Abstract
In this study, an antibacterial material (CNF@CoMn-NS) with oxidase-like activity was created using ultrathin cobalt‑manganese nanosheets (CoMn-NS) with a larger specific surface area grown onto pineapple peel cellulose nanofibrils (CNF). The results showed that the CoMn-NS grew well on the CNF, and the obtained CNF@CoMn-NS exhibited good oxidase-like activity. The imidazole salt framework of the CNF@CoMn-NS contained cobalt and manganese in multiple oxidation states, enabling an active redox cycle and generating active oxygen species (ROS) such as singlet molecular oxygen atoms (1O2) and superoxide radical (·O2-), resulting in the significant inactivation of Staphylococcus aureus (74.14%) and Escherichia coli (54.87%). Importantly, the CNF@CoMn-NS did not exhibit cytotoxicity. The CNF@CoMn-NS further self-assembled into a CNF@CoMn-NS paper with flexibility, stability, and antibacterial properties, which can effectively protect the wound of two varieties of pears from decay caused by microorganisms. This study demonstrated the potential of using renewable and degradable CNF as substrate combined with artificial enzymes as a promising approach to creating antibacterial materials for food preservation and even extending to textiles and biomedical applications.

Abstract
Soft robots adapt to complex environments for autonomous locomotion, manipulation, and perception are attractive for robot-environment interactions. Strategies to reconcile environment-triggered actuation and self-powered sensing responses to different stimuli remain challenging. By tuning the in situ vapor phase solvent exchange effect in continuous electrospinning, an asymmetric highly-aligned all-fiber membrane (HAFM) with a hierarchical "grape-like" nanosphere-assembled microfiber structure (specific surface area of 13.6 m2 g-1) and excellent mechanical toughness (tensile stress of 5.5 MPa, and fracture toughness of 798 KJ m-3) is developed, which shows efficient asymmetric actuation to both photothermal and humidity stimuli. The HAFM consists of a metal-organic framework (MOF)-enhanced moisture-responsive layer and an MXene-improved photothermal-responsive layer, which achieves substantial actuation with a bending curvature up to ≈7.23 cm-1 and a fast response of 0.60 cm-1 s-1. By tailoring the fiber alignment and bi-layer thickness ratio, different types of micromanipulators, automatic walking robots, and plant robots with programmable structures are demonstrated, which are realized for self-powered information perception of material type, object moisture, and temperature by integrating the autonomous triboelectric effect induced by photothermal-moisture actuation. This work presents fiber materials with programable hierarchical asymmetries and inspires a common strategy for self-powered organism-interface robots to interact with complex environments.

Abstract
Porous organic materials showcasing large framework dynamics present new paths for adsorption and separation with enhanced capacity and selectivity beyond the size-sieving limits, which is attributed to their guest-responsive sorption behaviors. Porous hydrogen-bonded crosslinked organic frameworks (HCOFs) are attractive for their remarkable ability to undergo guest-triggered expansion and contraction facilitated by their flexible covalent crosslinkages. However, the voids of HCOFs remain limited, which restrains the extent of the framework dynamics. In this work, we synthesized a series of HCOFs characterized by unprecedented size expansion capabilities induced by solvents. These HCOFs were constructed by isoreticularly co-crystallizing two complementary sets of hydrogen bonding building blocks to generate porous molecular crystals, which were crosslinked through thiol-ene/yne single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformations. The generated HCOFs exhibit enhanced chemical durability, high crystallinity, and extraordinary framework dynamics. For instance, HCOF-104 crystals featuring a pore diameter of 13.6 Å expanded in DMF to 300 ± 10% of their original lengths within just 1 min. This expansion allows the HCOFs to adsorb guest molecules that are significantly larger than the pore sizes of their crystalline states. Through methanol-induced contraction, these large guests were encapsulated in the fast-contracted HCOFs. These advancements in porous framework dynamics pave the way for new methods of encapsulating guests for targeted delivery.

