Design and construction of metal-organic framework (MOF) composite precursors have recently been considered as a promising strategy for the preparation of different structured metal/carbon-based functional materials. Here, an MOF composite-assisted strategy to synthesize single-holed cobalt/N-doped carbon hollow particles is reported. The yolk-shell polystyrene@zeolitic imidazolate framework-67...

Geometrical structuring of monolithic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) components is required for their practical implementation in many areas, including electronic devices, gas storage/separation, catalysis, energy storage as well bio-medical applications. Despite progress MOFs, an approach the precise patterning MOF functional geometries millimeter- to micro-meter depth lacking. Here, a facile...

In this work, carbon dioxide (CO2) loading capacity of methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) solution promoted by potassium lysinate (KLys) was experimentally measured using a gas absorption setup at different concentrations and temperatures. The CO2 removal efficiency the MDEA + KLys investigated for CO2/N2 mixture computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations in hollow fiber membrane contactor (HFMC). ...

The economic feasibility of electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) relies on the development highly selective and efficient catalysts operating at a high current density. Herein, we explore ligand engineering strategy involving use metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) combining desirable features homogeneous heterogeneous for boosting activity CO2RR. Zn-based MOFs two different a...

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are heralded as potential nanoplatforms for biomedical applications. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), one of the most well known MOFs, has been widely applied a drug delivery carrier cancer therapy. However, application ZIF-8 nanoparticles therapeutic agent hindered by challenge how to control release behaviour anti-cancer zinc ions cells. In this paper,...

Metal–Organic Frameworks The zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) gel sintering technique provides a microstructure of densely aggregated, large spherical ZIF-67 crystals, resulting in bonding Cu substrates with shear strength exceeding 30 MPa, comparable to that conventional structural adhesives. More details can be found article number 2300298 by Izuru Miyazaki, Mitsutaro Umehara, and c...

Highly dispersed Ni nanoparticles have been successfully immobilized by the zeolitic metal-organic framework ZIF-8 via sequential deposition-reduction methods, which show high catalytic activity and long durability for hydrogen generation from hydrolysis of aqueous ammonia borane (NH(3)BH(3)) at room temperature.

Controlling the metal-organic framework (MOF)-matrix interface is a useful strategy to improve gas separation performance of mixed matrix membranes (MMMs). Although polymer blending has been investigated enhance MMM performances, its true strength, i.e., aligning and additive chemistries interfacial compatibility ultimately performance, only poorly investigated. In this work we demonstrate how ...
