Pt nanoparticle (Pt NP)@UiO-66-NH composites were synthesized and encompassed the benefits of permanent porosity, high thermal and chemical stability of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), together with the functional behavior of isolated Pt NPs. The PVP-stabilized Pt NPs with the average diameter of 2.48 nm were well dispersed and confined within the framework of UiO-66-NH. Pt NPs possess highly peroxidase-like activities and make the composites oxidize 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine in the presence of HO. Moreover, the specific interaction between Hg and Pt NPs leads to the effective suppression of the peroxidase-like activity of Pt NP@UiO-66-NH, which endows excellent selectivity for Hg measurement over the interfering metal ions. Based on the colorimetric sensing system, Hg is linearly measured over the range from 0 to 10 nM with a detection limit of 0.35 nM. Moreover, the as-obtained Pt NP@UiO-66-NH nanocomposites exhibit high capacity and good selectivity for Hg adsorption, which is successfully applied to treat Hg in water with removal efficiency over 99%. With these findings, Pt NP@UiO-66-NH composites can be used to develop a simple and rapid colorimetric sensing system and are utilized as nanoadsorbents for facile removal of Hg. This work not only expands the scientific researches on MOFs but also provides practical application in environmental, biological, and relative fields.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous, crystalline materials with high surface area, adjustable porosity, and structural tunability, making them ideal for diverse applications. However, traditional experimental and computational methods have limited scalability and interpretability, hindering effective exploration of MOF structure-property relationships. To address these challenges, we introduce, for the first time, a category-specific topological learning (CSTL), which combines algebraic topology with chemical insights for robust property prediction.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) combined with polymers as hybrid materials offer numerous advantages such as enhanced performances through synergistic effects at their interface. The primary challenge in developing polymer/MOF hybrid matrix films is ensuring optimal dispersion and strong adhesion of crystalline MOFs to the polymer without aggregation, weak interaction, or phase separation. In this study, hierarchically porous UiO-66_NH/chitosan (ZrCSx-) films were designed by crystallizing UiO-66_NH within a chitosan (CS) skeleton.

Neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, present formidable challenges in modern medicine due to their complex pathologies and the absence of curative treatments. Despite advances in symptomatic management, early diagnosis remains essential for mitigating disease progression and improving patient outcomes. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as MRI, PET, and cerebrospinal fluid biomarker analysis, are often inadequate for the early detection of these diseases.

The synthesis of mesoporous metal-organic frameworks (meso-MOFs) is desirable as these materials can be used in various applications. However, owing to the imbalance in structural tension at the micro-scale (MOF crystallization) and the meso-scales (assembly of micelles with MOF subunits), the formation of single-crystal meso-MOFs is challenging. Here we report the preparation of uniform single-crystal meso-MOF nanoparticles with ordered mesopore channels in microporous frameworks with definite arrangements, through a cooperative assembly method co-mediated by strong and weak acids.

sp-carbon-linked covalent organic frameworks (spc-COFs) are crystalline porous polymers with repeat organic units linked by sp carbons, and have attracted increasing interest due to their robust skeleton and tunable semiconducting properties. Single-crystalline spc-COFs with well-defined structures can represent an ideal platform for investigating fundamental physics properties and device performance. However, the robust olefin bonds inhibit the reversible-reaction-based crystal self-correction, thus yielding polycrystalline or amorphous polymers.