Abstract
Environmental pollution caused by organic effluents emitted by industry has become a worldwide issue and poses a serious threat to the public and the ecosystem. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), comprising metal-containing clusters and organic bridging ligands, are porous and crystalline materials, possessing fascinating shape and size-dependent properties such as high surface area, abundant active sites, well-defined crystal morphologies, and huge potential for surface functionalization. To date, numerous well designated MOFs have emerged as critical functional materials to solve the growing challenges associated with water environmental issues. Here we present the recent progress of MOF-based materials and their applications in the treatment of organic effluents. Firstly, several traditional and emerging synthesis strategies for MOF composites are introduced. Then, the structural and functional regulations of MOF composites are presented and analyzed. Finally, typical applications of MOF-based materials in treating organic effluents, including chemical, pharmaceutical, textile, and agricultural wastewaters are summarized. Overall, this review is anticipated to tailor design and regulation of MOF-based functional materials for boosting the performance of organic effluent remediation.

Abstract
Soft actuators possessing notable mechanical deformations, high sensitivity, and fast response speed play a crucial role in various applications, such as artificial muscles, soft robots, and intelligent devices. In this study, a smart humidity-driven actuator was successfully fabricated by utilizing MXene/cellulose nanofiber (CNF)/LiCl (MCL) through vacuum-assisted filtration with fast response speed and high sensitivity. Utilizing the excellent humidity responsiveness of MXene/CNF and the robust hygroscopicity of LiCl, the synergistic effect of these materials enhances the hygroscopic properties and response speed of the actuator. The MCL actuator demonstrates excellent actuation performance, fast deformation, and reliable cyclic stability. To illustrate the extensive potential of the soft actuator, a range of applications, from bionic devices to soft grippers and crawling actuators, are showcased. Remarkably, the crawling actuator demonstrates sustained crawling motion without necessitating a humidity switch, relying on the humidity gradient from water droplets, and exhibits spontaneous directional motions within a certain range, which makes it a promising prospect in the field of soft robotics.

Abstract
Herein, we report the unique multiple-stimuli responsiveness of anthracene-tethered o-carborane derivatives. We designed and synthesized anthracene derivatives with different substitution positions and numbers of the o-carborane units. Two compounds had characteristic crystal structures involving the columnar π-stacking structures of the anthracene units. From the analysis of crystalline-state structure-property relationships, it was revealed that the crystals exhibited the photosalient effect accompanied by photochemical [4+4] cycloaddition reactions and temperature-dependent photophysical dual-emission properties including excimer emission of anthracene. Those properties were considered as non-radiative and radiative deactivation pathways through the excimer formation in the excited state and the formation of excimer species was facilitated by the π-stacking structure of anthracene units. Moreover, we found unusual temperature dependency on the occurrence of the photosalient effect. According to the data from variable temperature X-ray crystallography, a strong correlation between lattice shrinkage and strain accumulation is suggested.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with diverse chemistry, structures, and properties have emerged as appealing materials for miniaturized solid-state devices. The incorporation of MOF films in these devices, such as the integrated microelectronics and nanophotonics, requires robust patterning methods. However, existing MOF patterning methods suffer from some combinations of limited material adaptability, compromised patterning resolution and scalability, and degraded properties. Here we report a universal, crosslinking-induced patterning approach for various MOFs, termed as CLIP-MOF. Via resist-free, direct photo- and electron-beam (e-beam) lithography, the ligand crosslinking chemistry leads to drastically reduced solubility of colloidal MOFs, permitting selective removal of unexposed MOF films with developer solvents. This enables scalable, micro-/nanoscale (≈70 nm resolution), and multimaterial patterning of MOFs on large-area, rigid or flexible substrates. Patterned MOF films preserve their crystallinity, porosity, and other properties tailored for targeted applications, such as diffractive gas sensors and electrochromic pixels. The combined features of CLIP-MOF create more possibilities in the system-level integration of MOFs in various electronic, photonic, and biomedical devices.

