Monodispersed mesoporous iron fluorides were synthesized by a low-cost reversed micelle method. The as-prepared materials with hierarchical mesoporous structure exhibit excellent rate capability (115.6 mAh g at 2000 mA g) which is superior to many other carbon-free iron fluorides. In addition, a high reversible capacity of 143.2 mAh g can be retained after 100 cycles at 1000 mA g. The outstanding electrochemical features can be attributed to the particular hierarchical mesoporous structure, facilitating electrolyte penetration as well as rapid electronic and ionic transportation.

Immobilization of fragile enzymes is vital to expanding its application in the extracellular environment. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), as a class of emerging porous materials, are promising platforms for enzyme immobilization owing to their high porosity and tunable structure. However, the interior pores of COFs often fail to play their roles because of inaccessibility, resulting in decreased performance of immobilized enzymes.

Porous carbons with large surface area (>3000 m/g) and heteroatom dopants have shown great promise as electrode materials for zinc ion hybrid capacitors. Centralized mesopores are effective to accelerate kinetics, and edge nitrogen can efficiently enhance pseudocapacitive capability. It is a great challenge to engineer centralized mesopores and edge nitrogen in large-surface-area porous carbons.

Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) has been extensively studied as a precursor for nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) materials due to its high surface area, tunable porosity, and adjustable nitrogen content. However, the intrinsic microporous structure of the ZIF-8 limits mass transport and accessibility of reactants to active sites, reducing its effectiveness in electrochemical applications. In this study, a soft templating approach using a triblock copolymer was used to prepare mesoporous ZIF-8-derived NC (Meso-ZIF-NC) samples.

It is crucial yet challenging to sensitively quantify low-abundance biomarkers in blood for early screening and diagnosis of various diseases. Herein, an analytical model of intra-mesopore immunoassay (IMIA) was proposed, which was competent to examine various biomarkers at the femtomolar level. The success is rooted in the design of an innovative superparamagnetic core-shell structure with FeO nanoparticles (NPs) at the core and hierarchically porous zeolitic imidazolate frameworks as a shell (FeO@HPZIF-8), achieved through a soft-template directed self-assembly coupled with confinement growth mechanism.

As one of the most promising means to repair diseased tissues, stem cell therapy with immense potential to differentiate into mature specialized cells has been rapidly developed. However, the clinical application of stem-cell-dominated regenerative medicine was heavily hindered by the loss of pluripotency during the long-term in vitro expansion. Here, a composite three-dimensional (3D) graphene-based biomaterial, denoted as GO-Por-CMP@CaP, with hierarchical pore structure (micro- to macropore), was developed to guide the directional differentiation of human umbilical cord MSCs (hucMSCs) into osteoblasts.
