Herein, nitrogen doped carbon silicon matrix composite with atomically dispersed Co sites(Si/Co-N-C) is obtained via the design of the frame structure loaded with nano-components and the multi-element hybrid strategy. Co atoms are uniformly fixed to the N-C frame and tightly packed with nanoscale silicon particles as an activation and protection building block. The mechanism of the N-C framework of loaded metal Co in the Si alloying process is revealed by electrochemical kinetic analysis and ex situ characterization tests.Impressively, the nitrogen-doped Co site activates the intercalation of the outer carbon matrix to supplement the additional capacity. The Co nanoparticles with high conductivity and support enhance the conductivity and structural stability of the composite, accelerating the Li^(+)/Na^(+) diffusion kinetics. Density functional theory(DFT) calculation confirms that the hetero-structure Si/Co-N-C adjusts the electronic structure to obtain good lithium-ion adsorption energy, reduces the Li^(+)/Na^(+) migration energy barrier.This work provides meaningful guidance for the development of high-performance metal/non-metal modified anode materials.展开更多

To maximize their catalytic efficiency, rational design of efficient electrocatalysts with rich exposed active sites is highly desired. Besides, due to the complexity of nitrogen species, the identification of active nitrogen sites for ORR remains challenging. Herein, we develop a facile and scalable template method to construct high-concentration nitrogen-doped carbon hollow frameworks(NC), and reveal the effect of different nitrogen species on theirORRactivity on basis of experimental analysis and theoretical calculations. The formation mechanism is clearly revealed, including low-pressure vapor superassembly of thin zeolitic imidazolate framework(ZIF-8) shell on ZnO templates,in situ carbonization and template removal. The obtained NC-800 displays better ORR activity compared with other NC-700 and NC-900 samples. Our results indicate that the superior ORR activity of NC-800 is mainly attributed to its content balance of three nitrogen species. The graphitic N and pyrrolic N sites are responsible for lowering the working function, while the pyridinic N and pyrrolic N sites as possible active sites are beneficial for increasing the density of states.展开更多

文摘In the present work,a zinc-based metal-organic framework{[Zn(ddpd)_(0.5)(bipy)_(0.5)]·H_(2)O]}_(n)(1-Zn)(where ddpd=2,5-di(2',4'-dic arboxylphenyl)-1,4-difluorobenzene,bipy=4,4-bipyridine)was synthesized by a solvothermal method.Complex 1-Zn features a threedimensional(2,4,6)-connected network with{4^2.6^2.8^2}_(2){4^4.6^6.8^5}{6}topology.Meanwhile,without the assistance of other reagents,complex 1-Zn not only exhibited an exceeded 95%photodegradation efficiency for rhodamine B(Rh B),methyl blue(MB)and methyl orange(MO)within 40 min,but also showed high stability and recyclability.In addition,free radical quenching experiments and electron spin resonance(ESR)spectroscopy verified that the main active species in the photodegradation process were·O_(2)^(-)and OH,and a more indepth degradation mechanism was further elucidated by density functional theory(DFT)calculations.

文摘Mercury(Hg)ions can lead to a serious impact on the environment;therefore,it was necessary to find an effective method for absorbing these toxic Hg ions.Here,the adsorbent(Zn-AHMT)was synthesized from zinc nitrate and 4-amino 3-hydrazine-5 mercapto-1,2,4-triazole(AHMT)by one-step method and,characterized the microstruc-ture and absorption performance by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),field emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),Brunauer-Emmett Teller(BET),Thermal Gravimetric Analyzer(TGA)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS).Through a plethora of measurements,we found that the maximum adsorption capacity was 802.8 mg/g when the optimal pH of Zn-AHMT was 3.0.The isothermal and kinetic experiments confirm that the reaction process of Zn-AHMT was chemisorption,while the adsorption process conforms to the Hill model and pseudo second order kinetic model.Thermodynamic experiments showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic.Selective experiments were performed in the simulated wastewater containing Mn,Mg,Cr,Al,Co,Ni,Hg ions.Our results showed that the Zn-AHMT has a stronger affinity for Hg ions.The removal rate of Zn-AHMT remained above 98%,indicating that the Zn-AHMT had a good stability validated by three adsorption-desorption repeatable tests.According to the XPS results,the adsorption reaction of Zn-AHMT was mainly attributed to the chelation and ion exchange.This was further explained by both density functional theory(DFT)calculation and frontier molecular orbital theory.We therefore propose the adsorption mechanism of Zn-AHMT.The adsorption reaction facilitates via the synergistic action of S and N atoms.Moreover,the bonding between the adsorbent and the N atom has been proved to be more stable.Our study demonstrated that Zn-AHMT had a promising application prospect in mercury removal.