Abstract
The field of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has progressed beyond the design and exploration of powdery and single-crystalline materials. A current challenge is the fabrication of organized superstructures that can harness the directional properties of the individual constituent MOF crystals. To date, the progress in the fabrication methods of polycrystalline MOF superstructures has led to close-packed structures with defined crystalline orientation. By controlling the crystalline orientation, the MOF pore channels of the constituent crystals can be aligned along specific directions: these systems possess anisotropic properties including enhanced diffusion along specific directions, preferential orientation of guest species, and protection of functional guests. In this perspective, we discuss the current status of MOF research in the fabrication of oriented polycrystalline superstructures focusing on the specific crystalline directions of orientation. Three methods are examined in detail: the assembly from colloidal MOF solutions, the use of external fields for the alignment of MOF particles, and the heteroepitaxial ceramic-to-MOF growth. This perspective aims at promoting the progress of this field of research and inspiring the development of new protocols for the preparation of MOF systems with oriented pore channels, to enable advanced MOF-based devices with anisotropic properties.

Abstract
Quasi-bilayered actuators composed of Fe3O4-decorated graphene oxide and polyvinylidene fluoride have been fabricated in a magnetic field. The actuators could stably respond to multiple stimuli including infrared light, acetone vapour and a magnetic field. The actuator is also patternable because of the magnetism-induced spatial distribution of fillers in the matrix.

Abstract
Autonomous object manipulation and perception with environmental factor-triggered and self-powered actuation is one of the most attractive directions for developing next-generation soft robotics with a smart human-machine-environment interface. Humidity, as a sustainable energy source ubiquitous in the surrounding environment, can be used for triggering smart grippers. In this work, it is proposed that by contacts between the gripper and objects upon humidity-induced actuation, real-time distinguishable triboelectric signals can be generated to realize the humidity-driven object manipulation and identification. Herein, a thermo-modified electrospun polyvinylpyrrolidone/poly(acrylic acid)/MIL-88A (T-PPM) nanofibrous film with micro-to-nano cross-scale porosity is developed, and a bilayer humidity-responsive actuator (T-HRA) was designed, mimicking the tamariskoid spikemoss to enhance the humidity-driven actuation. The breathing effect of MIL-88A and hierarchical porous structure of the T-PPM facilitate moisture diffusion and offer huge actuation (2.41 cm-1) with a fast response (0.084 cm-1 s-1). For autonomous object manipulation perception, T-PPM was verified as a tribo-positive material located between paper and silk. Accordingly, the T-HRA was demonstrated as a smart soft gripper that generates a different electric signal upon contact with objects of different material. This work proposes a concept of soft robots that are interactive with the environment for both autonomous object manipulation and information acquisition.

Abstract
As the majority of known metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) possess anisotropic crystal lattices and thus anisotropic physicochemical properties, a pressing practical challenge in MOF research is the establishment of robust and simple processing methods to fully harness the anisotropic properties of the MOFs in various applications. We address this challenge by applying an E-field to precisely align MIL-88A microcrystals and generate MIL-88A@polymer films. Thereafter, we demonstrate the impact of MOF crystal alignment on the actuation properties of the films as a proof of concept. We investigate how different anisotropies of the MIL-88A@polymer films, specifically, crystal anisotropy, particle alignment, and film composition, can lead to the synergetic enhancement of the film actuation upon water exposure. Moreover, we explore how the directionality in application of the external stimuli (dry/humid air stream, water/air interface) affects the direction and the extent of the MIL-88A@polymer film movement. Apart from the superior water-driven actuation properties of the developed films, we demonstrate by dynamometer measurements the higher degree of mechanical work performed by the aligned MIL-88A@polymer films with the preserved anisotropies compared to the unaligned films. The insights provided by this work into anisotropic properties displayed by aligned MIL-88A@polymer films promise to translate crystal performance benefits measured in laboratories into real-world applications. We anticipate that our work is a starting point to utilize the full potential of anisotropic properties of MOFs.

