Abstract
Synthesis and characterization of DEMOFs (defect-engineered metal-organic frameworks) with coordinatively unsaturated sites (CUSs) for gas adsorption, catalysis, and separation are reported. We use the mixed-linker approach to introduce defects in Cu2-paddle wheel units of MOFs [Cu2(Me-trz-ia)2] by replacing up to 7% of the 3-methyl-triazolyl isophthalate linker (1L2-) with the "defective linker" 3-methyl-triazolyl m-benzoate (2L-), causing uncoordinated equatorial sites. PXRD of DEMOFs shows broadened reflections; IR and Raman analysis demonstrates only marginal changes as compared to the regular MOF (ReMOF, without a defective linker). The concentration of the integrated defective linker in DEMOFs is determined by 1H NMR and HPLC, while PXRD patterns reveal that DEMOFs maintain phase purity and crystallinity. Combined XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) and cw EPR (continuous wave electron paramagnetic resonance) spectroscopy analyses provide insights into the local structure of defective sites and charge balance, suggesting the presence of two types of defects. Notably, an increase in CuI concentration is observed with incorporation of defective linkers, correlating with the elevated isosteric heat of adsorption (ΔHads). Overall, this approach offers valuable insights into the creation and evolution of CUSs within MOFs through the integration of defective linkers.

Abstract
Hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) are emerging porous materials that show high structural flexibility, mild synthetic conditions, good solution processability, easy healing and regeneration, and good recyclability. Although these properties give them many potential multifunctional applications, their frameworks are unstable due to the presence of only weak and reversible hydrogen bonds. In this work, the development history and synthesis methods of HOFs are reviewed, and categorize their structural design concepts and strategies to improve their stability. More importantly, due to the significant potential of the latest HOF-related research for addressing energy and environmental issues, this work discusses the latest advances in the methods of energy storage and conversion, energy substance generation and isolation, environmental detection and isolation, degradation and transformation, and biological applications. Furthermore, a discussion of the coupling orientation of HOF in the cross-cutting fields of energy and environment is presented for the first time. Finally, current challenges, opportunities, and strategies for the development of HOFs to advance their energy and environmental applications are discussed.

Abstract
In this study, alumina ceramics with hierarchical pores were successfully fabricated using freeze casting. Experimental studies show that both the solid loading of the slurry and the thermal insulation layer at the interface of the slurry and cooling plate can influence the pore characteristics of cast samples. In order to examine the pore characteristics and evaluate the permeability of the freeze-cast samples fabricated under different conditions, a generative adversarial network (GAN) method was employed to reconstruct the three-dimensional (3D) microstructure from two-dimensional (2D) scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the samples. Furthermore, GAN 3D reconstruction was validated against X-ray tomography 3D reconstruction results. Based on the GAN reconstructed microstructures, the permeability and pore distribution of the various samples were analyzed. The sample cast with 35 wt.% solid loading shows an optimal permeability.

Mg-MOF-74 Derived Defective Framework for Hydrogen Storage at Above-Ambient Temperature Assisted by Pt Catalyst. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024; 11:e2401868.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising candidates for room-temperature hydrogen storage materials after modification, thanks to their ability to chemisorb hydrogen. However, the hydrogen adsorption strength of these modified MOFs remains insufficient to meet the capacity and safety requirements of hydrogen storage systems. To address this challenge, a highly defective framework material known as de-MgMOF is prepared by gently annealing Mg-MOF-74. This material retains some of the crystal properties of the original Mg-MOF-74 and exhibits exceptional hydrogen storage capacity at above-ambient temperatures. The MgO5 knots around linker vacancies in de-MgMOF can adsorb a significant amount of dissociated and nondissociated hydrogen, with adsorption enthalpies ranging from -22.7 to -43.6 kJ mol-1, indicating a strong chemisorption interaction. By leveraging a spillover catalyst of Pt, the material achieves a reversible hydrogen storage capacity of 2.55 wt.% at 160 °C and 81 bar. Additionally, this material offers rapid hydrogen uptake/release, stable cycling, and convenient storage capabilities. A comprehensive techno-economic analysis demonstrates that this material outperforms many other hydrogen storage materials at the system level for on-board applications.

Biomimicking covalent organic frameworks nanocomposite coating for integrated enhanced anticorrosion and antifouling properties of a biodegradable magnesium stent. Acta Biomater 2024; 180:183-196. [PMID: 38604465 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.04.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/13/2024]
Abstract
The utilization of biodegradable magnesium (Mg) alloys in the fabrication of temporary non-vascular stents is an innovative trend in biomedical engineering. However, the heterogeneous degradation profiles of these biomaterials, together with potential bacterial colonization that could precipitate infectious or stenotic complications, are critical obstacles precluding their widespread clinical application. In pursuit of overcoming these limitations, this study applies the principles of biomimicry, particularly the hydrophobic and anti-fouling characteristics of lotus leaves, to pioneer the creation of nanocomposite coatings. These coatings integrate poly-trimethylene carbonate (PTMC) with covalent organic frameworks (COFs), to modify the stent's surface property. The strategic design of the coating's topography, porosity, and self-polishing capabilities collectively aims to decelerate degradation processes and minimize biological adhesion. The protective qualities of the coatings were substantiated through rigorous testing in both in vitro dynamic bile tests and in vivo New Zealand rabbit choledochal models. Empirical findings from these trials confirmed that the implementation of COF-based nanocomposite coatings robustly fortifies Mg implantations, conferring heightened resistance to both biocorrosion and biofouling as well as improved biocompatibility within bodily environments. The outcomes of this research elucidate a comprehensive framework for the multifaceted strategies against stent corrosion and fouling, thereby charting a visionary pathway toward the systematic conception of a new class of reliable COF-derived surface modifications poised to amplify the efficacy of Mg-based stents. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Biodegradable magnesium (Mg) alloys are widely utilized in temporary stents, though their rapid degradation and susceptibility to bacterial infection pose significant challenges. Our research has developed a nanocomposite coating inspired by the lotus, integrating poly-trimethylene carbonate with covalent organic frameworks (COF). The coating achieved self-polishing property and optimal surface energy on the Mg substrate, which decelerates stent degradation and reduces biofilm formation. Comprehensive evaluations utilizing dynamic bile simulations and implantation in New Zealand rabbit choledochal models reveal that the coating improves the durability and longevity of the stent. The implications of these findings suggest the potential COF-based Mg alloy stent surface treatments and a leap forward in advancing stent performance and endurance in clinical applications.

