Abstract
Removal of hetero ions from the hydrogen peroxide solution is a crucial step in purifying electronic-grade H2O2. Conventional adsorption materials are challenged to meet the need for the simultaneous adsorption of both anions and cations in solvents. UiO-66 (Zr) modified by acetic acid and amino group for simultaneous adsorption of phosphate and Pb2+ in H2O2 purification was fabricated in this work. The as-prepared defective UiO-66-NH2 (Zr) demonstrated a significant increase in specific surface area and porosity, along with more exposed sites for phosphate and Pb2+ adsorption. The adsorption capacity of De-UiO-66-NH2 for phosphate and Pb2+ in H2O2 solution was 52.28 mg g-1 and 35.4 mg g-1, which is 1.19 times and 1.88 times that of unmodified UiO-66 (Zr), respectively. The trace simultaneous adsorption with both 100 ppb phosphate and Pb2+ showed removal rates of 94.0% and 88.7%, respectively, confirming the practicality of MOF materials in the purification of electronic chemicals. This work highlights the potential of Zr-based MOFs as anionic and cationic simultaneous adsorbents for highly efficient purification of electronic-grade solvents.

Abstract
In this study, we employed a rapid and efficient microwave method to synthesize Metal-Organic Framework (MOF-303), which was subsequently embedded onto Palladium/Carbon (Pd/C) electrodes. The resulting hybrid material, Pd/C@MOF-303, was thoroughly characterized, and its performance in the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) was systematically investigated. The Pd/C@MOF-303 composite exhibited remarkable improvements in HER performance compared to the unmodified Pd/C electrode. At a benchmark current density of 10 mA cm-2 , the overpotentials for Pd/C and Pd/C@MOF-303 were measured at 185 mV and 175 mV, respectively. This reduction in overpotential highlights the superior catalytic activity of the Pd/C@MOF-303 hybrid material in facilitating the HER. Furthermore, the Pd/C@MOF-303 electrode demonstrated enhanced HER activity, increased mass activity, and excellent charge transfer rates compared to its unmodified counterpart, Pd/C. The findings underscore the significance of the hydrophilic MOF-303 in tailoring the surface characteristics of electrocatalysts, thereby offering insights into the design principles for advanced materials with superior performance in electrochemical applications.

Abstract
One of the basic challenges of CO2 photoreduction is to develop efficient photocatalysts, and the construction of heterostructure photocatalysts with intimate interfaces is an effective strategy to enhance interfacial charge transfer for realizing high photocatalytic activity. Herein, a novel UiO-66/Bi4O5Br2 heterostructure photocatalyst was constructed by depositing UiO-66 nanoparticles with octahedral morphology over the Bi4O5Br2 nanoflowers assembled from the Bi4O5Br2 nanosheets via an electrostatic self-assembly method. A tight contact interface and a built-in electric field were formed between the UiO-66 and the Bi4O5Br2, which was conducive to the photo-electrons transfer from the Bi4O5Br2 to the UiO-66 and the formation of a type-II heterojunction with highly efficient charge separation. As a result, the UiO-66/Bi4O5Br2 exhibited improved photocatalytic CO2 reduction performance with a CO generation rate of 8.35 μmol h−1 g−1 without using any sacrificial agents or noble co-catalysts. This work illustrates an applicable tactic to develop potent photocatalysts for clean energy conversion.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate the effect of replacing Ti with Zr in the SBU of MIL-125-NH2 . We were able to replace Ti with Zr in the mixed metal synthesis of MIL-125-NH2 , for the first time. After experimentally confirming the consistency in their framework structure and comparing their morphology, we related the femtosecond light dynamics with photocatalytic CO2 visible light conversion yield of the different variants in order to establish the composition-function relation in MIL-125 vis a vis CO2 reduction. Introducing Zr to the system was found to cause structure defects due to missing linkers. The lifetime of the charge carriers for the mixed metal samples were shorter than that of the MIL-125-NH2 . The study of CO2 photocatalytic reduction under visible light indicated that the NH2 group enhances the photocatalytic activity while the Zr incorporation inside the MIL framework introduces no significant improvements. In addition, the material systems were modelled and simulated through DFT calculations which concluded that the decrease of the photocatalytic activity is not related to the system electronic structure, insinuating that defects are the culprit.
