Tuning the Wettability of Metal–Organic Frameworks via Defect Engineering for Efficient Oil/Water Separation

MIL-100(Fe), a metal organic framework (MOF), is an intrinsic heterogeneous demulsifier which can demulsify O/W and W/O emulsions effectively and resist the negative effects of pH and salinity as well as the degradation of the surfactant.

The focus of discussion of this review is the application of the most recent synthesized hydrophobic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The most promising hydrophobic MOFs are mentioned with their applications and discussed. The various MOFs considered are sub-sectioned into the main application areas, namely alcohol adsorption and oil/water-alcohol/water separation, gas separation and storage, and other applications such as self-cleaning and liquid marbles. Again, the methods of synthesis are briefly described, showing how the features of the end product aid in their applications. The efficiency of the MOF materials and synthesis methods are highlighted and briefly discussed. Lastly, the summary and outlook section concludes the write-up giving suggestions that would be useful to present-day researchers.