Abstract
In this study, we investigate the flow dynamics in a fixed bed of hydrogel beads using particle tracking velocimetry to compute the velocity field in the middle of the bed for moderate Reynolds numbers (Re=[124,169,203,211]). We discover that even though the flow is stationary at the larger scales, it exhibits complex multiscale spatial dynamics reminiscent of those observed in classical turbulence. We find evidence of the presence of an inertial range and a direct energy cascade, and are able to obtain a value for a "porous" Kolmogorov constant of C_{2}=3.1±0.3. This analogy with turbulence opens up new possibilities for understanding mixing and global transport properties in porous media.

Abstract
Utilizing hydrogen as a viable substitute for fossil fuels requires the exploration of hydrogen storage materials with high capacity, high quality, and effective reversibility at room temperature. In this study, the stability and capacity for hydrogen storage in the Sc-modified C3N4 nanotube are thoroughly examined through the application of density functional theory (DFT). Our finding indicates that a strong coupling between the Sc-3d orbitals and N-2p orbitals stabilizes the Sc-modified C3N4 nanotube at a high temperature (500 K), and the high migration barrier (5.10 eV) between adjacent Sc atoms prevents the creation of metal clusters. Particularly, it has been found that each Sc-modified C3N4 nanotube is capable of adsorbing up to nine H2 molecules, and the gravimetric hydrogen storage density is calculated to be 7.29 wt%. It reveals an average adsorption energy of -0.20 eV, with an estimated average desorption temperature of 258 K. This shows that a Sc-modified C3N4 nanotube can store hydrogen at low temperatures and harness it at room temperature, which will reduce energy consumption and protect the system from high desorption temperatures. Moreover, charge donation and reverse transfer from the Sc-3d orbital to the H-1s orbital suggest the presence of the Kubas effect between the Sc-modified C3N4 nanotube and H2 molecules. We draw the conclusion that a Sc-modified C3N4 nanotube exhibits exceptional potential as a stable and efficient hydrogen storage substrate.

Triazine-Carbazole-Based Covalent Organic Frameworks as Efficient Heterogeneous Photocatalysts for the Oxidation of N-aryltetrahydroisoquinolines. CHEMSUSCHEM 2024:e202301916.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have attracted growing interests as new material platform for a range of applications. In this study, a triazine-carbazole-based covalent organic framework (COF-TCZ) was designed as highly porous material with conjugated donor-acceptor networks, and feasibly synthesized by the Schiff condensation of 4,4',4''-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyl)tr ianiline (TAPB) and 9-(4-formylphenyl)-9H-carbazole-3,6-dicarbaldehyde (CZTA) under the solvothermal condition. Considering the effect of linkage, the imine-linked COF-TCZ was further oxidized to obtain an amide-linked covalent organic framework (COF-TCZ-O). The as-synthesized COFs show high crystallinity, good thermal and chemical stability, and excellent photoactive properties. Two π-conjugated triazine-carbazole-based COFs with tunable linkages are beneficial for light-harvesting capacity and charge separation efficiency, which are empolyed as photocatalysts for the oxidation reaction of N-aryltetrahydroisoquinoline. The COFs catalyst systems exhibit the outstanding photocatalytic performance with high conversion, photostability and recyclability. Photoelectrochemical tests were employed to examine the behavior of photogenerated charge carriers in photo-illumination system. The control experiments provide further insights into the nature of photocatalysis. In addition, the current research also provided a valuable approach for developing photofunctional COFs to meet challenge in achieving the great potential of COFs materials in organic conversion.

Abstract
Hydrogen storage is crucial in the shift toward a carbon-neutral society, where hydrogen serves as a pivotal renewable energy source. Utilizing porous materials can provide an efficient hydrogen storage solution, reducing tank pressures to manageable levels and circumventing the energy-intensive and costly current technological infrastructure. Herein, two highly porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs), C-PAF and Si-PAF, prepared through a Yamamoto C─C coupling reaction between trigonal prismatic monomers, are reported. These PAFs exhibit large pore volumes and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller areas, 3.93 cm3 g-1 and 4857 m2 g-1 for C-PAF, and 3.80 cm3 g-1 and 6099 m2 g-1 for Si-PAF, respectively. Si-PAF exhibits a record-high gravimetric hydrogen delivery capacity of 17.01 wt% and a superior volumetric capacity of 46.5 g L-1 under pressure-temperature swing adsorption conditions (77 K, 100 bar → 160 K, 5 bar), outperforming benchmark hydrogen storage materials. By virtue of the robust C─C covalent bond, both PAFs show impressive structural stabilities in harsh environments and unprecedented long-term durability. Computational modeling methods are employed to simulate and investigate the structural and adsorption properties of the PAFs. These results demonstrate that C-PAF and Si-PAF are promising materials for efficient hydrogen storage.

Abstract
Polymerized high internal phase emulsions (polyHIPEs) with circularly polarized luminescence (CPL), as an interesting class of porous materials, are of great significance for the development of CPL porous materials but have not been reported so far. Herein, we report the construction of polyHIPE-based CPL porous materials, taking advantage of an adsorption strategy. The pristine polyHIPEs constructed by chiral helical polymers, which acted as a chiral microenvironment, were fabricated by coordination polymerization of chiral acetylene monomers (R/S-SA) using HIPEs as templates. Achiral fluorescent small molecules were dispersed in the pores of the 3D porous organic chiral polymer matrix provided by polyHIPEs through the adsorption strategy, and CPL-active porous materials with blue, cyan, and green emissions were constructed using a fluorescence-selective absorption mechanism that does not rely on chirality transfer at the molecular level. The maximum luminescence dissymmetry factor (glum) value was -2.6 × 10-2. This work establishes a new and simple way for developing CPL porous materials.

Abstract
The key parameters governing the mechanical stability of highly porous materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are yet to be clearly understood. This study focuses on the role of the linker connectivity by investigating the mechanical stability of MIL-100(Cr), a mesoporous MOF with a hierarchical structure and a tritopic linker, and comparing it to MIL-101(Cr) having instead a ditopic linker. Using synchrotron X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy, we investigate the high-pressure behavior of MIL-100(Cr) with both solid and fluid pressure transmitting media (PTM). In the case of a solid medium, MIL-100(Cr) undergoes amorphization at about 0.6 GPa, while silicone oil as a PTM delays amorphization until 12 GPa due to the fluid penetration into the pores. Both of these values are considerably higher than those of MIL-101(Cr). MIL-100(Cr) also exhibits a bulk modulus almost ten times larger than that of MIL-101(Cr). This set of results coherently proves the superior stability of MIL-100(Cr) under compression. We ascribe this to the higher connectivity of the organic linker in MIL-100(Cr), which enhances its interconnection between the metal nodes. These findings shed light on the importance of linker connectivity in the mechanical stability of MOFs, a relevant contribution to the quest for designing more robust MOFs.

