Chemotherapeutic agents fail in clinical chemotherapy in the absence of targeting and acquired resistance. We, therefore, synthesized Fe3O4@ZIF-8@Sor@TA nanocomposite drugs based on the drug delivery properties of nanomaterials. ZIF-8 is a nanomaterial with a porous structure that can load anticancer drugs. The nanodrug used the paramagnetic property of Fe3O4 to deliver sorafenib (Sor) precisely to the tumor site, then used the pH responsiveness of ZIF-8 to slowly release Sor in the tumor microenvironment, and finally used tannic acid (TA) to inhibit P-glycoprotein to suppress the Sor resistance. The results of material characterization presented that the prepared material was structurally stable and was able to achieve a cumulative drug release of 38.2% at pH 5.0 for 72 h. The good biocompatibility of the composite was demonstrated by in vitro and in vivo experiments, which could improve antitumor activity and reduce Sor resistance through magnetic targeting TA. In conclusion, the Fe3O4@ZIF-8@Sor@TA material prepared in this study demonstrated high antitumor activity in hepatocellular carcinoma treatment, promising to reduce drug resistance and providing a novel research approach for cancer treatment.

Multifunctional cellulose fabrics with flame retardancy, electrical conductivity and UV resistance are expected to be used in the next generation of wearable flexible sensors, so there is an urgent need to develop novel coating systems that improve the natural properties of cellulose fabrics and give it more functionality. Here, a 2D-3D hetero-structured multifunctional coating consisting of titanium carbide (Ti 3 C 2 Tx MXene), zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) and phosphonitrilic chloride trimer (PPZ) was constructed on cotton/lyocell blended fabrics (C/L) by a one-pot impregnation method. Briefly, C/L first interacted with MXene via hydrogen bonding, and then the ZIF-8 encapsulation system grew in situ on MXene. The optimal sample obtained, named as MXene@ZIF-8@PPZ-C/L, combines flame retardancy, human motion detection and UV resistance. Compared to the untreated C/L, MXene@ZIF-8@PPZ-C/L exhibited a limiting oxygen index value of up to 30.8%, with peak heat release rate and total heat release values reduced by 65.7% and 15.8%, respectively. Meanwhile, MXene@ZIF-8@PPZ-C/L with an electrical conductivity of 24.4 s/m was able to sense human movement stably and continuously. Moreover, MXene@ZIF-8@PPZ-C/L also showed a high ultraviolet protection factor. In short, this work provided a simple method for fabricating new-generation multifunctional flexible wearable smart fabrics.

The deterioration of postharvest fruits and vegetables caused by ethylene and microorganisms leads to global resource waste. Therefore, the development of multifunctional packaging materials that scavenge ethylene and inhibit microorganisms is essential to extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables and minimize waste. Herein, the excellent photocatalytic performance of [email protected] nanoparticles (NPs) was incorporated into chitosan (CS) and sodium alginate (SA) matrix by layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly method to obtain CS/SA/ [email protected] nanocomposite films. These as-prepared films exhibited excellent antibacterial (antibacterial ratio >99%) and ethylene scavenging properties (scavenging ratio >40%) due to the synergistic effect between visible light-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the higher specific surface area of ZIF-8. The extended shelf life of kiwifruit further confirmed the enhanced preservation performance of CS/SA/ [email protected] nanocomposite films. In addition, with the addition of [email protected] NPs, the color, and transparency of the films decreased, but the mechanical strength, thermal stability, hydrophobicity, and barrier properties were improved. In summary, the successful construction of ethylene scavenging and antibacterial films provides new ideas for the innovation of environmentally adaptive and functionalization of films.

In this study, the one-dimensional nanomaterial α-MnO 2 @ZIF-8 was satisfactorily fabricated using a simple hydrothermal method by modifying ZIF-8 on α-MnO 2 nanowires for high-performance extraction of U(VI) out of water solution. The experimental data indicated that the adsorption of U(VI) on α-MnO 2 @ZIF-8 was intensely dependent on solution pH but not on ionic strength . The maximum adsorption of U(VI) on α-MnO 2 @ZIF-8 at pH = 5.0 and T = 298 K was 802.36 mg/g, substantially higher than the adsorption on α-MnO 2 (22.32 mg/g) or ZIF-8(551.31 mg/g) under the same conditions, indicating that the performance of the modified α-MnO 2 was greatly enhanced. Attaining adsorption equilibrium within 45 min, the analytical kinetic process of α-MnO 2 @ZIF-8 indicated that its adsorption on U(VI) was monolayer chemisorption . The adsorption experiments and XPS analyzed the possible adsorption mechanism of U(VI) in the reaction with α-MnO 2 @ZIF-8 during the adsorption process , namely intra-sphere surface complexation, chemisorption and electrostatic interaction . The simple preparation and high removal efficiency of α-MnO 2 @ZIF-8 indicated that this adsorbent had good prospects for application in wastewater.

