Oxytetracycline (OTC), a broad class of antibacterial medication, has been widely utilized in poultry husbandry and fish farming. However, the presence of OTC residues in the food has become a matter of great concern. These residues have the potential to induce the emergence and spread of bacterial resistance, which can have far-reaching consequences for public health. In this work, we focused on the comparison of the quenching efficiency of UiO-66 and its amino group-modified counterpart UiO-66-NH 2 , towards the fluorescence of nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs) labeled aptamer (NGQDs-apt). It was found that UiO-66-NH 2 demonstrated a more potent fluorescence quenching ability towards NGQDs-apt, as high as 98.8 %, compared to 69.7 % for UiO-66 without amino functionalization. This enhanced performance is attributed to the improved interaction between the amino groups on UiO-66-NH 2 and the NGQDs-apt, facilitating more effective electron transfer. Consequently, UiO-66-NH 2 was selected as the optimal quencher for the development of a highly sensitive aptasensor. This aptasensor demonstrates a quantitative detection range for OTC spanning from 0.001 to 200 μM with an exceptionally low detection limit of 0.25 nM, showing simplicity, accuracy, stability and great potential for antibiotic residue detection in food samples. This work addresses the urgent need to develop reliable methods for detecting OTC residues in food due to the potential of OTC to trigger bacterial resistance, which is crucial for food safety and public health.

The water oxidation reaction involves a four electron–proton coupled process that is kinetically sluggish and has hindered the widespread application of water-splitting technology. Metal-MOF-coupled heterostructures serve as good OER electrocatalysts due to their endowed MOF frameworks and numerous transition metal active sites at the interface. In this study, a simple ultrasonic impregnation strategy was used to prepare CoOx/UiO-66-300 and NiO/UiO-66-300 heterostructures via the impregnation of Co and Ni ions into UiO-66 followed by roasting in air at 300 °C to obtain heterostructures with UiO-66-retained frameworks as revealed by SEM. The electrochemical results show that the respective impregnation successfully modulated the electronic charge at the interface of the heterostructures, leading to rapid electron transfer that enhanced the OER activity. CoOx/UiO-66-300 and NiO/UiO-66-300 heterostructures showed good oxygen evolution reaction activities of 283 mV and 291.6 mV, respectively, due to the retained UiO-66 framework, while CoOx/UiO-66-550 and NiO/UiO-66-550 heterostructures calcined at 550 °C showed a decrease in OER activities of 332.6 mV and 346.6 mV, respectively, due to the collapsed UiO-66 framework. This work gives insight into the development of heterostructures of MOF-retained frameworks for energy applications.

Fabricating metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) membranes directly onto metal surfaces as anticorrosive coatings is a feasible approach for the application of MOFs in corrosion protection . The MOFs membranes with specific organic groups can be further customized as versatile platforms for developing various functional coatings. Herein, UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH 2 membranes are synthesized onto aluminum surfaces through a polydopamine-assisted method, which are then grafted with superhydrophobic molecules of perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane (PFDTES). The -COOH groups in UiO-66 and -COOH/-NH 2 groups in UiO-66-NH 2 can serve as firm anchor sites for covalently grafting with PFDTES, enabling robust superhydrophobicity of the as-prepared coatings. The superhydrophobic surfaces exhibit water repellency (water contact angle of ∼165 o ), chemical (pH and salinity) and wear-resisting robustness, and long-term service durability. They also perform decent anti-fouling, self-cleaning, and anti-icing properties. Notably, sustainable corrosion protection can be provided by both coatings during immersion in saline solution (3.5 wt% NaCl) for one month and during a two-week salt spray test. Compared with UiO-66, the -NH 2 groups on UiO-66-NH 2 as extra grafting sites for firmer immobilization of more PFDTES molecules facilitate more durable superhydrophobicity and corrosion protection. We believe that this work could offer valuable insights into the multi-functional development of MOFs membranes-based coatings.

Chitosan/MOF composite porous monolith used in water remediation as adsorbent can realize high-efficient removal of pollutant in water and facile recycling from water. However, dissolution of chitosan (without crosslinking) in acidic aqueous solution will cause breakage of composite monolith. Herein, we report a chitosan/UiO-66 monolith prepared by ice-templating method. Specially, a pre-crosslinking treatment (by glutaraldehyde) is employed before the monolith formation, which obviously boosts its stability in aqueous solution. The composite monolith is evaluated by SEM, N 2 adsorption, XRD, and batch adsorption tests for Congo Red (CR). The results show that the composite monolith possesses a typical ice-templating structure with hierarchical (mirco- / meso- and macro-) pores. UiO-66 particles are embedded on the surface of chitosan matrix, and the crystal structure of UiO-66 is not changed obviously by the crosslinking and freezing process. The composite monolith exhibits high adsorption efficiency (90% of CR was removed from its aqueous solution in 60 min) and the maximum adsorption capacity of 246.21 mg/g (derived from Langmuir model) can be reached. After adsorption, the monolith is collected by a facile procedure and recovered using ethanol for evaluating its reusability. After 4 cycles, the CR removal efficiency of the composite monolith still remains ~90% of the initial efficiency. This work demonstrates that the simple crosslinking procedure before monolith formation can ensure the intact shape of the chitosan/MOF monolith during adsorption.