Expanding the Reticular Chemistry Building Block Library toward Highly Connected Nets: Ultraporous MOFs Based on 18-Connected Ternary, Trigonal Prismatic Superpolyhedra. J Am Chem Soc 2024; 146:8961-8970. [PMID: 38428926 PMCID: PMC10996011 DOI: 10.1021/jacs.3c12679] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2023] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
The chemistry of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) continues to expand rapidly, providing materials with diverse structures and properties. The reticular chemistry approach, where well-defined structural building blocks are combined together to form crystalline open framework solids, has greatly accelerated the discovery of new and important materials. However, its full potential toward the rational design of MOFs relies on the availability of highly connected building blocks because these greatly reduce the number of possible structures. Toward this, building blocks with connectivity greater than 12 are highly desirable but extremely rare. We report here the discovery of novel 18-connected, trigonal prismatic, ternary building blocks (tbb's) and their assembly into unique MOFs, denoted as Fe-tbb-MOF-x (x: 1, 2, 3), with hierarchical micro- and mesoporosity. The remarkable tbb is an 18-c supertrigonal prism, with three points of extension at each corner, consisting of triangular (3-c) and rectangular (4-c) carboxylate-based organic linkers and trigonal prismatic [Fe3(μ3-Ο)(-COO)6]+ clusters. The tbb's are linked together by an 18-c cluster made of 4-c ligands and a crystallographically distinct Fe3(μ3-Ο) trimer, forming overall a 3-D (3,4,4,6,6)-c five nodal net. The hierarchical, highly porous nature of Fe-tbb-MOF-x (x: 1, 2, 3) was confirmed by recording detailed sorption isotherms of Ar, CH4, and CO2 at 87, 112, and 195 K, respectively, revealing an ultrahigh BET area (4263-4847 m2 g-1) and pore volume (1.95-2.29 cm3 g-1). Because of the observed ultrahigh porosities, the H2 and CH4 storage properties of Fe-tbb-MOF-x were investigated, revealing well-balanced high gravimetric and volumetric deliverable capacities for cryoadsorptive H2 storage (11.6 wt %/41.4 g L-1, 77 K/100 bar-160 K/5 bar), as well as CH4 storage at near ambient temperatures (367 mg g-1/160 cm3 STP cm-3, 5-100 bar at 298 K), placing these materials among the top performing MOFs. The present work opens new directions to apply reticular chemistry for the construction of novel MOFs with tunable porosities based on contracted or expanded tbb analogues.

Abstract
Assembling metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into ordered multidimensional porous superstructures promises the encapsulation of enzymes for heterogeneous biocatalysts. However, the full potential of this approach has been limited by the poor stability of enzymes and the uncontrolled assembly of MOF nanoparticles onto suitable supports. In this study, a novel and exceptionally robust Ni-imidazole-based MOF was synthesized in water at room temperature, enabling in situ enzyme encapsulation. Based on this MOF platform, we developed a DNA-directed assembly strategy to achieve the uniform placement of MOF nanoparticles onto bacterial cellulose nanofibers, resulting in a distinctive "branch-fruit" structure. The resulting hybrid materials demonstrated remarkable versatility across various catalytic systems, accommodating natural enzymes, nanoenzymes, and multienzyme cascades, thus showcasing enormous potential as universal microbioreactors. Furthermore, the hierarchical composites facilitated rapid diffusion of the bulky substrate while maintaining the enzyme stability, with ∼3.5-fold higher relative activity compared to the traditional enzyme@MOF immobilized in bacterial cellulose nanofibers.

Abstract
Hydrogen storage by cryoadsorption on porous materials has the advantages of low material cost, safety, fast kinetics, and high cyclic stability. The further development of this technology requires reliable data on the H2 uptake of the adsorbents, however, even for activated carbons the values between different laboratories show sometimes large discrepancies. So far no reference material for hydrogen cryoadsorption is available. The metal-organic framework ZIF-8 is an ideal material possessing high thermal, chemical, and mechanical stability that reduces degradation during handling and activation. Here, we distributed ZIF-8 pellets synthesized by extrusion to 9 laboratories equipped with 15 different experimental setups including gravimetric and volumetric analyzers. The gravimetric H2 uptake of the pellets was measured at 77 K and up to 100 bar showing a high reproducibility between the different laboratories, with a small relative standard deviation of 3-4 % between pressures of 10-100 bar. The effect of operating variables like the amount of sample or analysis temperature was evaluated, remarking the calibration of devices and other correction procedures as the most significant deviation sources. Overall, the reproducible hydrogen cryoadsorption measurements indicate the robustness of the ZIF-8 pellets, which we want to propose as a reference material.

Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis of a two-dimensional metal-organic framework (MOF), assembled from octahedral metal-organic cages featuring phenanthroline-based carboxylate linkers and μ3-oxo-centered trinuclear Sc(III) inorganic building blocks. We study the performance of this MOF towards the capture of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). On account of its structural features and porous nature, this MOF displays an SF6 uptake capacity of 0.92 mmol g-1 at 0.1 bar and an isosteric heat of adsorption of about 30.7 kJ mol-1 for SF6, illustrating its potential application for the selective capture of SF6 from N2. In addition, we study the adsorptive binding mechanism of SF6 and N2 inside this MOF via molecular simulations.

Abstract
Liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs) have gained significant attention for large-scale hydrogen storage due to their remarkable gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity (HSC) and compatibility with existing oil and gas transportation networks for long-distance transport. However, the practical application of reversible LOHC systems has been constrained by the intrinsic thermodynamic properties of hydrogen carriers and the performances of associated catalysts in the (de)hydrogenation cycles. To overcome these challenges, thermodynamically favored carriers, high-performance catalysts, and catalytic procedures need to be developed. Here, significant advances in recent years have been summarized, primarily centered on regular LOHC systems catalyzed by homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts, including dehydrogenative aromatization of cycloalkanes to arenes and N-heterocyclics to N-heteroarenes, as well as reverse hydrogenation processes. Furthermore, with the development of metal complexes for dehydrogenative coupling, a new family of reversible LOHC systems based on alcohols is described that can release H2 under relatively mild conditions. Finally, views on the next steps and challenges in the field of LOHC technology are provided, emphasizing new resources for low-cost hydrogen carriers, high-performance catalysts, catalytic technologies, and application scenarios.

