文摘Cellulose frameworks have emerged as promising materials for light management due to their exceptional light-scattering capabilities and sustainable nature.Conventional biomass-derived cellulose frameworks face a fundamental trade-off between haze and transparency,coupled with impractical thicknesses(≥1 mm).Inspired by squid’s skin-peeling mechanism,this work develops a peroxyformic acid(HCOOOH)-enabled precision peeling strategy to isolate intact 10-μm-thick bamboo green(BG)frameworks—100×thinner than wood-based counterparts while achieving an unprecedented optical performance(88%haze with 80%transparency).This performance surpasses delignified biomass(transparency<40%at 1 mm)and matches engineered cellulose composites,yet requires no energy-intensive nanofibrillation.The preserved native cellulose I crystalline structure(64.76%crystallinity)and wax-coated uniaxial fibril alignment(Hermans factor:0.23)contribute to high mechanical strength(903 MPa modulus)and broadband light scattering.As a light-management layer in polycrystalline silicon solar cells,the BG framework boosts photoelectric conversion efficiency by 0.41%absolute(18.74%→19.15%),outperforming synthetic anti-reflective coatings.The work establishes a scalable,waste-to-wealth route for optical-grade cellulose materials in next-generation optoelectronics.

文摘Three-dimensional supramolecular organic frameworks with precisely tunable pore sizes are highly demanded for a wide range of applications,e.g.,encapsulating enzymes to enhance their stability,activity,and reusability.However,precise control and tune the pore size of such frameworks still remains a significant challenge to date.In this study,we constructed supramolecular polymer frameworks using rigid tetrahedral star polyisocyanides with tunable length and sufficiently narrow distribution as building block.First,a series of tetrahedral four-arm star polyisocyanides with controlled chain lengths and narrow molecular weight distributions was prepared via the Pd(Ⅱ)-catalyzed living isocyanide polymerization.Then 2-ureido-4[1H]-pyrimidinone(Upy) unit was installed onto each chain-end of polyisocyanide arms via post-polymerization functionalization.Leveraging the supramolecular hydrogen bonding interactions between the terminal Upy units,well-ordered supramolecular polymer frameworks were readily obtained.Notably,the pore size was dependent on the chain length of the polyisocyanide arms.Precisely control the chain length of polyisocyanide arms,supramolecular polymer frameworks with pore sizes ranging from 5.06 nm to 9.72 nm were achieved.These frameworks,with tunable and large pore apertures,demonstrated exceptional capabilities in encapsulating enzymes of different sizes,such as lipase(TL),horseradish peroxidase(HRP),and glucose oxidase(GOx).The encapsulated enzymes exhibited significantly enhanced catalytic activity and durability.Moreover,the frameworks' tunable and large pore apertures facilitated the co-encapsulation of multiple enzymes,enabling efficient dual-enzyme cascade reactions.

文摘Redox-active porous aromatic frameworks(PAFs)have emerged as hopeful candidates for sodium-ion batteries(SIBs)in view of their porous structures,chemical stability and tunable architectures.Herein,we successfully synthesized two redox-active PAFs(PAF-305 and PAF-306)with different nitrogen-containing motifs,and demonstrated their application as cathode materials for SIBs.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations reveal that nitrogen-rich PAF-305 exhibits a lower lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO)energy level(-3.35 eV)and a narrower energy gap(E_(g))(2.40 eV)compared with nitrogen-poor PAF-306.As expected,PAF-305 displays outstanding electrochemical performance,comprising a high reversible capacity of 145.2 mAh g^(-1)at 0.05 A g^(-1)and satisfactory cycling stability with 92% capacity retention over 1000 cycles at 0.2 A g^(-1).Remarkably,PAF-305 maintains robust electrochemical properties across a wide temperature range(-20℃ to 50℃).Through a combination of experimental characterizations and theoretical calculations,the sodium-ion storage mechanism of PAF-305 is elucidated.This study not only provides a promising strategy for exploring other redox-active organic units in the design of novel PAFs,but also expands the potential applications of PAFs in energy storage systems.
文摘CO_(2)reduction technology can promote the resource utilization of carbon and help alleviate global warming and energy supply pressure.It is an effective way to achieve energy conversion and utilization.Covalent organic frameworks(COFs)are porous crystalline materials formed by connecting organic monomers through covalent bonds.They have the characteristics of functional diversity and rich chemical properties.Their advantages,such as high porosity,a wide range of visible light absorption,and excellent charge separation efficiency,give them good potential in CO_(2)capture,separation,and conversion.Currently,Cu is a key metal in the catalytic CO_(2)reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR)for the preparation of high-value-added chemicals.The preparation of highly stable and large-pore Cu-based COFs using COFs as an ideal sacrificial template for loading Cu can be used to develop high-performance electrocatalysts and photocatalysts.In this review,we discuss the latest advancements in this field,including the development of various Cu-based COFs and their applications as catalysts for CO_(2)RR.Here,we mainly introduce the synthesis strategies,some important characterization information,and the applications of electrocatalytic and photocatalytic CO_(2)conversion using these previously reported Cu-based COFs.

