozyme composed of magnesium-based zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (Mg-ZIF) was engineered to effectively scavenge ROS and alleviate OP. The results of this study indicate that Mg-ZIF exhibits significant potential in scavenging ROS and effectively promoting osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Additionally, Mg-ZIF was found to inhibit the differentiation of BMSCs into adipose cells. In vivo experiments further confirmed the ability of Mg-ZIF to mitigate OP by reducing ROS levels. Mechanistically, Mg-ZIF enhances the differentiation of BMSCs into osteoblasts by upregulating lipid metabolic pathways through ROS scavenging. The results indicate that Mg-ZIF has potential as an effective therapeutic approach for the treatment of osteoporosis.

To improve the conversion rate of carbon dioxide (CO2) to methane (CH4) in a microbial electrochemical system (MES), the zeolitic imidazolate framework ZIF-67(Co) with electron storage properties was first grown in situ on MIL-100(Fe) with excellent CO2 adsorption properties by a hydrothermal method. The obtained binary core–shell MIL@ZIF material was then adsorbed by carbon felt on a cathode to grow biofilms composed of electroactive microorganisms for characterization and testing in an MES. This system exhibited a CH4 production rate of 0.42 mmol LR–1 d–1, along with an impressive faradaic efficiency of 96.4%. Three-dimensional excitation–emission matrix spectra of extracellular polymeric substances indicated that those containing higher contents of humic acid shifted electron pairs and converted redox states to facilitate electron transfer. MIL@ZIF enriched hydrogenotrophic methanogens and electrogenic bacteria in microbial communities with enhanced gene expression of electrically conductive pili and cytochrome C to strengthen interspecies electron transfer. MIL@ZIF enhanced CO2 adsorption and electron storage, reinforcing electron transfer chains and boosting CH4 yield by a factor of 10.7.

Fresh strawberries are easily contaminated by microorganisms after picking. Therefore, how to effectively store and keep fresh strawberries has been a hot topic for scientists to study. In this study, we prepared a leaf shaped metal organic framework nanomaterial loaded with quercetin (Quercetin@ZIF-L) at first, which can achieve effective loading of quercetin (96%) within 45 min and has a controlled release effect under acidic conditions. In addition, by cleverly combining satellite graphene oxide @ silver nanoparticles (GO@AgNPs) with slow precipitation performance, Quercetin@ZIF-L/GO@AgNPs nanocomposite film with larger pore size and larger specific surface area was prepared by scraping method. The characterization data of water flux , retention rate, flux recovery rate and water vapor permeability show that the composite film has good physical properties. The experiment of film packaging showed that the fresh life of strawberry could be extended from 3 to 8 days, which significantly improved the storage and freshness cycle of strawberry. At the same time, the metal migration test proved that the residual amount of silver ion in strawberry met the EU standard and zinc ions are beneficial to the health, enriching the types of high-performance fresh-keeping materials and broadening the application.

Multi-responsive drug-delivery systems have been widely explored to enable specific delivery to target sites. Here, interleukin-4 (IL-4), an anti-inflammatory cytokine, is first encapsulated in situ inside a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) to form IL-4@ZIF-8, which is subsequently coated with a diselenide block copolymer to obtain IL-4@ZIF-8@Se-Se-polymer. This delivery system enables redox-responsive release of IL-4 by the diselenide copolymer and a pH-triggered release by ZIF-8. Moreover, IL-4 release is precisely controlled stepwise by the stimuli response, with the dissociation of the diselenide copolymer, and breakdown of the ZIF-8 structure. The targeted release property of the IL-4@ZIF-8@Se-Se-polymer endows the materials with efficient macrophage immune regulation, as systematically demonstrated in vitro. This study provides an effective example of the delivery and on-demand release of IL-4, and may find promising applications in tissue engineering for the management of inflammation.

