Synthesis of a novel cost-effective double-ligand Zr-based MOF via an inverted modulator strategy towards enhanced adsorption and photodegradation of tetracycline. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 671:732-741. [PMID: 38823114 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.05.211] [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: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
Developing visible-light response photocatalysts with high activity and adsorption alongside sustainability is vitally important to environmental restoration. Here, we fabricated a novel metal organic framework (MOF) with cost-effective double-ligands (fumaric acid and 2-aminoterephthalic acid as ligand precursors, denoted as MA-MOF) via a facile solvothermal method. Specifically, crystalline [Zr6O4(OH)4(fumarate)6] (MOF-801) can be only formed with monocarboxylic acids as modulators. Therefore, in the construction of crystalline double-ligand MA-MOF, the absence of monocarboxylic acid modulators successfully prevents the formation of crystalline MOF-801. Instead, the crystalline double-ligand MA-MOF is formed. Properties of MA-MOFs including the surface area, porosity, charge transfer resistance, and energy level position can be adjusted via altering the ratio of ligands. The optimal sample, MA-MOF2 (prepared with a molar ratio of fumaric acid and 2-aminoterephthalic acid being 2:1), shows a total 94.6% removal of tetracycline via adsorption and photodegradation, far exceeding the corresponding single-ligand counterparts. This work proposes an innovative inverted modulator strategy for constructing double-ligand MOFs.

Abstract
With the development of science and technology, the scale of industrial production continues to grow, and the types and quantities of gas raw materials used in industrial production and produced during the production process are also constantly increasing. These gases include flammable and explosive gases, and even contain toxic gases. Therefore, it is very important and necessary for gas sensors to detect and monitor these gases quickly and accurately. In recent years, a new two-dimensional material called MXene has attracted widespread attention in various applications. Their abundant surface functional groups and sites, excellent current conductivity, tunable surface chemistry, and outstanding stability make them promising for gas sensor applications. Since the birth of MXene materials, researchers have utilized the efficient and convenient solution etching preparation, high flexibility, and easily functionalize MXene with other materials to prepare composites for gas sensing. This has opened a new chapter in high-performance gas sensing materials and provided a new approach for advanced sensor research. However, previous reviews on MXene-based composite materials in gas sensing only focused on the performance of gas sensing, without systematically explaining the gas sensing mechanisms generated by different gases, as well as summarizing and predicting the advantages and disadvantages of MXene-based composite materials. This article reviews the latest progress in the application of MXene-based composite materials in gas sensing. Firstly, a brief summary was given of the commonly used methods for preparing gas sensing device structures, followed by an introduction to the key attributes of MXene related to gas sensing performance. This article focuses on the performance of MXene-based composite materials used for gas sensing, such as MXene/graphene, MXene/Metal oxide, MXene/Transition metal sulfides (TMDs), MXene/Metal-organic framework (MOF), MXene/Polymer. It summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of MXene composite materials with different composites and discusses the possible gas sensing mechanisms of MXene-based composite materials for different gases. Finally, future directions and inroads of MXenes-based composites in gas sensing are presented and discussed.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent a relatively new family of materials that attract lots of attention thanks to their unique features such as hierarchical porosity, active metal centers, versatility of linkers/metal nodes, and large surface area. Among the extended list of MOFs, Zr-based-MOFs demonstrate comparably superior chemical and thermal stabilities, making them ideal candidates for energy and environmental applications. As a Zr-MOF, NU-1000 is first synthesized at Northwestern University. A comprehensive review of various approaches to the synthesis of NU-1000 MOFs for obtaining unique surface properties (e.g., diverse surface morphologies, large surface area, and particular pore size distribution) and their applications in the catalysis (electro-, and photo-catalysis), CO2 reduction, batteries, hydrogen storage, gas storage/separation, and other environmental fields are presented. The review further outlines the current challenges in the development of NU-1000 MOFs and their derivatives in practical applications, revealing areas for future investigation.