Abstract
Three copolymers with conjugated structures, PTB1-PTB3, were produced utilizing a palladium-catalyzed cyclopentannulation polymerization by reacting a specially designed diethynyl Tröger's base surrogate with different dihalogenated polycondensed aromatic hydrocarbons. Brunauer, Emmet, and Teller nitrogen gas adsorption investigation revealed the surface areas of the copolymers, attaining ∼365 m2 g-1. Gas uptake studies demonstrated a considerable carbon dioxide uptake for PTB2 of 44.41 mg g-1 at 273 K and a promising H2 gas uptake of 3.18 mg g-1 at 77 K. PTB1-PTB3 displayed a sizable iodine adsorption capacity, achieving 4000 mg g-1, and mechanistic investigations demonstrated the prevalence of a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Recyclability experiments proved the effective regeneration of the copolymers, even after performing several adsorption and desorption tests.

Abstract
The depletion of reliable energy sources and the environmental and climatic repercussions of polluting energy sources have become global challenges. Hence, many countries have adopted various renewable energy sources including hydrogen. Hydrogen is a future energy carrier in the global energy system and has the potential to produce zero carbon emissions. For the non-fossil energy sources, hydrogen and electricity are considered the dominant energy carriers for providing end-user services, because they can satisfy most of the consumer requirements. Hence, the development of both hydrogen production and storage is necessary to meet the standards of a "hydrogen economy". The physical and chemical absorption of hydrogen in solid storage materials is a promising hydrogen storage method because of the high storage and transportation performance. In this paper, physical hydrogen storage materials such as hollow spheres, carbon-based materials, zeolites, and metal-organic frameworks are reviewed. We summarize and discuss the properties, hydrogen storage densities at different temperatures and pressures, and the fabrication and modification methods of these materials. The challenges associated with these physical hydrogen storage materials are also discussed.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have historically been of interest to researchers in different areas due to their distinctive characteristics, including well-ordered pores, large specific surface area, and structural tunability. In the past few years, as COF synthesis techniques developed, COF-based composites fabricated by integrating COFs and other functional materials including various kinds of metal or metal oxide nanoparticles, ionic liquids, metal-organic frameworks, silica, polymers, enzymes and carbon nanomaterials have emerged as a novel kind of porous hybrid material. Herein, we first provide a thorough summary of advanced strategies for preparing COF-based composites; then, the emerging applications of COF-based composites in diverse fields due to their synergistic effects are systematically highlighted, including analytical chemistry (sensing, extraction, membrane separation, and chromatographic separation) and catalysis. Finally, the current challenges associated with future perspectives of COF-based composites are also briefly discussed to inspire the advancement of more COF-based composites with excellent properties.

Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1287:342061. [PMID: 38182368 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.342061] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have found promising applications in separation fields due to their large surface area and high adsorption capacity, but the exiting COFs can not be directly used as the packing materials of on-line solid-phase extraction (SPE) coupled to HPLC and HPLC because their nano/submicron size or irregular shapes might cause ultrahigh column back pressure and low column efficiency. To synthesize the large-size spherical COFs larger than 3 μm as sorbents might be able to address these problems, however it is still a great challenge till now. RESULTS In this work, two large-size spherical 3D COFs (COF-320 and COF-300) were size-controllably synthesized within 10-90 μm via a two-step strategy. These two spherical COFs showed large surface area, fine crystallinity, good chemical/mechanical stability, and good reproducibility. As an application case, when used as the on-line SPE sorbents coupled to HPLC, the large-size spherical COF-320 displayed high binding capacity for bisphenol F (Qmax of 452.49 mg/g), low column back pressure (6-8 psi at flow rate of 1 mL/min), and good reusability (at least 30 cycles). The developed on-line-SPE-HPLC-UV method presented good analytical performance with enrichment factor of 667 folds, linear range of 1.0-400 ng/mL, limit of detection (LOD, S/N = 3) of 0.3 ng/mL, limit of quantification (LOQ, S/N = 10) of 1.0 ng/mL, and recoveries of 100.3-103.2 % (RSDs of 2.0-3.5 %) and 95.2-97.0 % (RSDs of 4.3-5.6 %) for tap water and lake water samples, respectively. SIGNIFICANCE This is the first case to synthesize the large-size spherical COFs within 10-90 μm, and this work made it possible to directly use COFs as the filling materials of on-line SPE coupled to HPLC and HPLC. The developed analytical method can be potentially applied to the rapid and sensitive detection of trace bisphenol F in environmental water samples.

Abstract
The development of novel materials capable of securely storing hydrogen at high volumetric and gravimetric densities is a requirement for the wide-scale usage of hydrogen as an energy carrier. In recent years, great efforts via nanoscale tuning and designing strategies on both physisorbents and chemisorbents have been devoted to improvements in their thermodynamic and kinetic aspects. Increasing the hydrogen storage capacity/density for physisorbents and chemisorbents and improving the dehydrogenation kinetics of hydrides are still considered a challenge. The extensive and fast development of advanced nanotechnologies has fueled a surge in research that presents huge potential in designing solid-state materials to meet the ultimate U.S. Department of Energy capacity targets for onboard light-duty vehicles, material-handling equipments, and portable power applications. Different from the existing literature, in this review, particular attention is paid to the recent advances in nanoscale engineering of solid-state materials for boosting hydrogen storage, especially the nanoscale tuning and designing strategies. We first present a short overview of hydrogen storage mechanisms of nanoscale engineering for boosted hydrogen storage performance on solid-state materials, for example, hydrogen spillover, nanopump effect, nanosize effect, nanocatalysis, and other non-classical hydrogen storage mechanisms. Then, the focus is on recent advancements in nanoscale engineering strategies aimed at enhancing the gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity of porous materials, reducing dehydrogenation temperature and improving reaction kinetics and reversibility of hydrogen desorption/absorption for metal hydrides. Effective nanoscale tuning strategies for enhancing the hydrogen storage performance of porous materials include optimizing surface area and pore volume, fine-tuning nanopore sizes, introducing nanostructure doping, and crafting nanoarchitecture and nanohybrid materials. For metal hydrides, successful strategies involve nanoconfinement, nanosizing, and the incorporation of nanocatalysts. This review further addresses the points to future research directions in the hope of ushering in the practical applications of hydrogen storage materials.