Membrane separation has been well acknowledged as a forward-looking technology for hydrocarbon separation. Zeolitic imidazole framework-90 (ZIF-90) with effective pore size of 5.0 Å is a promising membrane material for hydrocarbon separation. Owing to the enormous challenges facing the fabrication process, the research on the ZIF-90 polycrystalline membrane is fairly underexplored. Herein we report a solvent-vapor-triggered crystallization strategy for the production of ZIF-90 membranes. The resultant ZIF-90 membrane had a typical polycrystalline membrane structure where the regular ZIF-90 grains propagated inside the whole porous support. Intriguingly, the membrane displayed two obvious sharp cut-off regions falling between the C 3 H 6 /C 3 H 8 and n- C 4 H 10 / i- C 4 H 10 gas pairs, respectively. The ZIF-90 membrane achieved ultrafast and selective permeation of C 3 H 6 from the C 3 H 6 /C 3 H 8 mixture. The C 3 H 6 flux was about 3.4 kg·m −2 ·h −1 which was comparable to the commercial NaA zeolite membrane for organic solvent dehydration. Further, the distinctive gas transport kinetic nature enabled the ZIF-90 membranes to exclude i -C 4 H 10 and thus harvest unprecedented n -/ i -C 4 H 10 separation ability in high-temperature regions. As the temperature elevated from 25 to 150 °C, the n- C 4 H 10 permeance was enhanced from 3.0 × 10 −9 to 12 × 10 −9 mol·m −2 ·s −1 ·Pa −1 and the n- C 4 H 10 / i- C 4 H 10 separation factors was improved from 63 to 95, respectively. The high permeance and permselectivity at industrially relevant high temperatures and pressures make ZIF-90 membrane attractive for industrial light hydrocarbon separation.

Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is esteemed as a high-performance engineering polymer renowned for its exceptional mechanical properties and thermal stability. Nonetheless, the majority of polymer-based lubricating materials fail to meet the contemporary industrial demands for motion components regarding high speed, heavy loading, temperature resistance, and precise control. Utilizing 3D printing technology to design and fabricate intricately structured components, developing high-performance polymer self-lubricating materials becomes imperative to fulfill the stringent operational requirements of motion mechanisms. This study introduces a novel approach employing 3D printing technology to produce PEEK with varying filling densities and conducting in situ synthesis of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) nanomaterials on its surface to enhance PEEK’s frictional performance. The research discusses the synthetic methodology, characterization techniques, and tribological performance evaluation of in situ synthesized ZIF-8 nanomaterials on PEEK surfaces. The findings demonstrate a significant enhancement in frictional performance of the composite material under low-load conditions, achieving a minimum wear rate of 4.68 × 10−6mm3/N·m compared to the non-grafted PEEK material’s wear rate of 1.091 × 10−5mm3/N·m, an approximately 1.3 times improvement. Detailed characterization and analysis of the worn surface of the steel ring unveil the lubrication mechanism of the ZIF-8 nanoparticles, thereby presenting new prospects for the diversified applications of PEEK.

Graphene and graphene-like two-dimensional layered nanomaterials-based photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensors have recently grown rapidly in popularity thanks to their advantages of high sensitivity and low background signal, which have attracted tremendous attention in ultrahigh sensitive small molecule detection. This work proposes a non-enzymatic and visible-light-sensitive PEC biosensing platform based on ZIF-67@MoS2/rGO composite which is synthesized through a facile and one-step microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. The combination of MoS2and rGO could construct van der Waals heterostructures, which not only act as visible-light-active nanomaterials, but facilitate charge carriers transfer between the photoelectrode and glassy carbon electrode (GCE). ZIF-67 anchored on MoS2/rGO heterostructures provides large specific surface areas and a high proportion of catalytic sites, which cooperate with MoS2nanosheets, realizing rapid and efficient enzyme-free electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose. The ZIF-67@MoS2/rGO-modified GCE can realize the rapid and sensitive detection of glucose at low detection voltage, which exhibits a high sensitivity of 12.62 μAmM−1cm−2. Finally, the ZIF-67@MoS2/rGO PEC biosensor is developed by integrating the ZIF-67@MoS2/rGO with a screen-printed electrode (SPE), which exhibits a high sensitivity of 3.479 μAmM−1cm−2and a low detection limit of 1.39 μM. The biosensor’s selectivity, stability, and repeatability are systematically investigated, and its practicability is evaluated by detecting clinical serum samples.Keywords:ZIF-67;2D material;non-enzymatic;heterostructure;visible-light sensitive;photoelectrochemical biosensing