Abstract
Inspired by nature, humidity-responsive materials and devices have attracted significant interest from scientists in multiple disciplines, ranging from chemistry, physics and materials science to biomimetics. Owing to their superiorities, including harmless stimulus and untethered control, humidity-driven materials have been widely investigated for application in soft robots, smart sensors and detectors, biomimetic devices and anticounterfeiting labels. Especially, humidity-responsive liquid crystalline materials are particularly appealing due to the combination of programmable and adaptive liquid crystal matrix and humidity-controllability, enabling the fabrication of advanced self-adaptive robots and visualized sensors. In this review, we summarize the recent progress in humidity-driven liquid crystalline materials. First, a brief introduction of liquid crystal materials, including liquid crystalline polymers, cholesteric liquid crystals, blue-phase liquid crystals and cholesteric cellulose nanocrystals is provided. Subsequently, the mechanisms of humidity-responsiveness are presented, followed by the diverse strategies for the fabrication of humidity-responsive liquid crystalline materials. The applications of humidity-driven devices will be presented ranging from soft actuators to visualized sensors and detectors. Finally, we provide an outlook on the development of humidity-driven liquid crystalline materials.

Abstract
Bombyx mori silk with a nanoscale porous architecture significantly deforms in response to changes in relative humidity. Despite the increasing amount of water adsorption and water-responsive strain with increasing porosity of the silk, there is a range of porosities that result in silk's optimal water-responsive energy density at 3.1 MJ m-3. Our findings show the possibility of controlling water-responsive materials' swelling pressure by controlling their nanoporosities.

Abstract
Shapeshifting materials have captured the imagination of researchers for their myriad potential applications, yet their practical development remains challenging. These materials operate by mechanical actuation: their structural responses to external stimuli generate mechanical work. Here, we review progress on the use of flexible metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in composite actuators that shapeshift in a controlled fashion. We highlight the dynamic behaviour of flexible MOFs, which are unique among materials, even other porous ones, and introduce the concept of propagation, which involves the efficient transmission of flexible MOF deformations to the macroscale. Furthermore, we explain how researchers can observe, measure, and induce such effects in MOF composites. Next, we review pioneering first-generation MOF-composite actuators that shapeshift in response to changes in humidity, temperature, pressure, or to other stimuli. Finally, we allude to recent developments, identify remaining R & D hurdles, and suggest future directions in this field.

Abstract
Breathing behaviour in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), the distinctive transformation between a porous phase and a less (or non) porous phase, often controls the uptake of guest molecules, endowing flexible MOFs with highly selective gas adsorptive properties. In highly flexible topologies, breathing can be tuned by linker modification, which is typically achieved pre-synthetically using functionalised linkers. Herein, it was shown that MIL-88A(Sc) exhibits the characteristic flexibility of its topology, which can be tuned by 1) modifying synthetic conditions to yield a formate-buttressed analogue that is rigid and porous; and 2) postsynthetic bromination across the alkene functionality of the fumarate ligand, generating a product that is rigid but non-porous. In addition to providing different methodologies for tuning the flexibility and breathing behaviour of this archetypal MOF, it was shown that bromination of the formate-bridged analogue results in an identical material, representing a rare example of two different MOFs being postsynthetically converted to the same end product.

Abstract
Shape-programmable hydrogel-based soft actuators that can adaptively respond to external stimuli are of paramount significance for the development of bioinspired aquatic smart soft robots. Herein, we report the design and synthesis of near-infrared (NIR) light-driven hydrogel actuators through in situ photopolymerization of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) hydrogels loaded with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) onto the surface of the poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) thin film. The MOFs can not only function as an excellent photothermal nanotransducer but also accelerate the adsorption/desorption of water due to their porous nanostructure, which speeds up the response rate of the actuators. Shape-programmable hydrogel actuators are fabricated by tailoring the patterning of PDMS thin film, and thus different shape-morphing modes such as directional bending and chiral twisting are observed under the NIR light irradiations. As the proof-of-concept demonstrations, an artificial hand, biomimetic mimosa, and flower are conceptualized with light-driven MOF-containing hydrogel actuators. Interestingly, we are able to achieve an octopus-inspired light-driven soft swimmer upon cyclic NIR illumination due to the fast photoresponsiveness of as-prepared hydrogel actuators. This work can offer insights for fabricating programmable and reconfigurable smart aquatic soft actuators, thus shining a light into their potential applications in emerging fields including soft robots, biomedical devices, and beyond.

