Published: July 2022

A novel single-solvent-interfacial strategy is proposed to synthesize hollow MOFs, fabricated at the two-phase interface originated from the self-deliquescence of hydration water in the metallic precursors and the solvents with low water solubility. The as-fabricated HMOFs with hierarchically porous structures exhibit significant enhancement in CO separation and catalysis.

Passivating Lattice Oxygen in ZnO Nanocrystals to Reduce its Interactions with the Key Intermediates for a Selective Photocatalytic Methane Oxidation to Methanol.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

January 2025

School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, State Key Laboratory of Pulp and Paper Engineering, South China University of Technology, Guangzhou, 510640, China.

An inevitable overoxidation process is considered as one of the most challenging problems in the direct conversion of methane (CH) to methanol (CHOH), which is limited by the uncontrollable cracking of key intermediates. Herein, we have successfully constructed a photocatalyst, the Fe-doped ZnO hollow polyhedron (Fe/ZnOHP), for the highly selective photoconversion of CH to CHOH under mild conditions. In situ experiments and density functional theory calculations confirmed that the introduction of Fe was able to decrease the energy level of the O 2p orbital, which passivated the activity of lattice oxygen in ZnO nanocrystals.

Polymer-MOF Network Enabling Ultrathin Coating for Post-Combustion Carbon Capture.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

December 2024

Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, National University of Singapore, 117585, Singapore.

Article Synopsis
  • The development of membranes for post-combustion carbon capture faces challenges such as the trade-off between permeance and selectivity, as well as high temperature resilience.
  • Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) made from polymers and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) could solve these issues, but they struggle with low MOF loading in thin layers.
  • The proposed inverse synthesis strategy allows for high MOF loading (up to 40 wt%) in polymer coatings, significantly enhancing CO permeance and maintaining selectivity at elevated temperatures, paving the way for energy-efficient carbon capture technologies.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit intriguing physicochemical properties due to their manageable structure, abundant porosity, and uniform pore size, which provide ideal environments for photocatalysts to achieve highly efficient photocatalysis. In this work, -Ir(ppy) is directly anchored to MOFs of MIL-101 with different morphologies Friedel-Crafts alkylation, affording various MIL-101-supported -Ir(ppy) without the molecular modification of -Ir(ppy). The as-fabricated photocatalysts possess high specific surface areas (785-962 m g), pore volumes (0.

Bimetallic MIL-88/Polyaniline Hybrid Hollow Structure: In-situ Synthesis and Enhanced Oxygen Evolution Reaction at High Current Densities.

Chemistry

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Supramolecular Structure and Materials, College of Chemistry, Jilin University, Changchun, 130012, People's Republic of China.

Developing oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts in an efficient strategy, while maintaining high catalytic activity and stability under high current densities, remains a crucial problem. In this study, a bimetallic iron-cobalt phytic acid complex loaded with polyaniline hollow structure (FCP@PAn) was successfully constructed, via a progress of selective etching and surface modification in one step without high-temperature phosphating or carbonization. The as-obtained FCP@PAn required only 329 and 385 mV overpotentials at high current densities of 500 and 1000 mA cm, respectively, due to phytic acid and polyaniline incorporation and the coordinated effect of each component.

Metal‒organic frameworks (MOFs) are nanoporous crystalline materials with enormous potential for further development into a new class of high-performance membranes. However, the preparation of defect-free and water-stable MOF membranes with high permselectivity and good structural integrity remains a challenge. Herein, we demonstrate a dual-source seeding (DS) approach to produce high-performance, water-stable MOF-303 membranes with hollow fiber (HF) geometry and preferentially tailored crystallographic orientation.