Environmental pollution of phosphorus is becoming increasingly concerning, and phosphate removal from water has become an important issue for controlling eutrophication. Modified metal–organic framework (MOF) materials, such as UiO-66-NH 2 , are promising adsorbents for phosphate removal in aquatic environments due to their high specific surface area, high porosity, and open active metal sites. In this study, a millimeter-sized alginate/UiO-66-NH 2 composite hydrogel modified by polyethyleneimine (UiO-66-NH 2 /SA@PEI) was prepared. The entrapping of UiO-66-NH 2 in the alginate microspheres and its modification with PEI facilitate easy separation in addition to enhanced adsorption properties. The materials were characterized by SEM, FTIR, XRD, and BET. Static, dynamic, and cyclic adsorption experiments were conducted under different pH, temperature, adsorbent dosage, and initial concentration conditions to assess the phosphate adsorption ability of UiO-66-NH 2 /SA@PEI. Under optimal conditions of 65 °C and pH = 2, 0.05 g UiO-66-NH 2 /SA@PEI adsorbed 68.75 mg/g, and the adsorption rate remained at 99% after five cycles of UiO-66-NH 2 /SA@PEI. These results suggest that UiO-66-NH 2 /SA@PEI composite materials can be used as an effective adsorbent for phosphate removal from wastewater.

MOF membranes exhibit impressive performance in gas separation due to their large surface area, controllable pore size and unique affinity. Here, the ultrathin UiO-66-NH 2 polycrystalline membranes with thickness of ∼320 nm are successfully prepared within 1 h using a combination of ultrasound-assisted and microwave synthesis strategies. During the reaction, high-density small MOF nuclei are produced by sodium formate ultrasound-assisted, which act as sufficient nucleation sites for heterogeneous nucleation during membrane growth, aiming for development of a continuous MOF membrane on the porous substrate. The obtained UiO-66-NH 2 membrane shows an ideal CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity of 40 due to the enhanced the interaction between CO 2 molecules and the membrane. Moreover, the narrowed pore structure further hinders the diffusion of larger-sized molecules owing to -NH 2 occupying the pore channels, resulting in elevated CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity. Compared to many other MOF membranes, the UiO-66-NH 2 polycrystalline membranes exhibit a well balance of gas permeance and CO 2 /CH 4 selectivity, which presents a new route for CO 2 capture.

UiO-66 loading carboxyl and phosphotungstic acid has a good affinity to thiophene (TH). The synthesized catalyst, changed its original structure, which can increase its reactive site and enhance the interaction with thiophene (TH) in order to improve the adsorption performance. Then the structural changes were analyzed by XRD, FT-IR, SEM, BET, EDS and other characterization methods. Through static experiments of adsorption desulfurization, it is found that when the adsorption time is 240 min, the adsorption temperature is 30 ℃ and the oil-to-agent ratio is 100:1, the adsorption effect: UiO-66-(COOH) 2 (UC2) > UiO-66, the highest adsorption capacity can reach 89.99 mg/g; while PTA@UiO-66 (PAU) can reach adsorption equilibrium at 210 min, it has better desulfurization performance than UiO-66. After being recycled for 5 times, the adsorption effect is only slightly decreased: the adsorption capacity of UC2 was still 78.02% of the initial adsorption capacity, while that of PAU was 76.07% of the initial adsorption capacity. According to the adsorption kinetics, the adsorption process of thiophene on the adsorbent UC2 is more consistent with W-M model, and the adsorption of PAU is more in line with the pseudo-first order kinetic equation. In addition, it also includes the process of intraparticle diffusion and liquid film diffusion.

In this study, UiO-66-NH2 nanoparticles were synthesized via a hydrothermal method, using acetic acid and hydrochloric acid as modulators to optimize the specific surface area and pore width. Oxytetracycline (OTC) was chosen as the test compound to evaluate the adsorption efficiency of UiO-66-NH2.The material was thoroughly characterized under varying conditions, and the adsorption mechanism was systematically explored through adsorption kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamic analyses. The results demonstrated that UiO-66-NH2 exhibited a high OTC adsorption capacity, achieving a maximum of 312.5 mg g−1 under optimal conditions. XRD, TGA, and BET analyses revealed that acetic acid and hydrochloric acid significantly improved the crystallinity and thermal stability of UiO-66-NH2, increasing the specific surface area from 8.023 m2 g−1 to 998.663 m2 g−1 and reducing the pore width from 18.783 nm to 2.129 nm. FTIR, XPS, adsorption kinetics, and isotherm studies indicated that the main forces driving OTC adsorption by CMC-Fe were hydrogen bonding, π–π stacking, weak electrostatic interactions, and pore filling. Cyclic adsorption experiments further demonstrated the excellent reusability of UiO-66-NH2. In summary, the use of acetic acid and hydrochloric acid significantly increased the specific surface area of UiO-66-NH2, exposing more adsorption sites and playing a critical role in pollutant removal.

