MIL-101-NH(Fe) is one of the effective photocatalytic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) working under visible light. However, its powder-type form inhibits reusability in practical applications. In this study, we immobilized MIL-101-NH(Fe) on a polymeric microfiber mesh to improve reusability while minimizing the loss of catalytic performance. To overcome the lack of surface functionality of the nylon fibers, an atomic layer deposition AlO layer and NH-BDC linker were introduced to facilitate uniform coating of the MOF on the fiber surface. The reactions of the metal precursor to the nylon substrate and NH-BDC ligand of the MOF allow chemical bonding from the core to the shell of the entire hybrid catalytic materials. The resulting fiber-immobilized MOFs (Nylon@AlO@MOF) demonstrated high photocatalytic performance in the removal of RhB and Cr(VI) as representatives of organic dyes and heavy metals, respectively, while retaining over 85% of its efficiency after five cycles.

Regarding the coexistence of heavy metals and organic pollutants, many studies have achieved synergistic removal of Cr(VI) and organic pollutants under acidic conditions. However, the role of Cr(VI) in the removal of organic pollutants under neutral conditions may have been overlooked. Here, the catalytic effect of Cr(VI) in promoting the photoelectrocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants was investigated using a ternary system, which was a combination of photocatalysis, electrocatalysis and Cr(VI) catalysis.

The interplay on anatase TiO photoactivity between particle morphology and gold nanoparticles (NPs) deposition, via either deposition-precipitation (DP) or photodeposition (P), is here investigated by evaluating the photoactivity of Au modified anatase (Au/TiO) nanocrystals with either a pseudospherical shape or a nanosheet structure in both reduction and oxidation test reactions. The presence of Au NPs on the anatase surface only slightly affects its photoactivity in Cr(VI) reduction, which is kinetically limited by the anodic half-reaction, whereas a larger exposure of highly oxidant {001} facets is beneficial for overcoming this rate-determining step. In the photocatalytic oxidation of both formic acid, proceeding through a direct mechanism, and rhodamine B (RhB) on surface fluorinated photocatalysts, occurring through a hydroxyl-radical-mediated mechanism, the presence of gold NPs produces a significant photoactivity increase only with spherically shaped photocatalysts, mainly exposing {101} facets.

In this study, we have designed a novel 1D-0D lead-free Z-scheme heterostructure of BiFeO-ZnS (BFO/ZnS) using an isoelectric point-assistant annealing method for piezocatalytic reactions. The open circuit voltage measurements exhibited a greater internal electric field for BFO/ZnS (90/10) than for individual components, causing its excellent piezocatalytic performance for MTZ antibiotics, organic dyes oxidation, and Cr(VI) reduction. BFO/ZnS (90/10) was treated by corona poling to boost its polarization, resulting in the highest remanent polarization and dielectric constant.