Abstract
In the winter months, the temperature in most of the Earth stays below 0°C; the average temperature in winter at the South Pole is about -60°C. Therefore, it is urgent to develop efficient catalytic systems for selective and efficient H2 evolution upon NH3BH3 hydrolysis at subzero temperatures. For solving the freezing issue of water at below 0°C, herein, we have employed a facile and surfactant-free approach to synthesize M-Pt/C nanocomposites (M = Pd, Rh, Ru, Ni, Cu, or Fe), by the alloying of commercial Pt/C with Pd, Rh, Ru, Cu, Ni, or Fe for selective and efficient H2 evolution upon NH3BH3 hydrolysis in saline solution at below 0°C, even at -15°C. In addition, NH3BH3 hydrolysis over Pd-Pt/C in the saturated NaCl solution is utilized not only for safe hydrogen production but also for its in situ hydrogenation reduction in organic chemistry, which could avoid using dangerous hydrogen cylinders.

Abstract
Hydrogen plays a crucial role in the future energy landscape owing to its high energy density. However, finding an ideal storage material is the key challenge to the success of the hydrogen economy. Various solid-state hydrogen storage materials, such as metal hydrides, have been developed to realize safe, effective, and compact hydrogen storage. However, low kinetics and thermodynamic stability lead to a high working temperature and a low hydrogen sorption rate of the metal hydrides. Using scaffolds made from porous materials like silica to confine the metal hydrides is necessary for better and improved hydrogen storage. Therefore, this article reviews porous silica-based scaffolds as an ideal material for improved hydrogen storage. The outcome showed that confining the metal hydrides using scaffolds based on porous silica significantly increases their storage capacities. It was also found that the structural modifications of the silica-based scaffold into a hollow structure further improved the storage capacity and increased the affinity and confinement ability of the metal hydrides, which prevents the agglomeration of metal particles during the adsorption/desorption process. Hence, the structural modifications of the silica material into a fibrous and hollow material are recommended to be crucial for further enhancing the metal hydride storage capacity.

Abstract
We combined both density functional theory and classical molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the molecular mechanisms governing hydrogen solvation in a total of 12 ionic liquids. Overall, the analysis of the structural properties under high temperature and pressure conditions revealed weak interactions between hydrogen and the ionic liquids, with a slight preference of this gas to be placed at the apolar domains. Interestingly, those ionic liquids comprising nitrate anions allow the accommodation of hydrogen molecules also in the polar areas. The study of the hydrogen velocity autocorrelation functions supports this observation. In addition, the structure of all of the tested ionic liquids was almost insensitive to the addition of hydrogen, so the available free volume and cavity formation are presumably the most important factors affecting solubility.

Abstract
Developing materials to harvest water from the air is of great importance to alleviate the water shortage for people living in arid regions, where the annual average relative humidity (RH) is lower than 0.4. In this work, we report a general nitrogen atom incorporation strategy to prepare high-performance covalent organic frameworks (COFs) for water harvesting from the air in arid areas. A series of COFs, namely COF-W1, COF-W2, and COF-W3 were developed for this purpose. Different contents of nitrogen were embedded into COFs by incorporating pyridine units into the building blocks. With the increasing content of nitrogen from COF-W1 to COF-W3, the inflection points of their water isotherms shift distinctly from RH values from 0.65 to 0.25. Significantly, COF-W3 exhibits the lowest inflection point at a low RH value of 0.25 and reaches a high uptake capacity of 0.28 g g-1 at 25 °C with a low hysteresis loop. Moreover, the gram-scale COF-W3 retains its high performance, which renders it more attractive in water harvesting. This work demonstrates the feasibility of this nitrogen incorporation strategy to acquire high-performance COFs as water harvesters in the future.

Abstract
Motivated by the recent experimental study on hydrogen storage in MXene multilayers [Liu et al., Nat. Nanotechnol. 16, 331 (2021)], for the first time we propose a workflow to computationally screen 23 857 compounds of MXene to explore the general relation between the activated H2 bond length and adsorption distance. By using density functional theory we generate a dataset to investigate the adsorption geometries of hydrogen on MXenes, based on which we train physics-informed atomistic line graph neural networks (ALIGNNs) to predict adsorption parameters. To fit the results, we further derived a formula that quantitatively reproduces the dependence of H2 bond length on the adsorption distance from MXenes within the framework of Pauling's resonating valence bond theory, revealing the impact of transition metal's ligancy and valence on activating dihydrogen in H2 storage.

Abstract
One of the barriers to further commercialization of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is hydrogen storage. Conventional methods are based on pressurizing the hydrogen up to 700 bar. The focus of this study is to characterize the hydrogen storage capacity of hydrogen tanks filled with MOF-5 at low pressures. Thus, Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) was used in a transient condition to analyze the hydrogen storage. Benefiting from the CFD model, three input parameters of the MOF-5, namely, density, specific heat, and conductivity, were utilized to develop an artificial neural network (ANN) model to find the highest mass of adsorption at the lowest required pressure. The optimum possible MOF among 729220 different possibilities, which enables the adsorption of 0.0099 kg at 139 bar, was found using a newly defined parameter called Pressure Adsorption Parameter (PAP).

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as attractive chemical sensing materials due to their exceptionally high porosity and chemical diversity. Nevertheless, the utilization of MOFs in chemiresistive type sensors has been hindered by their inherent limitation in electrical conductivity. The recent emergence of two-dimensional conductive MOFs (2D c-MOFs) has addressed this limitation by offering enhanced electrical conductivity, while still retaining the advantageous properties of MOFs. In particular, c-MOFs have shown promising advantages for the fabrication of sensors capable of operating at room temperature. Thus, active research on gas sensors utilizing c-MOFs is currently underway, focusing on enhancing sensitivity and selectivity. To comprehend the potential of MOFs as chemiresistive sensors for future applications, it is crucial to understand not only the fundamental properties of conductive MOFs but also the state-of-the-art works that contribute to improving their performance. This comprehensive review delves into the distinctive characteristics of 2D c-MOFs as a new class of chemiresistors, providing in-depth insights into their unique sensing properties. Furthermore, we discuss the proposed sensing mechanisms associated with 2D c-MOFs and provide a concise summary of the strategies employed to enhance the sensing performance of 2D c-MOFs. These strategies encompass a range of approaches, including the design of metal nodes and linkers, morphology control, and the synergistic use of composite materials. In addition, the review thoroughly explores the prospects of 2D c-MOFs as chemiresistors and elucidates their remarkable potential for further advancements. The insights presented in this review shed light on future directions and offer valuable opportunities in the chemical sensing research field.