Abstract
Polluted water has become a concern for the scientific community as it causes many severe threats to living beings. Detection or removal of contaminants present in wastewater and attaining purity of water that can be used for various purposes are a primary responsibility. Different treatment methods have already been used for the purification of sewage. There is a need for low-cost, highly selective, and reusable materials that can efficiently remove pollutants or purify contaminated water. In this regard, MOFs have shown significant potential for applications such as supercapacitors, drug delivery, gas storage, pollutant adsorption, etc. The outstanding structural diversity, substantial surface areas, and adjustable pore sizes of MOFs make them superior candidates for wastewater treatment. This Review provides an overview of the interaction science and engineering (kinetic and thermodynamic aspects with interactions) underpinning MOFs for water purification. First, fundamental strategies for the synthesis methods of MOFs, different categories, and their applicability in wastewater treatment are summarized, followed by a detailed explanation of various interaction mechanisms. Finally, current challenges and future outlooks for research on MOF materials toward the adsorption of hazardous components are discussed. A new avenue for modifying their structural characteristics for the adsorption and separation of hazardous materials, which will undoubtedly direct future work, is also summarized.

Abstract
The detection of toxic, harmful, explosive, and volatile gases cannot be separated from gas sensors, and gas sensors are also used to monitor the greenhouse effect and air pollution. However, existing gas sensors remain with many drawbacks, such as lower sensitivity, lower selectivity, and unstable room temperature detection. Thus, there is an imperative need to find more suitable sensing materials. The emergence of a new 2D layered material MXenes has brought dawn to solve this problem. The multiple advantages of MXenes, namely high specific surface area, enriched terminal functionality groups, hydrophilicity, and good electrical conductivity, make them among the most prolific gas-sensing materials. Therefore, this review paper describes the current main synthesis methods of MXenes materials, and focuses on summarizing and organizing the latest research results of MXenes in gas sensing applications. It also introduces the possible gas sensing mechanisms of MXenes materials on NH3 , NO2 , CH3 , and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). In conclusion, it provides insight into the problems and upcoming challenges of MXenes materials for gas sensing.

Abstract
The present study highlights the treatment of industrial effluent, which is one of the most life-threatening factors. Herein, for the first time, two types of NiO (green and black) photocatalysts were prepared by facile chemical precipitation and thermal decomposition methods separately. The synthesized NiO materials were demonstrated with various instrumental techniques for finding their characteristics. The X-ray diffraction studies (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed the presence of Ni2O3 in black NiO material. The transmission electron microscopic (TEM) images engrained the nanospherical shaped green NiO and nanoflower shaped black NiO/Ni2O3 materials. Further, the band gap of black NiO nanoflower was 2.9 eV compared to green NiO having 3.8 eV obtained from UV-vis spectroscopy. Meanwhile, both NiO catalysts were employed for visible light degradation, which yields a 60.3% efficiency of black NiO comparable to a 4.3% efficiency of green NiO within 180 min of exposure. The higher degrading efficiency of black NiO was due to the presence of Ni2O3 and the development of pores, which was evident from the Barrett-Joyner-Halenda (BJH) method. Type IV hysteresis was observed in black NiO nanoflowers with high surface area and pore size measurements. This black NiO/Ni2O3 synthesized from the thermal decomposition method has promoted better photocatalytic degradation of 4-chlorophenol upon exposure to visible light and is applicable for other industrial pollutants.

Abstract
The application of newly formulated beads from copper-benzenetricarboxylate (Cu-BTC), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), and chitosan (C), Cu-BTC@C-PAN, C-PAN, and PAN, for the removal of phenolic chemicals from water, is described in the current paper. Phenolic compounds (4-chlorophenol (4-CP) and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP)) were adsorbed using beads and the adsorption optimization looked at the effects of several experimental factors. The Langmuir and Freundlich models were used to explain the adsorption isotherms in the system. A pseudo-first and second-order equation is performed for describing the kinetics of adsorption. The obtained data fit (R2 = 0.999) supports the suitability of the Langmuir model and pseudo-second-order kinetic equation for the adsorption mechanism. Cu-BTC@C-PAN, C-PAN, and PAN beads' morphology and structure were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). According to the findings, Cu-BTC@C-PAN has very high adsorption capacities of 277.02, and 324.74 mg g-1, for 4-CP and 4-NP, respectively. The Cu-BTC@C-PAN beads showed 2.55 times higher adsorption capacity than PAN in the case of 4-NP, but in the case of 4-CP, it was higher by 2.64 times.