Abstract
Ambient humidity plays an important role in the fields of industrial and agricultural production, food and drug storage, climate monitoring, and maintenance of precision instruments. To sense and control humidity, humidity-responsive actuators that mimick humidity responsive behavior existing in nature, have attracted intense attention. The most common and important class of humidity actuators is active bilayer structures. However, such bilayer structures generally show weak interfacial adhesion, tending to delaminate during frequent bending and restoration cycles. In this work, to address this problem, a novel monolayer humidity-driven actuator with no adhesive issue is developed by integrating the swellable metal-organic frameworks (MIL-88A) into thermoplastic polyurethane films. The proposed actuators display excellent humidity response that under the conditions of relative humidity simulated with saturated salt solution, the MIL-88A/polyurethane composite films show good self-folding response and stability for recycling use. In addition, a deep insight into the self-folding of the composite films is also provided and a new response mechanism is proposed. In this case, the results show that both the preparation method and response properties of the humidity actuators are improved. Therefore, it suggests a new promising way to develop and design flexible humidity actuators.

Abstract
The development of high-performance humidity sensors is of great significance to explore their practical applications in the fields of environment, energy saving and safety monitoring. Herein, a flexible, non-contact and multifunctional humidity sensor based on two-dimensional Co-metal organic frameworks (Co-MOF) nanosheets is proposed, which is fabricated by simple bottom-up synthesis method. Furthermore, environmentally friendly, renewable and abundant biomass phytic acid (PA) is modified on the surface of Co-MOF nanosheets, which releases free protons being capable of etching the framework of MOF to improve the hydrophilicity and conductivity of MOF. Compared with Co-MOF-based sensor, the Co-MOF@PA-based sensor exhibits significantly enhanced sensitivity and broadened response range within 23-95% relative humidity (RH). The humidity sensor has an excellent humidity sensing response over 2 × 103. The Co-MOF@PA-based sensor shows good flexibility and humidity sensing properties, endowing it with multifunctional applications in real-time facial respiration monitoring, skin humidity perception, cosmetic moisturizing evaluation and fruit freshness testing. Four respiration patterns, including slow breath, deep breath, normal breath and fast breath are wirelessly monitored in real time by Co-MOF@PA-based sensor and recorded by mobile phone software. The research work presents potential applications in human-machine interactions (HMI) devices in future.

Abstract
Flexible metal-organic framework (MOF) materials have the ability to perform stimulated sudden volume contractions, and thus attract increasing attention for use in potential applications such as: actuators or sensors. Here, the structural transition of MIL-53(Cr) loaded with a high concentration of CH3OH (CH3OH) guest molecules, which cause internal pressure due to guest-guest interactions, was investigated. The pressure triggering the structural transition can be enhanced by high guest molecule loadings (1 CH3OH per unit cell (UC): 5 MPa, empty: 53 MPa, 7 CH3OH per UC: 90 MPa, and 8 CH3OH per UC: 280 MPa). The asymmetrical and small distortion of the organic-inorganic connections are the main microscopic characteristic of the structural transition of MIL-53(Cr) with a high CH3OH loading. The external pressure and the internal pressure, instead of the adsorption of the guest molecules, became dominant in the structural transition of MIL-53(Cr). Current studies showed that the high-pressure response of the flexible MOF structure may broaden the acceptable pressure range in future actuator or sensor applications.

Abstract
Water is a significant and abundant resource as well as a pure natural energy source. Many researchers have been reported on humidity-responsive actuators that mimick the humidity responsive behavior that widely exists in nature. Benefiting from advantages such as hydrophilicity, high electrical conductivity, and good dispersibility, MXenes (Ti3 C2 Tx ) show promising performance when applied to humidity-responsive actuators. This Minireview describes the preparation methods and structural characteristics of MXenes, and the mechanism of humidity-responsive actuators. Recent important advances of MXene materials in actuators are objectively reviewed and evaluated, and existing issues are discussed. In addition, the development of these systems is outlined from the aspects of MXene preparation, structure control, design and assembly, and applications, and provides new ideas and guidance for the development of the next generation of high-performance MXene-based humidity-responsive actuators.