文摘As a key low-carbon energy source,nuclear power plays a vital role in the global transition toward sustainable energy.Photocatalytic uranium extraction from seawater(UES)offers a promising solution to ensure long-term uranium supply but is challenged by ultra-low uranium concentrations and ion interference.To overcome these issues,we design three diketopyrrolopyrrole-based covalent organic frameworks(COFs)via a synergisticπ-extended lock and carboxyl-functionalized anchor molecular engineering strategy.Among them,TPy-DPP-COF features a covalently lockedπ-conjugated structure that enhances planarity,optimizes energy alignment,and minimizes exciton binding energy,thereby promoting charge transfer and suppressing recombination.Concurrently,carboxyl groups enable uranyl-specific coordination and create local electric fields to facilitate charge separation.These features contribute to the outstanding performance of TPy-DPP-COF,which achieves a high uranium adsorption capacity of 16.33 mg g−1 in natural seawater under irradiation,with only 29.3%capacity loss after 10 cycles,surpassing industrial benchmarks.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations and experimental studies reveal a synergistic photocatalysis-adsorption pathway,with DPP units acting as active sites for uranium reduction.This work highlights a molecular design strategy for developing efficient COF-based photocatalysts for practical marine uranium recovery.
文摘Triclosan(TCS) poses harmful risks to ecosystems and human health owing to its endocrine-disrupting effects.Therefore,developing an efficient and sustainable technology to degrade TCS is urgently needed.Herein,cobalt oxyhydroxide @covalent organic frameworks(CoOOH@COFs) S-scheme heterojunction was synthesized,which combined the visible-light-driven photocatalysis and peroxymonosulfate(PMS) activation to synergistically generate abundant reactive oxygen species(ROSs) for TCS degradation.The degradation efficiency of TCS reached 100 % within 8 min in the Vis-CoOOH@COFs/PMS system,and the reaction rate constant was 0.456 min^(-1),which was nearly 1.90 and 2.85 times that of single Co OOH and COFs,and2.36 times that under dark condition,respectively.The density functional theory(DFT) calculations confirmed the energy band bending of CoOOH@COFs and S-scheme charge transport from COFs to Co OOH.Both experimental and theoretical analyses indicated that Co OOH@COFs in photocatalytic-PMS activation systems synergistically facilitated photo-generated carrier separation,enhanced interfacial electron transfer,accelerated PMS activation,and generated multiple ROSs.In particular,photogenerated electrons(e^(-))accelerated the Co(Ⅲ)/Co(Ⅱ) redox cycle,while the PMS captured the e-,which significantly decreased the charge combination of Co OOH@COFs.Radicals(O_(2)^(·-),^(·)OH,and SO_(4)^(·-)) and non-radicals(such as ^(1)O_(2),h^(+),and e^(-)) were both presented in the Vis-CoOOH@COFs/PMS system,with O_(2)^(-) playing a dominant role in TCS degradation.Furthermore,the pathway of TCS degradation and toxicity of intermediates were explored by DFT calculation and transformation product identification.Importantly,the environmentally friendly CoOOH@COFs S-scheme heterojunction exhibited excellent stability and reusability.In conclusion,this study innovatively designed an S-scheme heterojunction in the photocatalytic-PMS activation system,providing guidance and theoretical support for efficient and eco-friendly wastewater treatment.

文摘The practical deployment of lithium metal batteries remains severely constrained,especially under elevated temperatures.Although metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)improve the thermal stability of liquid electrolytes by capturing them in well-ordered sub-nanopores,interparticle voids between MOF particles readily absorb liquid electrolyte,obscuring our understanding of the intrinsic role of nanopores in directing Li^(+)transport.To address this challenge,we introduce a one-dimensional(1D)MOF model architecture that eliminates interparticle effects and enables direct observation of Li^(+)solvation and de-solvation dynamics.Comparative studies of 1D HKUST-1 and ZIF-8 uncover distinct transport behaviors,supported by both experimental measurements and neural network potential-based molecular dynamics simulations.Building on these insights,we construct a hierarchical core-shell MOF architecture by integrating ZIF-8(core)and HKUST-1(shell)onto a hybrid fiber scaffold.This design harnesses the complementary strengths of both MOFs to achieve continuous ion pathways,directional Li^(+)conduction,and improved thermal and electrochemical resilience.