Abstract
Exploring a covalent organic framework (COF) material as an efficient metal-free photocatalyst and as an adsorbent for the removal of pollutants from contaminated water is very challenging in the context of sustainable chemistry. Herein, we report a new porous crystalline COF, C6-TRZ-TPA COF, via segregation of donor-acceptor moieties through the extended Schiff base condensation between tris(4-formylphenyl)amine and 4,4',4″-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyl)trianiline. This COF displayed a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area of 1058 m2 g-1 with a pore volume of 0.73 cc g-1. Again, extended π-conjugation, the presence of heteroatoms throughout the framework, and a narrow band gap of 2.2 eV, all these features collectively work for the environmental remediation in two different perspectives: it could harness solar energy for environmental clean-up, where the COF has been explored as a robust metal-free photocatalyst for wastewater treatment and as an adsorbent for iodine capture. In our endeavor of wastewater treatment, we have conducted the photodegradation of rose bengal (RB) and methylene blue (MB) as model pollutants since these are extremely toxic, are health hazard, and bioaccumulative in nature. The catalyst C6-TRZ-TPA COF showed a very high catalytic efficiency of 99% towards the degradation of 250 parts per million (ppm) of RB solution in 80 min under visible light irradiation with the rate constant of 0.05 min-1. Further, C6-TRZ-TPA COF is found to be an excellent adsorbent as it efficiently adsorbed radioactive iodine from its solution as well as from the vapor phase. The material exhibits a very rapid iodine capturing tendency with an outstanding iodine vapor uptake capacity of 4832 mg g-1.

Thus, it is necessary to develop effective methods to remove antibiotics from the natural aqueous environments. Metal-organic Frameworks (MOFs) - based adsorption and photocatalysis strategies have been demonstrated to be efficient, environmental and promising methods to solve antibiotic pollution and repair the environment. In this review, several strategies to improve the properties of MOFs for removal were summarized and discussed. And the removal mechanisms were also discussed. Besides, new and more reliable evaluation methods of MOFs to remove antibiotics were presented, including preferential adsorption (qp), quantum yields (QY), space time yields (SY) and figure of merit (FOM). This paper provides alternative perspectives for researchers to improve the properties of MOFs and raise analytic efficiency of antibiotic removal.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are attractive materials used as sorbents in analytical microextraction applications for contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) from environmental liquid matrices. The demanding specs for a sorbent in the analytical application can be comprehensively studied by considering the interactions of the target analytes with the frameworks by the use of single-crystal X-ray diffraction, computational analysis, and adsorption studies, including the kinetic ones. The current study intends a better understanding of the interactions of target CECs (particularly, propylparaben (PPB) as a model) and three Zn-based layered pillared MOFs: CIM-81 [Zn2(tz)2(bdc)] (Htz = 1,2,4-triazole and H2bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid) and their amino derivatives [Zn2(NH2-tz)2(bdc)] CIM-82 and [Zn2(tz)2(NH2-bdc)] CIM-83 (NH2-Htz = 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole and NH2-H2bdc = 2-amino-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid). The crystal structures of the two solvate compounds (dma@CIM-81 (dma = dimethylacetamide) and acetone@CIM-81) were solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction to determine the points of interaction between the framework and the guest molecules. They also served as a starting point for the computational modeling of the PPB@CIM-81 compound, showing that up to two PPB molecules can be hosted in one of the pores, while only one can be trapped in the second pore type, leading to a maximum theoretical capacity of 291.9 mg g-1. This value is close to the value obtained by the adsorption isotherm experiment for CIM-81 (283 mg g-1). This value is, by far, higher than those previously reported for other materials for the removal of PPB from water, and also higher than the experimental values obtained for CIM-82 (54 mg g-1) and CIM-83 (153 mg g-1). The kinetics of adsorption is not very fast, with uptake of about 40% in 3 h, although a 70% release in methanol is achieved in 1 h. In addition, a further comparison of performance in analytical microextraction (requiring only 10 mg of CIM-81) was carried out together with chromatographic analysis to support all insights attained, with the method being able to monitor CECs as low as μg L-1 levels in complex environmental water samples, thus performing successfully for water monitoring even in multicomponent scenarios.
