Diatomite is extensively used as a natural environmental material because of its biogenic origin and stable structure. The zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) is a prototypical metal-organic frame (MOF) that is well known for its high surface areas and chemical stability. Herein, a facile method for the generation of diatomite in situ loaded by ZIF-8 (D/Z) was reported. The results of powder x-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis confirmed the successful loading of ZIF-8 on the diatomite. The ZIF-8 were distributed uniformly on the surface of the diatomite from the scanning electron microscope (SEM) images. The specific surface of the D/Z increased due to the loading of the ZIF-8. Methylene orange (MO-) in an aqueous form was efficiently separated and removed through a simple mixture and filtration process where the D/Z was employed as an absorbent, and the removal rate of the MO- increased in the case of the sample with more ZIF-8 loaded on the diatomite. In addition, the D/Z was reused after several regenerations by washing out the adsorbed dye.

Abstract In this study, a simple, general and straightforward method for growing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) crystals directly on nanofibers is presented. A chelating polymer was first blent with metal cation and then electrospun. The obtained nanofibers were immersed in a linker solution. Metal cations were released and the metal-organic frameworks crystals were grown on the fibers’ surface. In this work, this method was tested with polyvinyl alcohol as chelating polymer, Zn2+ as metal cation and Terephthalic acid as linker. The pair cation/linker corresponds to the MOF-5. The latter is a robust metal organic framework formed from Zn4O nodes with 1,4-benzodicarboxylic acid struts between the nodes. SEM images revealed that the MOF-5 nanocrystals have grown along the PVA/Zn2+ nanofibers that served as the crystals’ growth template by providing the Zn2+ ions. This result was also confirmed by infrared spectroscopy, which indicates the presence of characteristic bands of MOF-5 in the modified nanofibers spectrum. Moreover, the X-ray diffraction showed that MOF-5 material was well crystallized on the nanofibers surface according to a cubic symmetry with a space group Fm-3m and a lattice constant a = 25.8849 Å.

La-Nd co-doped barium hexaferrites, Ba0.7(LamNdn)0.3Fe12O19 (D-BaM), were successfully prepared by sol-gel method. PANI / D-BaM composites were synthesized by in-situ polymerization in solution. The structure, morphology and properties of samples have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), four-probe conductivity tester and vector network analyzer. The XRD patterns showed that the crystal structure of all the samples exist as M-type phases. The SEM images revealed that the particles presented a hexagonal platelet-like morphology. The magnetic properties could be improved by substitutions of La and Nd ions. The saturation magnetization (Ms) and coercive force (Hc) increased with the change of La / Nd ratio to the maximum at La / Nd = 3:1. The doped particles have also been embedded in conductive PANI to prepare electromagnetic materials, and the conductivity kept on the order of 10-2. The microwave absorbing properties of composites at 30 MHz-6 GHz improved obviously, the peak value of reflection loss could reach-7.5 dB.

Cellulosic Paper

The combination of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) with other functional materials is a potential strategy for the preparation of advanced MOF-based materials. In this study, a simple approach is reported for the fabrication of cellulosic paper containing zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) through in-situ loading in the papermaking process. The results showed that the ZIF-8 was evenly distributed in the paper substrate owing to the multi-layers structure of the cellulosic fibers, although the loading of the ZIF-8 particles on the single cellulosic fiber was nonuniform. The as-prepared ZIF-8 composites can be used as a highly efficient adsorbent material for anionic dyes in aqueous solution thanks to the positive charge on the surface of the ZIF-8 particles. More than 92% of the methyl orange (MO-) dye in the aqueous solution was rapidly removed through a simple filtration process using the ZIF-8 composite cellulosic paper (hand-sheets made in lab) when the content of ZIF-8 in cellulosic paper was high as 25.1%. In addition, the ZIF-8 composite paper had acceptable flexibility and could be reused at least 4 cycles by washing out the adsorbed dye.

Variation in the metal centres of M-M paddle-wheel SBU results in the formation of isostructural DUT-49(M) frameworks. However, the porosity of the framework was found to be different for each of the structures. While a high and moderate porosity was obtained for DUT-49(Cu) and DUT-49(Ni), respectively, other members of the series [DUT-49(M); M= Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, Cd] show very low porosity and shapes of the adsorption isotherms which is not expected for op phases of these MOFs. Investigation on those MOFs revealed that those frameworks undergo structural collapse during the solvent removal at the activation step. Thus, herein, we aimed to study the detailed structural transformations that are possibly occurring during the removal of the subcritical fluid from the framework.

<p>Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are known for their versatile combination of inorganic building units and organic linkers, which offers immense opportunities in a wide range of applications. However, many MOFs are typically synthesized as multiphasic polycrystalline powders, which are challenging for studies by X-ray diffraction. Therefore, developing new structural characterization techniques is highly desired in order to accelerate discoveries of new materials. Here, we report a high-throughput approach for structural analysis of MOF nano- and sub-microcrystals by three-dimensional electron diffraction (3DED). A new zeolitic-imidazolate framework (ZIF), denoted ZIF-EC1<a>, </a>was first discovered in a trace amount during the study of a known ZIF-CO<sub>3</sub>-1 material by 3DED. The structures of both ZIFs were solved and refined using 3DED data. ZIF-EC1 has a dense 3D framework structure, which is built by linking mono- and bi-nuclear Zn clusters and 2-methylimidazolates (mIm<sup>-</sup>). With a composition of Zn<sub>3</sub>(mIm)<sub>5</sub>(OH), ZIF-EC1 exhibits high N and Zn densities. We show that the N-doped carbon material derived from ZIF-EC1 is a promising electrocatalysis for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The discovery of this new MOF and its conversion to an efficient electrocatalyst highlights the power of 3DED in developing new materials and their applications. </p>