文摘The recovery of gold from waste electronic and electric equipment(WEEE) has gained great attention with the increased number of WEEE,because it can largely alleviate the pressure on the environment and resources.Covalent organic frameworks(COFs) are ideal adsorbents for gold recovery owing to their large surface area,good stability,easily functionalized ability,periodic structures,and definitive nanopores.Herein,a cyano-functionalized COF(COF-CN) with high crystallinity was large-scale prepared under mild conditions for the recovery of gold.The introduction of cyano groups enable COF-CN to exhibit excellent gold recovery performance,which possesses fast adsorption kinetics,high cycling stability,and adsorption capacity up to 663.67 mg/g.Excitingly,COF-CN showed extremely high selectivity for gold ions,even in the presence of various competing cations and anions.The COF-CN maintained excellent selectivity and removal efficiency in gold recovery experiments from WEEE.The facile synthesis of COF-CN and its outstanding selectivity in actual samples make it an attractive opportunity for practical gold recovery.

文摘Two supramolecular organic frameworks(SOFs)have been constructed from the co-assembly of biimidazolium-derived octacationic components and cucurbit[8]uril in water.Dynamic light scattering and ^(1)H NMR experiments reveal that both SOFs can undergo reversible assembly and disassembly at room temperature.One of the SOFs displays unprecedently high maximum tolerated dose of 120 mg/kg with mice,which improves by 40%compared with the highest value of the reported SOFs.In vitro and in vivo tests show that the SOF can adsorb doxorubicin and overcome the resistance of multidrugresistant MDR A549/ADR tumor cells to realize intracellular delivery,leading to enhanced antitumor efficacy.Moreover,it can also completely inhibit the posttreatment phototoxicity of photofrin and fully neutralize the anticoagulation of both unfractionated heparin and low molecular weight heparins through efficient inclusion and elimination or sequestration mechanism.As the first examples that undergo roomtemperature reversible assembly and disassembly,the new SOFs in principle allow for quantitative analysis of the molecular components in the body that is prerequisite for preclinical evaluation in the future.

文摘Photosynthesis of hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))via oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and water oxidation reaction(WOR)pathways requires controlled formation of radical intermediates.However,achieving precise control over radical formation in metal-free catalysts remains challenging.Herein,we report a fluorinated COF(Kf-F-COF)featuring framework-bound carbonyl groups as intrinsic radical-generating sites for efficient dual-channel H_(2)O_(2)photosynthesis.This design enables the simultaneous activation of O_(2)and H_(2)O through radical-mediated hydrogen atom transfer processes.Mechanistic studies reveal that fluorination enhances the electron affinity of the carbonyl sites,facilitates diradical formation,and lowers the energy barriers of key reaction steps.As a result,Kf-F-COF achieves a high H_(2)O_(2)production rate of 6.42 mmol g^(-1)h^(-1)and long-term stability under natural sunlight and seawater conditions.This work presents a frameworkcentered radical strategy for dual-pathway H_(2)O_(2)photosynthesis and offers mechanistic insights into regulating COF-based photocatalysts.

文摘Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks(COFs)with specific morphologies including nanofibers and nanoplates are highly desired in both nanoscience research and practical applications.Thus far,however,morphology engineering for COFs remains challenging because the mechanism underlying the morphology formation and evolution of COFs is not well understood.Herein,we propose a strategy of surfactant mediation coupled with acid adjustment to engineer the morphology of aβ-ketoenamine-linked COF,TpPa,during solvothermal synthesis.The surfactants function as stabilizers that can encapsulate monomers and prepolymers to create micelles,enabling the formation of fiber-like and plate-like morphologies of TpPa rather than irregularly shaped aggregates.It is also found that acetic acid is important in regulating such morphologies,as the amino groups inside the prepolymers can be precisely protonated by acid adjustment,leading to an inhibited ripening process for the creation of specific morphologies.Benefitting from the synergistic enhancement of surfactant mediation and acid adjustment,TpPa nanofibers with a diameter down to~20 nm along with a length of up to a few microns and TpPa nanoplates with a thickness of~18 nm are created.Our work sheds light on the mechanism underlying the morphology formation and evolution of TpPa,providing some guidance for exquisite control over the growth of COFs,which is of great significance for their practical applications.
