Abstract
In this research, poly-chloropropylmethyl-silsesquioxanen was prepared and decorated with ZIF-8 in order to investigate its loading capacity for acyclovir and tetracycline. Before and after drug loadings, the composites were characterized by FT-IR, SEM-EDS, XRD, and XPS analyses. Then, the in-vitro release of these drugs was investigated by UV-Vis spectroscopy in different buffers (pH = 5, 7.4, and 9.1). The results showed that the release of ACV reached a maximum amount of 41.3 mg at pH = 7.4 during 12 h. In comparison, the release of TC reached a maximum amount of 22.5 mg at pH = 5 during 6 h. The blood compatibility, in-vitro cytotoxicity on the L929 fibroblast cells line, and antibacterial assay against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were also investigated for this composite as a drug carrier.

Abstract
Green nanotechnology is one of the most expanding fields that provides numerous novel nanoparticle drug formulations with enhanced bioactivity performance. This study aims to synthesize mesoporous metal organic framework (ZIF-8) phytofabricated with the herb Allium sativum (As) as an indicator system for its antibacterial and antifungal impact. The successful synthesis of ZIF-8 as nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and scanning coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (SEM-EDX and TEM) that showed the textural retainment of ZIF-8 on composite formation with A. sativum. The nanocomposite, A. sativum extract, and ZIF-8 were subjected to antimicrobial assays against Shigella flexneri, Candida albicans, and Candida parapsilosis. The comparative results indicated the potential action of nanocomposite against the bacteria and both the Candida sps; however, the antifungal action against the Candida sps was more effective than the bacterium S. flexneri. The findings suggest that plants, being an important component of ecosystems, could be further explored for the novel drug discovery using green nanotechnology to enhance their impact on the drug-resistant pathogens.

Abstract
While intensive studies have focused on the synthesis and characterization of new metal-organic nanotube (MONT) structures, the lack of size and morphology control remains an obstacle in broadening applications for this class of materials. Herein, we demonstrate control of MONT crystallite size and morphology by tuning polarity and the protic/aprotic nature of solvents, including dimethylformamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, ethanol, and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, for the isostructural syntheses of two MONTs. Through a combination of transmission electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and selected area electron diffraction, we find that MONT crystallite sizes can be tuned while maintaining control over the relative dispersity without significantly altering the underlying crystal structure.

Abstract
The chemical/physical properties and reliable performance of nanoporous materials are strongly influenced by the particle size and corresponding distribution. Among many types of MOFs, ZIF-8, is still widely used and many studies have been conducted to control the particle size and uniformity of ZIF-8 using surfactants and organic solvents. However, the use of surfactants and organic solvents process is expensive and may cause environmental pollution. For the first time, in this paper, a surfactant-free, size-controllable, and scalable green synthesis method of ZIF-8 particles is reported using four reaction parameters (temperature, concentration, pouring time, and reactant ratio) that affect the formation of nuclei and growth of ZIF-8 crystals. The as-synthesized ZIF-8 nanoparticles show great uniformity and controllable particle sizes in the wide range of 147-915 nm. In addition, a 2 L large-scale synthesis of ZIF-8 with narrow size distribution is developed by finely tuned particle size in water without any additives. To demonstrate the efficient utilization of nanopores according to the particle size and size distribution, an adsorption test is conducted on the ZIF-8 nanoparticles. This study will support the synthesis of size-controlled ZIF-8 with narrow size distribution and their composites for achieving high performance in the emerging applications.

Abstract
Among various metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), the zeolitic imidazole framework (ZIF), constructed by the regular arrangement of 2-methylimidazole and metal ions, has garnered significant attention due to its distinctive crystals and pore structures. Variations in the sizes and shapes of ZIF crystals have been reported by changing the synthesis parameters, such as the molar ratios of organic ligands to metal ions, choice of solvents, and temperatures. Nonetheless, the giant ZIF-8 single crystals beyond the typical range have rarely been reported. Herein, we present the synthesis of millimeter-scale single crystal ZIF-8 using the solvothermal method in N,N-diethylformamide. The resulting 1-mm single crystal is carefully characterized through N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, scanning electron microscopy, and other analytical techniques. Additionally, single-crystal X-ray diffraction is employed to comprehensively investigate the framework's mobility at various temperatures.