Abstract
In nature and synthetic materials, asymmetry is a useful tool to create complex and functional systems constructed from a limited number of building blocks. Reticular chemistry has allowed the synthesis of a wide range of discrete and extended structures, from which modularity permits the controlled assembly of their constituents to generate asymmetric configurations of pores or architectures. In this perspective, we present the different strategies to impart directional asymmetry over nano/meso/macroscopic length scales in porous materials and the resulting novel properties and applications. Design strategies for the controlled assembly of discrete and extended reticular materials with asymmetric configurations of pores or architectures.![]()

Abstract
Herein we report the design, synthesis, structural characterisation and functional testing of a series of Cu(ii) coordination polymers containing flexible 4,4'-dithiodibenzoate ligand (4,4'-DTBA), with or without auxiliary N-donor ligands. Reaction of Cu(ii) with 4,4'-DTBA yielded a 1D coordination polymer (1) based on Cu(ii) paddlewheel units connected by 4,4'-DTBA, to form cyclic loop chains with intramolecular voids that exhibit reversible structural transformations upon subsequent solvent exchange in methanol to afford a new, crystalline, permanently-porous structure (1'). However, when the same reaction was run with pyridine, it formed a porous 2D coordination polymer (2). We have attributed the difference in dimensionality seen in the two products to the coordination of pyridine on the axial site of the Cu(ii) paddle-wheel, which forces flexible 4,4'-DTBA to adopt a different conformation. Reactions in the presence of 4,4'-bipyridine (4,4'-bpy) afforded two new, flexible, 2D coordination polymers (3 & 4). Lower concentrations of 4,4'-bpy afforded a structure (3) built from 1D chains analogous to those in 1 and connected through 4,4'-bpy linkers coordinated to the axial positions. Interestingly, 3 showed reversible structural transformations triggered by either solvent exchange or thermal treatment, each of which yielded a new crystalline and permanently porous phase (3'). Finally, use of higher concentrations of 4,4'-bpy led to a coordination polymer (4) based on a distorted CuO3N2 trigonal bipyramid, rather than on the Cu(ii) paddlewheel. The connection of these motifs by 4,4'-DTBA resulted in a zig-zag 1D chain connected through 4,4'-bpy ligands to form a porous 2D network. Interestingly, 4 also underwent reversible thermal transformation to yield a microporous coordination polymer (4').

Abstract
As a crucial instinct for the survival of organisms, adaptive smart deformation has been well shown via profusely astounding examples within biological morphogenesis in nature, which inspired the construction of biomimetic shape-morphing materials with controlled actuating behaviors. Herein, the construction of nature-inspired bilayer hydrogel film actuators, composed of a polyacrylamide hydrogel passive layer and a polyacrylamide-DNA hybrid hydrogel active layer, which exhibited programmable stimuli-responsive and reversible macroscopic shape deformations directed by the sequence of DNA crosslinking units in the active layer, is reported. As a proof-of-concept, the introduction of DNA i-motif based crosslinking structures into the active layer, which can undergo pH-stimulated formation and dissociation of crosslinking between polymers and therefore change the crosslinking density of the active layer, lead to the redistribution of the internal stresses within the bilayer structure, and result in the pH-stimulated shape deformations. By programming the sequence of DNA units in the active layer, a Ag+ /Cysteamine-stimulated bilayer DNA hybrid hydrogel film actuator is further constructed and exhibits excellent actuation behaviors. Thanks to the micrometer-scale thickness of the films, these actuators exhibit a high degree of macroscopic and reversible shape deformations at high speed, which may find use in future smart biosensing and biomedical applications.