Porous crystalline materials usually include metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) and zeolites, which exhibit exceptional porosity and structural/composition designability, promoting the increasing attention in memory and neuromorphic computing systems in the last decade. From both the perspective of materials and devices, it is crucial to provide a comprehensive and timely summary of the applications of porous crystalline materials in memory and neuromorphic computing systems to guide future research endeavors. Moreover, the utilization of porous crystalline materials in electronics necessitates a shift from powder synthesis to high-quality film preparation to ensure high device performance. This review highlights the strategies for preparing porous crystalline materials films and discusses their advancements in memory and neuromorphic electronics. It also provides a detailed comparative analysis and presents the existing challenges and future research directions, which can attract the experts from various fields (e.g., materials scientists, chemists, and engineers) with the aim of promoting the applications of porous crystalline materials in memory and neuromorphic computing systems.

Abstract
One-pot cascade catalytic reactions easily allow the circumvention of pitfalls of traditional catalytic reactions, such as multi-step syntheses, longer duration, waste generation, and high operational cost. Despite advances in this area, the facile assimilation of chemically antagonistic bifunctional sites in close proximity inside a well-defined scaffold via a process of rational structural design still remains a challenge. Herein, we report the successful fusion of incompatible acid-base active sites in an ionic porous organic polymer (iPOP), 120-MI@OH, via a simple ion-exchange strategy. The fabricated polymer catalyst, 120-MI@OH, performed exceedingly well as a cascade acid-base catalyst in a deacetylation-Knoevenagel condensation reaction under mild and eco-friendly continuous flow conditions. In addition, the abundance of spatially isolated distinct acidic (imidazolium cations) and basic (hydroxide anions) catalytic sites give 120-MI@OH its excellent solid acid and base catalytic properties. To demonstrate the practical relevance of 120-MI@OH, stable millimeter-sized spherical composite polymer bead microstructures were synthesized and utilized in one-pot cascade catalysis under continuous flow, thus illustrating promising catalytic activity. Additionally, the heterogeneous polymer catalyst displayed good recyclability, scalability, as well as ease of fabrication. The superior catalytic activity of 120-MI@OH can be rationalized by its unique structure that reconciles close proximity of antagonistic catalytic sites that are sufficiently isolated in space.

Abstract
To understand the mechanism of the dehydrogenation of methanol to CO and H2 catalyzed by a ruthenium pincer complex, a density functional theory (DFT) study has been conducted on two different cycles which differ in the substances entering the cycle (methanol (cycle 1) versus methoxymethanol (cycle 2)). Our calculated results show that both cycles consist of three stages: dehydrogenation of alcohol to aldehyde (stage I); hydrogen formation (stage II); and decarbonylation with the regeneration of the catalyst (stage III). The energy barriers of the rate-determining steps for cycles 1 and 2 are 49.6 and 28.5 kcal mol-1, respectively. Thus cycle 2 is more energetically feasible. For stage III of cycle 2, our results did not support the mechanism proposed in the experiment (CO release occurs prior to decarbonylation). Instead, we suggested and examined an alternative pathway, that is, decarbonylation occurs prior to CO release. The mechanistic insights gained in the present paper could be beneficial for further designing of these kinds of reactions.

Abstract
Cryoadsorption on the inner surface of porous materials is a promising solution for safe, fast, and reversible hydrogen storage. Within the class of highly porous metal-organic frameworks, zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) show high thermal, chemical, and mechanical stability. In this study, we selected ZIF-8 synthesized mechanochemically by twin-screw extrusion as powder and pellets. The hydrogen storage capacity at 77 K and up to 100 bar has been analyzed in two laboratories applying three different measurement setups showing a high reproducibility. Pelletizing ZIF-8 increases the packing density close to the corresponding value for a single crystal without loss of porosity, resulting in an improved volumetric hydrogen storage capacity close to the upper limit for a single crystal. The high volumetric uptake combined with a low and constant heat of adsorption provides ca. 31 g of usable hydrogen per liter of pellet assuming a temperature-pressure swing adsorption process between 77 K - 100 bar and 117 K - 5 bar. Cycling experiments do not indicate any degradation in storage capacity. The excellent stability during preparation, handling, and operation of ZIF-8 pellets demonstrates its potential as a robust adsorbent material for technical application in pilot- and full-scale adsorption vessel prototypes.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that contain open metal sites have the potential for storing hydrogen (H2) at ambient temperatures. In particular, Cu(I)-based MOFs demonstrate very high isosteric heats of adsorption for hydrogen relative to other reported MOFs with open metal sites. However, most of these Cu(I)-based MOFs are not stable in ambient conditions since the Cu(I) species display sensitivity toward moisture and can rapidly oxidize in air. As a result, researchers have focused on the synthesis of new air-stable Cu(I)-based materials for H2 storage. Here, we have developed a de novo synthetic strategy to generate a robust Cu(I)-based MOF, denoted as NU-2100, using a mixture of Cu/Zn precursors in which zinc acts as a catalyst to transform an intermediate MOF into NU-2100 without getting incorporated into the final MOF structure. NU-2100 is air-stable and displays one of the initial highest isosteric heats of adsorption (32 kJ/mol) with good hydrogen storage capability under ambient conditions (10.4 g/L, 233 K/100 bar to 296 K/5 bar). We further elucidated the H2 storage performance of NU-2100 using a combination of spectroscopic analysis and computational modeling studies. Overall, this new synthetic route may enable the design of additional stable Cu(I)-MOFs for next-generation hydrogen storage adsorbents at ambient temperatures.

Abstract
CONTEXT The adsorptive separation performances of fullerene pillared graphene nanocomposites (FPGNs) with tunable micro and meso porous morphology are investigated for the binary mixtures of CH4, H2, CO2 and N2 by using grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations. Different fullerene types are considered in designs as pillar to investigate the effects of porosity on the gas separation performances of FPGNs, and the GCMC simulations are performed for an equimolar binary mixture of CO2/H2, CO2/CH4, CO2/N2 and CH4/H2 inspired by industrial gas mixtures. It is found that CO2/N2, CO2/H2 and CH4/H2 selectivity of FPGNs are about 72, 410 and 145 at 298 K and 1 bar, which are higher than those for several adsorbent materials reported. METHODS Five different FPGN models which contain covalently bonded periodical fullerene and graphene units were constructed using C60, C180, C320, C540 and C720 fullerenes, followed by geometry optimization using Open Babel. All GCMC simulations of adsorption were performed in the RASPA. The adsorption isotherms of FPGNs for pure gases are comparatively examined, and their performances are discussed based on the pore structure and isosteric heat of adsorption. Then, the separation factors of FPGNs for equimolar binary mixtures of these gases are elucidated from the difference in the heat of adsorption and the adsorption selectivity.

