Flower-like bimetal-organic framework derived composites with tunable structures for high-efficiency electromagnetic wave absorption.

Recently, high-performance functional composites for electromagnetic wave absorption (EWA) with tunable nano/micro-structures have attracted extensive attention. Herein, the flower-like electrically conductive and magnetic cobalt-nickel@carbon (CoNi@C) composites derived from bimetallic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were fabricated via solvothermal method and pyrolysis. By adjusting the ratios of different precursors, different morphological features of composites were formed.

Lightweight and anisotropic cellulose nanofibril/rectorite composite sponges for efficient dye adsorption and selective separation.

Constructing lightweight and porous adsorbents which can effectively remove dye contaminants is of great significance in the field of the sewage treatment. In this work, anisotropic cellulose nanofibril (CNF) composite sponges assisted by rectorites are fabricated through directional freeze-drying. The resulted composite sponge exhibits the superior saturated adsorption capacity and removal efficiency of 120.