Lithium–sulfur (Li-S) batteries have received much attention due to their high energy density and low price. In recent years, alleviating the volume expansion and suppressing the shuttle effect during the charge and discharge processes of Li-S batteries have been widely addressed. However, the slow conversion kinetics from polysulfide (LiPSs) to Li2S2/Li2S still limits the application of Li-S batteries. Therefore, we designed a ZIF-67 grown on cellulose (named ZIF-67@CL) as an electrocatalyst to improve the interconversion kinetics from LiPSs to Li2S2/Li2S for Li-S batteries. Based on the results of adsorption experiments of LiPSs, ZIF-67@CL and CL hosts were immersed in Li2S4solution to adsorb LiPSs, and the UV-Vis test was conducted on the supernatant after adsorption. The results showed that the ZIF-67@CL had a stronger adsorption for LiPSs compared with the cellulose (CL). Furthermore, in the Li2S nucleation tests, the fabricated cells were galvanostatically discharged to 2.06 V at 0.112 mA and then potentiostatically discharged at 2.05 V. Based on the results of Li2S nucleation tests, the catalytic effect of ZIF-67 was further verified. As a result, the sulfur cathode used a ZIF-67 catalyst (named S/ZIF-67@CL) and delivered an initial capacity of 1346 mAh g−1at a current density of 0.2 C. Even at a high current density of 2 C, it exhibited a high-capacity performance of 1087 mAh g−1on the first cycle and maintained a capacity output of 462 mAh g−1after 150 cycles, with a Coulombic efficiency of over 99.82%.

Supercapacitors have received widespread attention from scientific researchers due to the advantages of high power density, fast charging/discharging rate and long cycle life. Among them, the development of high performance and high safety electrode materials are important research topics in the field of supercapacitors. Herein, zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) derivatives is a good candidate material for supercapacitors electrode because of its controllable pore rate, constant cavity and larger specific area. However, the reunion phenomenon and the damaged structure during the reaction seriously affected its electrochemical properties, especially its stability. To solve this problem, the few-layer MXene was added into ZIF-67 to inhibit the reunion of single materials and the carbonization process was operated to improve its conductivity and structure stability. In addition, the CoNi 2 S 4 /carbon/MXene (CNS/C/MXene) obtained by the solvent thermal method successfully inherited the hollow cages structure and rough surface from the precursor, expressing a better electrochemical performance. In three-electrode system, the CNS/C/MXene electrode can exhibit the specific capacitance of 1221.6 F g −1 (169.7 mAh g −1 ) at 1 A g −1 and still maintain a high capacitance of 966.4 F g −1 (134.2 mAh g −1 ) at 20 A g −1 (79.1 % of the former). After assembling it with activated carbon into asymmetric supercapacitor, the device can provide a high energy density of 19.82 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 469.31 W kg −1 and maintain about 71.17 % of the initial capacitance after 30,000 cycles under a current density of 20 A g −1 , representing excellent cycle stability and rate capability.

Oil–water separation is critical to ensuring the reliability of industrial oils. However, commonly used polymer separation materials can be difficult to degrade, contributing to white pollution. This study used electrospinning and seed-assisted in situ growth methods to combine the biodegradability of polylactic acid (PLA) with the high wettability and photocatalytic activity of a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8). The resulting PLA@ZIF-8 nanofiber composites exhibited both efficient oil–water separation and self-cleaning contaminant removal abilities. The mild growth conditions of ZIF-8 and the seed-assisted method overcame the limitations regarding the in situ growth of metal–organic frameworks on PLA substrates. Experiments and COMSOL simulations revealed that the rough papillary structure of the ZIF-8 formed on the surface of the nanofiber membrane improved the oleophilicity and hydrophobicity of the PLA materials, thereby enhancing the oil–water separation performance, realizing a separation efficiency of >99.8% and maximum flux of 6280 L m–2 h–1. Under UV light irradiation, the composite membrane achieved a diesel degradation rate of 92.8%, thereby addressing the problem of reduced service life owing to fouling and pore blockage in current oil–water separation applications. The removal rate of the water-soluble pollutant methylene blue was 99.7%. Notably, the PLA@ZIF-8 membrane demonstrated excellent biodegradability and almost completely degraded after being buried in outdoor soil for 120 days, thereby avoiding white pollution. The proposed multifunctional membrane provides an efficient and environmentally friendly solution for industrial oil–water separation processes.