Abstract
Due to their precisely modifiable microporosity and chemical functionality, Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have revolutionized catalysis, separations, gas storage, drug delivery, and sensors. However, because of their rigid and brittle powder morphology, it is challenging to build customizable MOF shapes with tunable mechanical properties. Here, we describe a new three-dimensional (3D) printing approach to create stretchable and tough MOF hydrogel structures with tunable mechanical properties. We formulate a printable ink by combining prepolymers of a versatile double network (DN) hydrogel of acrylamide and alginate, a shear-thinning agent, and MOF ligands. Importantly, by simultaneous cross-linking of alginate and in situ growth of the HKUST-1 using copper ions, we are able to create composites with high MOF dispersity in the DN hydrogel matrix with high pore accessibility. We extensively characterize the inks and uncover parameters to tune modulus, strength, and toughness of the 3D prints. We also demonstrate the excellent performance of the MOF hydrogels for dye absorption. Our approach incorporates all of the advantageous attributes of 3D printing while offering a rational approach to merge stretchable hydrogels and MOFs, and our findings are of broad relevance to wearables, implantable and flexible sensors, chemical separations, and soft robotics.

Abstract
Recognising timescale as an adjustable dimension in porous solids provides a new perspective to develop novel four-dimensional framework materials. The deliberate design of three-dimensional porous framework architectures is a developed field; however, the understanding of dynamics in open frameworks leaves a number of key questions unanswered: What factors determine the spatiotemporal evolution of deformable networks? Can we deliberately engineer the response of dynamic materials along a time-axis? How can we engineer energy barriers for the selective recognition of molecules? Answering these questions will require significant methodological development to understand structural dynamics across a range of time and length scales.

Abstract
New metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based on flexible tetra-carboxylate ligands and Cu(II) are designed to gain stimuli-responsive materials. Unstable MOFs can be more stable with unabated flexibility by replacing coordinated solvent molecules with auxiliary N-based ligands. Two of them are intensively studied by in situ single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) analysis and the unit cell parameters during transformations have been observed in detail. They undergo exceptional structural transformations which can be divided into two processes: the thermal-responsive phase transition and the solvent-responsive phase transition. The thermal-responsive phase transition takes place in a narrow temperature interval reversibly. However, the solvent-responsive phase transition is a gradual and irreversible process. The stimuli-responsive mechanism has also been explored by comparing the parameters of the crystal structures under different temperatures. Fascinatingly, their exceptional structural transformations correlate with the flexibility of the ligand fragments and the [Cu2(RCOO)4] clusters.

Abstract
Iron(III) aminoterephthalate Metal-Organic Frameworks (Fe-BDC-NH2 MOFs) have been demonstrated to show potential for relevant industrial and societal applications (i.e., catalysis, drug delivery, gas sorption). Nevertheless, further analysis is required in order to achieve their commercial production. In this work, a systematic synthetic strategy has been followed, carrying out microwave (MW) assisted hydro/solvothermal reactions to rapidly evaluate the influence of different reaction parameters (e.g., time, temperature, concentration, reaction media) on the formation of the benchmarked MIL-101-NH2, MIL-88B-NH2, MIL-53-NH2 and MIL-68-NH2 solids. Characterization of the obtained solids by powder X-ray diffraction, dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy allowed us to identify trends to the contribution of the evaluated parameters, such as the relevance of the concentration of precursors and the impact of the reaction medium on phase crystallization. Furthermore, we presented here for the first time the MW assisted synthesis of MIL-53-NH2 in water. In addition, pure MIL-101-NH2 was also produced in water while MIL-88-NH2 was the predominant phase obtained in ethanol. Pure phases were produced with high space-time yields, unveiling the potential of MW synthesis for MOF industrialization.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are inherently crystalline, brittle porous solids. Conversely, polymers are flexible, malleable, and processable solids that are used for a broad range of commonly used technologies. The stark differences between the nature of MOFs and polymers has motivated efforts to hybridize crystalline MOFs and flexible polymers to produce composites that retain the desired properties of these disparate materials. Importantly, studies have shown that MOFs can be used to influence polymer structure, and polymers can be used to modulate MOF growth and characteristics. In this Review, we highlight the development and recent advances in the synthesis of MOF-polymer mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) and applications of these MMMs in gas and liquid separations and purifications, including aqueous applications such as dye removal, toxic heavy metal sequestration, and desalination. Other elegant ways of synthesizing MOF-polymer hybrid materials, such as grafting polymers to and from MOFs, polymerization of polymers within MOFs, using polymers to template MOFs, and the bottom-up synthesis of polyMOFs and polyMOPs are also discussed. This review highlights recent papers in the advancement of MOF-polymer hybrid materials, as well as seminal reports that significantly advanced the field.