UiO-66 nanocrystals were synthesized by supercritical reaction crystallization with anhydrous zirconium chloride as the metal precursor, terephthalic acid as the ligand, and a small amount of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and formic acid as cosolvents in supercritical CO2. In our work, the product UiO-66 obtained exhibits typical octahedral morphology with a specific surface area of 1092 m2/g and concentrated micropore diameters of 0.77, 1.05, and 1.73 nm. The thermal decomposition temperature of the product is 450 °C. It was found that the adsorption selectivity of UiO-66 for Congo red is much higher than those for methylene blue and methyl orange, which can reach up to over 1300 mg/g. The adsorption process conforms to the second-order adsorption kinetics curve, and the adsorption isotherm fits into the Langmuir model. Meanwhile, the adsorbent UiO-66 possesses good cycle stability and its adsorption performance remains excellent after seven cycles.

UiO–66–NH 2 (Ti/Zr) modified by Ti metal oxide (TiO 2 ) was used to catalyze the hydrolysis of cellulose to prepare 5-HMF. Under the optimal reaction conditions of H 2 O(NaCl)/THF(1/4 mL), 190 °C, 2 h and 50 mg UNT-3(Ti/Zr) (TiO 2 and UiO–66–NH 2 with mass of 1.5 and 0.1 g, respectively), the yield of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural reached 59.88%. UiO–66–NH 2 (Ti/Zr) nanocomposites with different mass ratios were successfully prepared by simple solvent evaporation method. SEM and TEM have shown that the modified UiO–66–NH 2 (Ti/Zr) are wrapped into sphere by TiO 2 densely attached to the surface of UiO–66–NH 2 , which provides favorable conditions for the uniform dispersion of TiO 2 and coordination of the Lewis acidic site of UiO–66–NH 2 . NH 3 –TPD results confirmed the existence of super-strong, strong, middle and weak acid sites in UiO–66–NH 2 (Ti/Zr), and Py-FTIR confirmed the existence of Brønsted and Lewis acids. After four cycles, the yield of 5-HMF and FUR decreased slightly from 59.88 to 51.89% and 9.11 to 7.66%, respectively, and the yield of 5-HMF could still remain above 50%. The results showed that the modified composite treatment of TiO 2 with rich Lewis acid/base and UiO–66–NH 2 could provide a certain idea for the extensive application of biomass research in the future.

Metal−organic framework UiO-66 has high chemical and thermal stability. However, it is difficult to produce such Zr-based MOFs with good crystalline morphology. Here, highly pure metal−organic framework UiO-66 has been synthesized at low temperature (50 °C). The as-synthesized sample has been characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis , nitrogen adsorption , and scanning electron microscopy. Its hydrogen-storage capacity has been measured by means of an Intelligent Gravimetric Analyser. The results showed that UiO-66 was synthesized in octahedral crystals of well-defined sizes (150−200 nm) and had a high specific surface area (1358 m 2 /g). The as-synthesized UiO-66 showed a significant hydrogen uptake even at a moderate pressure, which increased to 3.35 wt% at 77 K and 1.8 MPa. A grand canonical Monte Carlo simulation (GCMC) has been employed to calculate the adsorption of hydrogen in UiO-66. The result of this simulation provided a theoretical foundation for the experimental results.

The separation of high-octane dibranched alkanes from naphtha is critical in the refining of gasoline. To date, research on the membrane-based separation of alkane isomers has been limited, with a particular paucity of investigations into mixed-matrix membranes. Herein, the continuous and dense UiO-66/PIM-1 mixed-matrix membrane, which was prepared through precise control of the interfacial structure, was first applied to the differentiation of C6 alkane isomers. Due to the synergistic combination of UiO-66 with differential adsorption capabilities for alkanes and PIM-1 that possesses a cross-linkable structure, the resulting UiO-66/PIM-1-(20) membrane demonstrated remarkable separation performance and high stability. Pervaporation measurements showed that the mass fraction of 2,2-dimethylbutane in the feed side was increased from 50.0 to 75.8 wt % while an excellent flux of 1700 g m–2 h–1 was maintained over a continuous 40 h period. The UiO-66/PIM-1-(20) membrane, characterized by its facile replication and processing, shows potential for large-scale fabrication. This study offers a new approach to the membrane separation of alkane isomers.