Abstract
Hydrogen storage has long been a priority on the renewable energy research agenda. Due to its high volumetric and gravimetric hydrogen density, MgH2 is a desirable candidate for solid-state hydrogen storage. However, its practical use is constrained by high thermal stability and sluggish kinetics. Here, PdNi bilayer metallenes are reported as catalysts for hydrogen storage of bulk-MgH2 near ambient temperature. Unprecedented 422 K beginning dehydrogenation temperature and up to 6.36 wt.% reliable hydrogen storage capacity are achieved. Fast hydrogen desorption is also provided by the system (5.49 wt.% in 1 h, 523 K). The in situ generated PdNi alloy clusters with suitable d-band centers are identified as the main active sites during the de/re-hydrogenation process by aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy and theoretical simulations, while other active species including Pd/Ni pure phase clusters and Pd/Ni single atoms obtained via metallene ball milling, also enhance the reaction. These findings present fundamental insights into active species identification and rational design of highly efficient hydrogen storage materials.

Abstract
Functional porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been explored for a number of potential applications in catalysis, chemical sensing, water capture, gas storage, and separation. MOFs are among the most promising candidates to address challenges facing our society related to energy and environment, but the successful implementation of functional porous MOF materials are contingent on their stability; therefore, the rational design of stable MOFs plays an important role towards the development of functional porous MOFs. In this Focus article, we summarize progress in the rational design and synthesis of stable MOFs with controllable pores and functionalities. The implementation of reticular chemistry allows for the rational top-down design of stable porous MOFs with targeted topological networks and pore structures from the pre-selected building blocks. We highlight the reticular synthesis and applications of stable MOFs: (1) MOFs based on high valent metal ions (e.g., Al3+, Cr3+, Fe3+, Ti4+ and Zr4+) and carboxylate ligands; (2) MOFs based on low valent metal ions (e.g., Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+) and azolate linkers. We envision that the synthetic strategies, including modulated synthesis and post-synthetic modification, can potentially be extended to other more complex systems like metal-phosphonate framework materials.

Abstract
In recent years, significant efforts have been made in view of a transition from a linear to a circular economy, where the value of products, materials, resources, and waste is maintained as long as possible in the economy. The re-utilization of industrial and agricultural waste into value-added products, such as nanostructured siliceous materials, has become a challenging topic as an effective strategy in waste management and a sustainable model aimed to limit the use of landfill, conserve natural resources, and reduce the use of harmful substances. In light of these considerations, nanoporous silica has attracted attention in various applications owing to the tunable pore dimensions, high specific surface areas, tailorable structure, and facile post-functionalization. In this review, recent progress on the synthesis of siliceous materials from different types of waste is presented, analyzing the factors influencing the size and morphology of the final product, alongside different synthetic methods used to impart specific porosity. Applications in the fields of wastewater/gas treatment and catalysis are discussed, focusing on process feasibility in large-scale productions.

Abstract
A two-dimensional metal-organic framework, FICN-12, was constructed from tris[4-(1H-pyrazole-4-yl)phenyl]amine (H3TPPA) ligands and Ni2 secondary building units. The triphenylamine moiety in the H3TPPA ligand readily absorbs UV-visible photons and sensitizes the Ni center to drive photocatalytic CO2 reduction. FICN-12 can be exfoliated into monolayer and few-layer nanosheets with a "top-down" approach, which exposes more catalytic sites and increases its catalytic activity. As a result, the nanosheets (FICN-12-MONs) showed photocatalytic CO and CH4 production rates of 121.15 and 12.17 μmol/g/h, respectively, nearly 1.4 times higher than those of bulk FICN-12.

[PMID: 37200693 PMCID: PMC10187038 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra01788e] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Extensive research has been devoted to developing metal nanoparticle (NP) doped porous materials with large hydrogen storage capacity and high hydrogen release pressure at ambient temperature. The ultra-sound assisted double-solvent approach (DSA) was applied for sample synthesis. In this study, tiny Pd NPs are confined into the pore space of HKUST-1, affording Pd@HKUST-1-DS with minimizing the aggregation of Pd NPs and subsequently the formation of Pd NPs on the external surface of HKUST-1. The experimental data reveal that the obtained Pd NP doped Pd@HKUST-1-DS possessed an outstanding hydrogen storage capacity of 3.68 wt% (and 1.63 wt%) at 77 K and 0.2 MPa H2 (and 298 K and 18 MPa H2), in comparison with pristine HKUST-1 and impregnated Pd/HKUST-1-IM. It is found that the storage capacity variation is not only ascribed to the different textural properties of materials but is also illustrated by the hydrogen spillover induced by different electron transport from Pd to the pores of MOFs (Pd@HKUST-1-DS > Pd/HKUST-1-IM), based on X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and temperature desorption spectra. Pd@HKUST-1-DS, featuring high specific surface area, uniform Pd NP dispersion and strong interaction of Pd with hydrogen in the confined pore spaces of the support, displays the high hydrogen storage capacity. This work highlights the influence of spillover caused by Pd electron transport on the hydrogen storage capacity of metal NPs/MOFs, which is governed by both physical and chemical adsorption.