Abstract
The ultrasound-assisted preparation of UiO-66 was carried out at T = 80-220 °C, and the catalytic performances were evaluated in methanol conversion. Also, physicochemical properties were assessed by XRD, SEM, PSD, FTIR, N2 adsorption-desorption, TG-DTG, and NH3-TPD analysis. The characterization proved that increasing the synthesis temperature positively affected the crystallinity, specific surface area, thermal stability, and acidity of the catalysts. Besides, the catalysts' performance was investigated in the methanol conversion reaction (T = 350-450 °C, P = 1 atm, and WHSV = 5 h-1), leading to the DME (Dimethyl Ether) production. Rising reaction temperature increased the methanol conversion and DME yield. The synthesized sample at 220 °C had the best properties and performance with conversion and yield of about 38% and 51%, respectively. The stability test for the UiO-66-220 (University of Oslo 66) catalyst was performed at 450 °C for 12 h, and the activity remained stable for about 5 h. Furthermore, the used catalyst was characterized via XRD and TG analysis.

Abstract
Transition metal single atom catalysts (TM SACs) are the most promising oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) and metal-air batteries. However, the low density of M-Nx active sites seriously hinders further improvement of the ORR electrocatalytic activity. Here, a strategy for encapsulating nitrogen-rich guest molecules (triethylenediamine cobalt complex, [Co(en)3]3+) was proposed to construct a high-performance cobalt single-atom catalyst (Co-encapsulated SAC/NC). With this strategy, the guest molecules are encapsulated into metal-organic framework (MOF) cages as an additional cobalt source to boost cobalt loading, while abundant nitrogen from guest molecules contributes to the formation of Co-N4 active sites. Remarkably, the resulting Co-encapsulated SAC/NC has a high cobalt loading amount of 4.03 wt%, and spherical aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy (AC-TEM) has confirmed that most cobalt exists in a single-atom state. As a result, the Co-encapsulated SAC/NC exhibits excellent ORR catalytic performance with a half-wave potential of 0.88 V. Furthermore, Zn-air batteries employing Co-encapsulated SAC/NC as air cathode show high peak power density and excellent cycling stability. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that adjacent active sites have different rate-determining steps and lower reaction energy barriers than a single active site.

Abstract
Toxic antibiotic effluents and antibiotic-resistant bacteria constitute a threat to global health. So, scientists are investigating high-performance materials for antibiotic decomposition and antibacterial activities. In this novel research work, we have successfully designed ZIF-8@ZIF-67 nanocomposites via sol-gel and solvothermal approaches. The ZIF-8@ZIF-67 nanocomposite is characterized by various techniques that exhibit superior surface area enhancement, charge separation, and high light absorption performance. Yet, ZIF-8 has high adsorption rates and active sites, while ZIF-67 has larger pore volume and efficient adsorption and reaction capabilities, demonstrating that the ZIF-8@ZIF-67 nanocomposite outperforms pristine ZIF-8 and ZIF-67. Compared with pristine ZIF-8 and ZIF-67, the most active 6ZIF-67@ZIF-8 nanocomposite showed higher decomposition efficacy for ciprofloxacin (65%), levofloxacin (54%), and ofloxacin (48%). Scavenger experiments confirmed that •OH, •O2-, and h+ are the most active species for the decomposition of ciprofloxacin (CIP), levofloxacin (LF), and ofloxacin (OFX), respectively. In addition, the 6ZIF-67/ZIF-8 nanocomposite suggested its potential applications in Escherichia coli for growth inhibition zone, antibacterial activity, and decreased viability. Moreover, the stability test and decomposition pathway of CIP, LF, and OFX were also proposed. Finally, our study aims to enhance the efficiency and stability of ZIF-8@ZIF-67 nanocomposite and potentially enable its applications in antibiotic decomposition, antibacterial activities, and environmental remediation.

Abstract
A zeolitic imidazole framework (ZIF-67) template-derived cobalt@nitrogen-doped carbon-sulfur composite (ZIF-Co@NCS) was synthesized using a freeze-drying method and explored for lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. Material characterizations confirmed the formation of the ZIF-Co@NCS composite. To fabricate the Li-S battery in a coin-type CR-2032 cell, the as-synthesized ZIF-Co@NCS composite having a sulfur content of ∼65% was used as a cathode material and coupled with a lithium metal anode. This battery demonstrated exceptional cycling stability over 600 charge-discharge cycles with a steady capacity of 550 mAh g-1 at 0.05 C-rate. The good electrochemical performance of the cathode was ascribed to the nanofeatures associated with the freeze-dried porous carbon structure, which offered enough space for the sulfur cathode. The enhanced trapping of polysulfide facilitated by the presence of the Co-N sites in the ZIF-Co@NCS composite led to excellent cycling stability. The derived cathode composite showed a high specific capacity, outstanding rate capability, and excellent cyclic stability rendering it a promising candidate for high-performance Li-S batteries. Detailed Li+ ion charge storage examined by means of Dunn's method revealed a significant capacitive mode of charge storage both at peak currents and nonpeak currents. The post-mortem analysis of the cycled cathode using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy at different depth-of-discharge (DOD) values revealed the stepwise formation of discharge products.