The adsorption and protective calcination methods were combined to synthesize single Mn atoms catalyst with more Mn-N x exposure for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. During the carbonization process, the surface adsorbed Mn species in zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) and the surrounding graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) jointly maintained the morphology of precursor and enriched Mn-N 6 sites near the catalyst surface. The hollow and hierarchically porous structures induced by the erosive function of g-C 3 N 4 further facilitated the exposure of Mn-N 6 sites and mass transfer processes. Herein, the derived hollow carbon polyhedron catalyst (C-Z8-Mn@g-C 3 N 4 ) possessed highly accessible edge-host Mn-N 6 sites and ultra-high specific surface area (1846.91 m 2 g −1 ). C-Z8-Mn@g-C 3 N 4 exhibited remarkable catalysis for sulfamethoxazole (SMX) degradation at an extremely low dosage (0.01 g L −1 ), particularly, up to 3.8 times of promotion was obtained compared to traditional single Mn atoms catalyst (66.9 vs 17.8 L g −1 min −1 ). Besides, the catalytic performance of C-Z8-Mn@g-C 3 N 4 was not obviously affected by initial pH (3.14–11.00), inorganic anions and natural organic matters (NOMs). Experiments and Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that Mn-N 6 sites not only had stronger PMS adsorption capacity than graphitic N, but also enhanced the electron transfer between catalyst and PMS, thus promoting the redox and self-decomposition of PMS to produce SO 4 − , OH and singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) (as major active oxygen species). This work provides new insights into the regulation of active sites exposure in single-atom catalysts for enhanced catalytic performance.

The development of highly efficient piezocatalysts has attracted widespread attention for energy conversion and pollution abatement. This paper reports for the first time exceptional piezocatalytic properties of a Zn- and N -codoped porous carbon piezocatalyst (Zn-N x -C) derived from the zeolitic imidazolium framework-8 (ZIF-8) for both hydrogen production and degradation of organic dyes. The Zn-N x -C catalyst has a high specific surface area of 810.6 m 2 /g and retains the dodecahedron structure of ZIF-8. Under ultrasonic vibration, the hydrogen production rate of Zn-N x -C has achieved 6.29 mmol/g/h, surpassing most recently reported piezocatalysts. Additionally, the Zn-N x -C catalyst demonstrates a 94% degradation efficiency for organic rhodamine B (RhB) dye during 180 min of ultrasonic vibration. This work sheds new light on the potential of ZIF-based materials in the field of piezocatalysis and provides a promising avenue for future developments in the area.

In this paper zinc-based metal organic framework material (ZIF-8) modified carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) was prepared and electrodeposited with gold nanoparticles to get a composite modified electrode, which was used as the sensing interface for the immobilization of hemoglobin (Hb) with Nafion to prepare a modified electrode (Nafion/Hb/Au/ZIF-8/CILE). Electrochemical behaviors of Hb on the modified electrode were checked by cyclic voltammetry with a pair of well-defined redox peaks appeared. The effects of pH and scan rate on direct electrochemistry of Hb were studied with electrochemical parameters calculated. The prepared electrochemical enzyme sensor showed good catalytic activity to the electroreduction of bromate and nitrite with the linear ranges from 0.5 to 10.0 mmol/L and from 0.1 to 0.8 mmol/L, respectively. The detection limits were calculated as 0.83 mmol/L and 0.03 mmol/L, and the water samples were analyzed to prove the practical application.

Herein, we report a preparation method based on a modified zeolite imidazolate skeleton loose nanofiltration membrane used to achieve the efficient separation of salt and dye from dye wastewater. In this study, negatively charged hydrophilic TA@ZIF-8 was synthesized using a tannin surface-functionalization-assisted etching process by tannic acid (TA). A novel, highly negatively charged, and loose nanofiltration membrane was then prepared by adding TA@ZIF-8 to a polyethyleneimine (PEI) and tricarboxylic acid (TMA) crosslinking system. The addition of TA@ZIF-8 nanoparticles not only changed the degree of crosslinking of PEI/TMA but also provided a preferential channel for water molecules, thereby improving the flux of the membrane. Then, the success of TA@ZIF-8 NPs and membranes preparation were verified by SEM, XRD, FT-IR, TGA , BET, XPS and other methods. The results showed that the optimal preparation conditions were 0.020 wt% TA@ZIF-8 loading, and the contact angle of the membranes decreased from 79.8° to 53.7°. The water flux of the membrane is 81 L·m −2 ·h −1 ·bar −1 , which is 1.5 times that of PEI/TMA membrane. In addition, TA@ZIF-8–2 membrane not only has high rejection rate for Methyl blue (98.7 %), Toluidine blue (89.6 %), Cr 6+ (91.2 %), but also maintains high transmittance for NaCl and Na 2 SO 4 . Besides, the separation performance of the membrane was stable for a long time in a mixed solution of dye and salt and excellent antifouling performance. Therefore, the loose TA@ZIF-8/PEI/TMA nanofiltration membrane has broad application prospects in printing and dyeing wastewater treatments .

Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are promising materials in electrochemical sensor. Herein, Cu-doped zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) was synthesized by hydrothermal method. The prepared composite was characterized by XRD, FTIR and SEM. Then the material was modified onto the surface of glass carbon electrode (GCE) with chitosan(CHIT) and Cytochrome C (cyt c ). The modified electrode showed good electrochemical activity toward the reduction of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ). Under optimized conditions, the linear response of the sensor to H 2 O 2 ranges from 10~5200 μM, with a detection limit of 3.7 μM (S/N=3). Finally, the sensor was successfully applied to determine H 2 O 2 in water samples. Thus, the Cu-doped ZIF material has great potential for applications in electrochemical sensors.

To strengthen active sites in zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) to effectively convert microalgal lipids into biodiesel, acid-base bifunctional single-atom catalysts with Zn-N x coordination were synthesized through pyrolyzing ZIF-8. The saturated coordinated Zn-N 4 sites were destroyed and converted to unsaturated coordinated Zn sites and surrounding N atoms at 700 °C, which enhanced Lewis acidity and basicity, respectively. The Zn-N content in the catalyst decreased from 77.68 % to 43.26 %, while that of pyridinic N increased from 8.14 % to 36.73 %. The acidity of the catalyst increased from 0.498 to 3.979 mmol/g, whereas basicity increased from 0.219 to 0.650 mmol/g. According to density functional theory calculations, unsaturated coordinated Zn-N x (x = 1, 2, 3) sites exhibited lower free energies and reaction energy barriers in free fatty acid esterification. The energy barriers for rate-determining steps over Zn-N 4 , Zn-N 3 , Zn-N 2 , and Zn-N 1 sites were + 1.01 eV, +0.82 eV, +0.63 eV, and + 0.54 eV, respectively. Therefore, the optimum catalyst exhibited a high conversion efficiency of 97.9 %, which was better than that of ZIF-8 (85.4 %).

Immobilized angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is a promising material for the rapid screening of antihypertensive drugs, but the nonspecific adsorption is a serious problem in separation processes involving complex biological products. In this study, triblock copolymers with dopamine (DA) block as anchors and PEG block as the main body (DA-PEGx-DA) were attached to an immobilized ACE (ACE@mZIF-8/PDA, AmZP) surface via the “grafting to” strategy which endowed them with anti-nonspecific adsorption. The influence of DA-PEGx-DA chain length on nonspecific adsorption was confirmed. The excellent specificity and reusability of the obtained ACE@mZIF-8/PDA/DA-PEG5000-DA (AmZPP5000) was validated by screening two known ACE inhibitory peptides Val-Pro-Pro (VPP, competitive inhibitory peptides of ACE) and Gly-Met-Lys-Cys-Ala-Phe (GF-6, noncompetitive inhibitory peptides of ACE) from a mixture containing active and inactive compounds. These results demonstrate that anchored polymer loops are effective for high-recognition selectivity and AmZPP5000is a promising compound for the efficient separation of ACE inhibitors in biological samples.Keywords:polymer loops;angiotensin converting enzyme;immobilization of enzyme;mesoporous ZIF-8;recognition selectivity

The crucial challenge to exploit effective ozone (O 3 ) gas sensors lies in developing novel functional sensing materials to meet the requirement of trace-level detection threshold (50 ppb). Metal oxide semiconductors (MOSs) with controllable heterogenous composites as high-performance sensing layers are expected to break through this bottleneck. This work proposes the hybridization of MIL-68 (In) and ZIF-8, which are employed as dual metal organic frameworks (MOFs) sacrificial templates to design n-n heterostructures . The derived In 2 O 3 backbone showed a hexagonal prismatic structure with a large aspect ratio. The robust architecture enabled the uniform decoration of mass of ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) on the surfaces without the damage of high porosity for the gas diffusion. Consequently, the optimal sensor with appropriate ZnO NPs loading amount exhibited trace O 3 detection ability as low as 15 ppb, which was attributed to the smart design of n-n heterostructure, rich active sites and improved oxygen-adsorbing capacity. Thus, this work inspires a new way to utilize the versatile dual MOFs template for constructing heterogenous composites as O 3 sensing materials.