[PMID: 37037950 PMCID: PMC10086095 DOI: 10.1007/s40820-023-01041-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
A comprehensive discussion of the recent advances in the nanostructure engineering of Mg-based hydrogen storage materials is presented. The fundamental theories of hydrogen storage in nanostructured Mg-based hydrogen storage materials and their practical applications are reviewed. The challenges and recommendations of current nanostructured hydrogen storage materials are pointed out. Abstract With the depletion of fossil fuels and global warming, there is an urgent demand to seek green, low-cost, and high-efficiency energy resources. Hydrogen has been considered as a potential candidate to replace fossil fuels, due to its high gravimetric energy density (142 MJ kg−1), high abundance (H2O), and environmental-friendliness. However, due to its low volume density, effective and safe hydrogen storage techniques are now becoming the bottleneck for the "hydrogen economy". Under such a circumstance, Mg-based hydrogen storage materials garnered tremendous interests due to their high hydrogen storage capacity (~ 7.6 wt% for MgH2), low cost, and excellent reversibility. However, the high thermodynamic stability (ΔH = − 74.7 kJ mol−1 H2) and sluggish kinetics result in a relatively high desorption temperature (> 300 °C), which severely restricts widespread applications of MgH2. Nano-structuring has been proven to be an effective strategy that can simultaneously enhance the ab/de-sorption thermodynamic and kinetic properties of MgH2, possibly meeting the demand for rapid hydrogen desorption, economic viability, and effective thermal management in practical applications. Herein, the fundamental theories, recent advances, and practical applications of the nanostructured Mg-based hydrogen storage materials are discussed. The synthetic strategies are classified into four categories: free-standing nano-sized Mg/MgH2 through electrochemical/vapor-transport/ultrasonic methods, nanostructured Mg-based composites via mechanical milling methods, construction of core-shell nano-structured Mg-based composites by chemical reduction approaches, and multi-dimensional nano-sized Mg-based heterostructure by nanoconfinement strategy. Through applying these strategies, near room temperature ab/de-sorption (< 100 °C) with considerable high capacity (> 6 wt%) has been achieved in nano Mg/MgH2 systems. Some perspectives on the future research and development of nanostructured hydrogen storage materials are also provided. Graphical Abstract

Abstract
Molecular materials based on small organic molecules often require advanced structural analysis, beyond the capability of spectroscopic techniques, to fully characterise them. In such cases, diffraction methods such as single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), are one of the most powerful tools available to researchers, providing molecular and structural elucidation at atomic level resolution, including absolute stereochemistry. However SCXRD, and related diffraction methods, are heavily dependent on the availability of suitable, high-quality crystals, thus crystallisation often becomes the major bottleneck in preparing samples. Following a summary of classical methods for the crystallisation of small organic molecules, this review will focus on a number of recently developed advanced methods for crystalline material sample preparation for SCXRD. This review will cover two main areas of modern small organic molecule crystallisation, namely the inclusion of molecules within host complexes (e.g., "crystalline sponge" and tetraaryladamantane based inclusion chaperones) and the use of high-throughput crystallisation, employing "under-oil" approaches (e.g., microbatch under-oil and ENaCt). Representative examples have been included for each technique, together with a discussion of their relative advantages and limitations to aid the reader in selecting the most appropriate technique to overcome a specific analytical challenge.

Abstract
Developing a highly efficient bifunctional catalyst for hydrolysis of metal hydrides and spontaneous hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is essential for substituting conventional fuels for H2 production. Herein, Ru-cluster-modified Co3 B-Co(OH)2 supported on nickel foam (Ru/Co3 B-Co(OH)2 @NF) is constructed by electroless deposition, calcination and chemical reduction. The catalyst exhibits an excellent hydrogen generation rate (HGR) of 4989 mL min-1 g c a t a l y s t - 1 ${{{\rm g}}_{catalyst}^{-1}}$ and good reusability, superior to most previously reported catalysts. Besides, Ru/Co3 B-Co(OH)2 @NF displays a prominent hydrogen evolution reaction catalytic capability with a low overpotential of 153.0 mV at 100 mA cm-2 (50.5 mV at 10 mA cm-2 ), a small Tafel slope of 40.0 mV dec-1 and long-term stability (100 h@10 mA cm-2 ) in 1.0 M KOH. The excellent catalytic H2 generation capacity benefits from the rapid charge transfer promoted by metallic Co3 B, the synergistic catalytic effect of Co3 B-Co(OH)2 and Ru clusters, and the unique composite structure favorable for solute transport and gas emission.

Abstract
The development of novel synthetic methodologies and unprecedented structures of covalent organic framework (COF) films is of great importance for exploring their potential applications in optoelectronic devices, sensors, and membrane separation. From the point of view of monomer selection, rigid building blocks are always the first choice for synthesizing crystalline COF films. However, the preparation of COF films with flexible building units remains challenging. Herein, by introducing flexible triphenylamine-based building units, a nonplanar COF film (TFPA-TAPA film) is fabricated via liquid-liquid interface-confined synthesis at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The growth mechanism of the flexible building units at the liquid-liquid interface is related to the transformation of strip-type slices into free-standing COF films by dynamic covalent chemistry. As a proof-of-concept, the as-fabricated Al/TFPA-TAPA/ITO device shows excellent multilevel storage and history-dependent memristive switching behavior. The synaptic potentiation/depression, human learning and memorization functions, as well as the transition from short-term synaptic plasticity to long-term plasticity, are successfully emulated by using this synaptic memristor.

Abstract
Hydrides have emerged as strong candidates for energy storage applications and their study has attracted wide interest in both the academic and industry sectors. With clear advantages due to the solid-state storage of hydrogen, hydrides and in particular complex hydrides have the ability to tackle environmental pollution by offering the alternative of a clean energy source: hydrogen. However, several drawbacks have detracted this material from going mainstream, and some of these shortcomings have been addressed by nanostructuring/nanoconfinement strategies. With the enhancement of thermodynamic and/or kinetic behavior, nanosized complex hydrides (borohydrides and alanates) have recently conquered new estate in the hydrogen storage field. The current review aims to present the most recent results, many of which illustrate the feasibility of using complex hydrides for the generation of molecular hydrogen in conditions suitable for vehicular and stationary applications. Nanostructuring strategies, either in the pristine or nanoconfined state, coupled with a proper catalyst and the choice of host material can potentially yield a robust nanocomposite to reliably produce H2 in a reversible manner. The key element to tackle for current and future research efforts remains the reproducible means to store H2, which will build up towards a viable hydrogen economy goal. The most recent trends and future prospects will be presented herein.

Abstract
Globally, reducing CO2 emissions is an urgent priority. The hydrogen economy is a system that offers long-term solutions for a secure energy future and the CO2 crisis. From hydrogen production to consumption, storing systems are the foundation of a viable hydrogen economy. Each step has been the topic of intense research for decades; however, the development of a viable, safe, and efficient strategy for the storage of hydrogen remains the most challenging one. Storing hydrogen in polymer-based carriers can realize a more compact and much safer approach that does not require high pressure and cryogenic temperature, with the potential to reach the targets determined by the United States Department of Energy. This review highlights an outline of the major polymeric material groups that are capable of storing and releasing hydrogen reversibly. According to the hydrogen storage results, there is no optimal hydrogen storage system for all stationary and automotive applications so far. Additionally, a comparison is made between different polymeric carriers and relevant solid-state hydrogen carriers to better understand the amount of hydrogen that can be stored and released realistically.