Abstract
With significant technological advances, solid-state gas sensors have been extensively applied to detect toxic gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in confined areas such as indoor environments and industries and to identify gas leakage. Semiconductor metal oxides are the primary sensing materials, although their major drawbacks include a lack of sensitivity, poor performance at high humidity, and operating at high temperatures ranging between 140 and 400 °C. Recently, the use of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) in gas sensors has received considerable attention as a promising material to overcome the drawbacks possessed by semiconductor metal oxide-based gas sensors. Because of their unique properties, including size tunability, high surface area, and stability in humidity, ZIF becomes a preferred candidate for sensing materials. The use of ZIF materials in gas sensors is limited because of their high-temperature operation and low gas responses. This review outlines the strategies and developments in the utilization of ZIF-based materials in gas sensing. The significant influence of the addition of carbon additives in ZIF materials for temperature operation sensors is discussed.

Abstract
In this study, we show that glycerol carbonate (GlyC), a bio-based derivative of glycerol, can be used as a suitable green solvent for the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). In particular, a zinc-based zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) was synthesized by exploring several different experimental conditions (in terms of temperature, reaction time, and reactants' concentrations) to find that the yield of the reaction and the quality of the products, measured in terms of crystallinity, surface area, and porosity, were in line with those obtained in the most commonly (non-green) used solvents. GlyC was also found to be reusable for several cycles, maintaining the same original quality as a solvent for the synthesis. Finally, some indicators for the assessment of the greenness of a process (E-factor and PMI) revealed a milder environmental impact of GlyC with respect to other solvents.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) attract the attention of researchers due to their unique properties, such as high surface area, porosity, and stability. Therefore, in this study, the synthesis of zeolitic imidazole frameworks (ZIF-8), a subclass of MOFs, and copper oxide (Cu2O) and manganese oxide (MnO2) containing ZIF-8 was carried out by a mixing method with methanol. The characterization results show that the polyhedral structure of ZIF-8 was prepared with a surface area of 2088 m2/g and a crystallite size of 43.48 nm. Then, each and mixture of two metal oxides were introduced into the ZIF-8 crystal structure. It was found that the surface area and pore volumes of all metal/ZIF-8 samples decreased with metal loading, depending on the type and ratio of metal oxides. The ZIF-8 containing 4.0 wt % Cu2O and 1.0 wt % MnO2 had the highest surface area (2084 m2/g), which was closest to that of ZIF-8. The polyhedral structure was maintained by the addition of both metal oxides, and the crystal size of the material decreased with the loading of MnO2 to the ZIF-8 structure. All of the synthesized samples were analyzed in supercapacitor applications and a relatively higher value of specific capacitance was obtained for Cu-Mn/ZIF-8 due to higher surface area and improved conductivity. In addition to supercapacitor applications, the properties of metal/ZIF-8 are also promising for applications such as catalysts, membranes, and gas storage.

Abstract
The extension application of perovskites in aqueous media such as bioassays requires the development of a water-stable perovskite with a simple preparation process and low cost. However, the degradation of perovskites in aqueous solution is still a thorny problem. Here, we develop a methylimidazole-assisted two-step synthesis protocol to prepare CsPbBr3@PbBrOH nanorods with superior water stability and remarkable optical properties at room temperature. The synergy of 2-methylimidazole (2-MIM), an N-donor ligand, with water can not only facilitate CsPbBr3 formation and suppress CsPb2Br5 or Cs4PbBr6 formation, but also promote the formation of a PbBrOH shell capping CsPbBr3. 2-MIM is ionized into 2-MIM- in DMF and 2-MIM+ in water. They passivated the surface defects and changed the crystallization environment, leading to water-stable CsPbBr3@PbBrOH. The obtained CsPbBr3@PbBrOH nanorods can still maintain 91% PL intensity after being stored in water for more than 2 months. Furthermore, the CsPbBr3@PbBrOH nanorods show excellent stability in polar solvents, water, and phosphate buffer solution in a wide pH range, as well as better thermal and irradiation stability. In addition, the CsPbBr3@PbBrOH nanorods are further functionalized with polydopamine (PDA) for biomolecular immobilization and immunoassay studies. The resulting assay shows a detection limit of 0.003 ng mL-1 for IgG detection, illustrating important progress towards expanding fluorescence labeling application of perovskite nanomaterials for immunoassays.