Abstract
The fabrication of metal-organic framework (MOF)-based macro-materials is considered as a promising strategy toward the practical applications of powdered MOF crystals. In this study, selective laser sintering (SLS), an advanced three-dimensional (3D) powder printing technique, has been employed to fabricate MOF-polymer mixed matrix films (MMFs) by using thermoplastic polyamide 12 (PA12) powder as the matrix material and five types of MOFs including ZIF-67, NH2-MIL-101(Al), MOF-801, HKUST-1, and ZIF-8 crystals as the fillers. A three-layer HKUST-1-PA12 complex with a grid pattern is fabricated to demonstrate the printability of 3D MOF-polymer structure. Single-layer MMFs with grid patterns are printed by using the five types of MOF fillers with different mass loadings to study their free-standing characteristic, thickness, specific surface area, hydrophilia, water permeate flux, and mechanical stability. The methylene blue (MB) adsorption tests are conducted using the NH2-MIL-101(Al)-PA12 MMFs with different grid patterns to exemplify the applications of the MMFs for water purification. It is confirmed that the MOF components retain their high maximum adsorption capacity, and the printed MMFs can be conveniently regenerated for cyclic utilization. This work provides an insight into the utilization of advanced 3D printing technology to manufacture macro-MOF-polymer materials for practical applications.

Abstract
Soft porous crystals (SPCs) that exhibit stimuli-responsive dynamic sorption behavior are attracting interest for gas storage/separation applications. However, the design and synthesis of SPCs is challenging. Herein, we report a new type of SPC based on a [2 + 3] imide-based organic cage (NKPOC-1) and find that it exhibits guest-induced breathing behavior. Various gases were found to induce activated NKPOC-1 crystals to reversibly switch from a "closed" nonporous phase (α) to two porous "open" phases (β and γ). The net effect is gate-opening behavior induced by CO2 and C3 hydrocarbons. Interestingly, NKPOC-1-α selectively adsorbs propyne over propylene and propane under ambient conditions. Thus, NKPOC-1-α has the potential to separate binary and ternary C3 hydrocarbon mixtures, and the performance was subsequently verified by fixed bed column breakthrough experiments. In addition, molecular dynamics calculations and in situ X-ray diffraction experiments indicate that the gate-opening effect is accompanied by reversible structural transformations. The adsorption energies from molecular dynamics simulations aid are consistent with the experimentally observed selective adsorption phenomena. The understanding gained from this study of NKPOC-1 supports the further development of SPCs for applications in gas separation/storage because SPCs do not inherently suffer from the recyclability problems often encountered with rigid materials.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2019; 31:e1808235.

Abstract
The integration of swellable metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into polymeric composite films is a straightforward strategy to develop soft materials that undergo reversible shape transformations derived from the intrinsic flexibility of MOF crystals. However, a crucial step toward their practical application relies on the ability to attain specific and programmable actuation, which enables the design of self-shaping objects on demand. Herein, a chemical etching method is demonstrated for the fabrication of patterned composite films showing tunable self-folding response, predictable and reversible 2D-to-3D shape transformations triggered by water adsorption/desorption. These films are fabricated by selective removal of swellable MOF crystals allowing control over their spatial distribution within the polymeric film. Upon exposure to moisture, various programmable 3D architectures, which include a mechanical gripper, a lift, and a unidirectional walking device, are generated. Remarkably, these 2D-to-3D shape transformations can be reversed by light-induced desorption. The reported strategy offers a platform for fabricating flexible MOF-based autonomous soft mechanical devices with functionalities for micromanipulation, automation, and robotics.
