Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising materials for photocatalytic applications, particularly in degrading organic dyes in wastewater. This review focuses on zinc-based MOFs (Zn-MOFs), emphasizing their synthesis, characterization, and photocatalytic mechanisms in pollutant degradation.

May 1, 2023 · In this research, ZIF-8@Zn-MOF-74 nanocrystals with the hierarchical core–shell architecture were synthesized via a facile post-synthetic ligand exchange (PSE) method, which is a simple but versatile strategy to modify functionality of MOFs.

Jan 27, 2022 · A three-dimensional walnut-like Zn-based MOF microsphere system was designed and synthesized via hydrothermal reaction of zinc salt with 4,6-diamino-2-pyrimidinethiol as a tridentate ligand.

Aug 1, 2024 · Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been used to stabilize the metal zinc anode, yet the developed coating materials ignore the influence of intergranular space on deteriorating Zn electrode.

Zn-MOF is a kind of MOFs material formed using Zn and its derivatives as metal clusters and organic ligands. As an endogenous low-toxic transition metal cation, zinc has become an ideal candidate for the preparation of Zn-based MOFs for biological systems.

Jul 18, 2022 · Microporous Zn-MOF loaded and released 5-FU with high efficiency (approximately 53.3 wt%) and minimal cytotoxicity (64.9% in PBS and 81.9% in water with pH values of 6.9 and 7.4, respectively). The creation of pH-sensitive drug vectors based on Zn-MOF is a critical component of biomedical science.

Dec 30, 2024 · Interactions between metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and water are difficult to predict. Here, the authors report a Zn MOF follows two pathways upon water exposure.