Abstract
The use of nanomaterials for the controlled release of drugs aims to enhance their effectiveness, especially when poorly soluble in water, and achieve their rapid, localized, and effective administration. The present study focuses on the use of a Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8 (ZIF-8) as vehicle for the transport and controlled release of the antibiotic ciprofloxacin (CIP) as model due to its favorable physicochemical characteristics. The objective is to synthesize the ZIF-8 material loaded with CIP through encapsulation for subsequent release of the drug in neutral and acid physiological media. In addition, functionalization of the CIP/ZIF compound with magnetic nanoparticles (NP) was sought to increase its traceability through the possible use of magnetic fields. Characterizations by XRD, FT-IR, SEM-EDX, and TGA showed a satisfactory synthesis of both pure ZIF-8 and ciprofloxacin-loaded ZIF-8, with high crystallinity and thermal stability. The release profiles showed an abrupt initial release that stabilized over time. A much higher release (20-80% greater) was obtained in acid versus neutral pH in all cases, attributable to the collapse of the ZIF-8 structure in acid media. In addition, functionalization of the material with iron NPs did not affect the behavior of the system during drug release. Antimicrobial activity tests against E. coli and S. aureus showed that ZIF-8 per se exerts antimicrobial activity, while the compounds CIP/ZIF and magnetic CIP/ZIF increased the antimicrobial capacity of pure CIP by 10-20%. The ZIF-8 system has high potential as a drug carrier and release agent for the treatment of diseases, especially those that cause acidification of the cellular environment, achieving a rapid, localized, and targeted action with the possibility of achieving traceability of the system after its magnetic functionalization.

Abstract
Well-defined polyhedral ZIF-67 metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are usually synthesized using methanol as solvent. In this work, methanol is replaced with deionized water as a solvent to synthesize ZIF-67 MOFs with unique nanoflake morphology. The ZIF-67 nanoflakes are synthesized directly byin situmethod on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to obtain ZIF-67/rGO-xprecursors which are further transformed into NiCo-layered double hydroxide nanocomposites (NiCo-LDH/rGO-x,x = 10, 30, 50 and 90 mg of rGO). The NiCo-LDH/rGO-xnanostructured composites are found to be excellent materials for battery type supercapacitor (supercapattery) applications. Among these samples, the NiCo-LDH/rGO-30 composite gives maximum specific capacity of 829 C g-1(1658 F g-1) at a current density of 1 A g-1and high rate capability. The as fabricated 2-electrode symmetric Swagelok deviceNiCo-LDH/rGO-30NiCo-LDH/rGO-30delivered a high energy density of 49.2 Wh kg-1and a power density of 4511 W kg-1, and enabled us to glow red, blue and white LED bulbs using three coin cells. The device can show good capacity retention even after 3000 continuous charge-discharge cycles. The NiCo-LDH/rGO-30 composite,in situderived from ZIF-67 MOF in combination with optimal amount of rGO, is an excellent material to deliver both high energy density and high power density in supercapattery devices.

Abstract
Abstract
Recently, many studies are dealing with developments of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), especially MIL-53(Al), which shows high thermal and mechanical stability. Among these, optimizing the synthesis condition of MIL-53(Al) to obtain appropriate characteristics has attracted much attention in academia and the industry. Here, the effect of synthesis time and ligand to metal molar ratio on the hydrothermal synthesis of MIL-53(Al) are pursued. The synthesized MIL-53(Al) samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption technique (BET). The present study shows that MIL-53(Al) can be conventionally synthesized with a high yield within a shorter reaction time than the previous studies. Furthermore, the catalytic activity of the optimized MIL-53(Al) in the pure and Mn-doped form is studied in a methanol dehydration reaction. It is thus inferred that this popular MOF in the Mn/MIL-53(Al) form has a high activity and DME selectivity during methanol conversion. Our present results confirm the merits of employing the MIL-53(Al) as a catalyst in methanol to DME conversion, which can be an avenue for the practical application of acidic catalyst.

Abstract
There has been growing concern about the toxic effects of pollutants in the aquatic environment. In this study, a novel cell-based electrochemical sensor was developed to detect the toxicity of contaminants in water samples. A screen-printed carbon electrode, which was low-cost, energy-efficient, and disposable, was modified with tungsten disulfide nanosheets/hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (WS2/MWCNTs-OH) to improve electrocatalytic performance and sensitivity. The surface morphology, structure, and electrochemical property of WS2/MWCNTs-OH composite film were characterized by emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Grass carp kidney cell line was utilized as the sensor biorecognition element to determine the electrochemical signals and evaluate cell viability. The sensor was used to detect the toxicity of one typical contaminant (2,4,6-trichlorophenol) and two emerging contaminants (bisphenol AF and polystyrene nanoplastics). The 48 h half inhibitory concentration (IC50) values were 169.96 μM, 21.88 μM, and 123.01 μg mL-1, respectively, which were lower than those of conventional MTT assay, indicating the higher sensitivity of the proposed sensor. Furthermore, the practical application of the sensor was evaluated in chemical wastewater samples. This study provides an up-and-coming tool for environmental toxicity monitoring.