文摘Construction of metal-organic-frame works-based composite photocatalysts has attracted much attention for the reasonable band gap and high surface areas to improve the photocatalytic activity.In this study,the ternary heterojunction Pd@UiO-66-NH_(2)@ZnIn_(2)S_(4)nanocomposites were facilely prepared for the first time by a two-step method.The visible-light-promoted hydrogen production rate of 0.3%Pd@UiO-66-NH_(2)@ZnIn_(2)S_(4)reaches up to 5.26 mmol g^(-1)h^(-1),which is evidently much higher than pure UiO-66-NH_(2),ZnIn_(2)S_(4)and binary UiO-66-NH_(2)/ZnIn_(2)S_(4)composites.Such a huge improvement in the photocatalytic performance is mainly attributed to the matched band gap of ZnIn_(2)S_(4)and UiO-66-NH_(2),and the introduction of Pd NPs into photocatalysts that broaden spectral response range and promote the photon induced charge carrier separation.This work may provide a feasible approach for the design and construction of metal-organic-frameworks-based photocatalytic materials.

文摘Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)are becoming more and more popular as the fillers in polymer electrolytes in recent years.In this study,a series of MOFs(NH_(2)-MIL-101(Fe),MIL-101(Fe),activated NH_(2)-MIL-101(Fe)and activated MIL-101(Fe))were synthesized and added to PEO-based solid composite electrolytes(SCEs).Furthermore,the role of the—NH_(2)groups and open metal sites(OMSs)were both examined.Different ratios of MOFs vs polymers were also studied by the electrochemical characterizations.At last,we successfully designed a novel solid composite electrolyte containing activated NH_(2)-MIL-101(Fe),PEO,Li TFSI and PVDF for the high-performance all-solid-state lithium-metal batteries.This work might provide new insight to understand the interactions between polymers and functional groups or OMSs of MOFs better.

文摘Nitrogen-doped carbon materials as promising oxygen reduction reaction(ORR) electrocatalysts attract great interest in fuel cells and metal-air batteries because of their relatively high activity, high surface area, high conductivity and low cost. To maximize their catalytic efficiency, rational design of efficient electrocatalysts with rich exposed active sites is highly desired. Besides, due to the complexity of nitrogen species, the identification of active nitrogen sites for ORR remains challenging. Herein, we develop a facile and scalable template method to construct high-concentration nitrogen-doped carbon hollow frameworks(NC), and reveal the effect of different nitrogen species on theirORRactivity on basis of experimental analysis and theoretical calculations. The formation mechanism is clearly revealed, including low-pressure vapor superassembly of thin zeolitic imidazolate framework(ZIF-8) shell on ZnO templates,in situ carbonization and template removal. The obtained NC-800 displays better ORR activity compared with other NC-700 and NC-900 samples. Our results indicate that the superior ORR activity of NC-800 is mainly attributed to its content balance of three nitrogen species. The graphitic N and pyrrolic N sites are responsible for lowering the working function, while the pyridinic N and pyrrolic N sites as possible active sites are beneficial for increasing the density of states.

文摘Constructing molecule@support composites is an attractive strategy to realize heterogeneous molecular electrocatalysis.Herein,we synthesized metal-organic framework(MOF)-supported molecular catalysts for hydrogen evolution and oxygen reduction reaction(HER/ORR).Ligand exchange strategy was used to prepare molecule@support hybrids due to the same functional group.A series of hybrids were obtained using Co porphyrin(1)and different MOFs including MIL-88(Fe),MOF-5(NiCo)and UIO-66(Zr).The1@MOF-5(NiCo)had the best HER and ORR activity compared with 1@MIL-88(Fe)and 1@MOF-5(NiCo).These hybrids also exhibited tunable selectivity for ORR with four-electron process,which can be attributed to the synergistic effect of porphyrin molecules and MOFs.This work provides a possibility for molecular catalysts to improve activity of HER and tune selectivity of ORR.

文摘Preparing multifunctional coatings with both anti-corrosion and anti-biofouling properties is crucial.Copper has been in the spotlight as an effective biocide,especially in the recent past concerning its impact on causing environmental hazards.Reducing the amount used and increasing its efficiency have become the focus of researchers.The hybridization of titanium dioxide nanoparticles(NPs)with copper metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)can significantly improve antimicrobial performance due to its photocatalytic properties.Composites(TiO_(2)-Cu-BTC)of titanium dioxide nanoparticles and copper 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate acid(Cu-BTC),obtained by three up-sampling methods,namely hydrothermal,mechanical stirring,and in-situ growth,were doped into epoxy resin(TiO_(2)-Cu-BTC/EP)to enhance its anticorrosion and antifouling properties.The loaded forms were determined by field emission scanning electron microscopy and confirmed using Fourier infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy.The lethality of the composite coating against Escherichia coli(E.coli)increased by 12%after 3 h of exposure to light,and the impedance value increased by 1×1010Ω.The efficiency of the coating was greatly improved.

文摘Cancer is one of the most complex diseases and the second leading cause of mortality worldwide.Due to its poor prognosis and challenges in diagnosis,eradicating cancer remains highly difficult.The limitations associated with conventional therapies have led to the emergence of copious therapeutic strategies such as chemotherapy,phototherapy,starvation therapy,radiotherapy and immunotherapy;however,limited therapeutic efficacy,poor tumor cell selectivity and substantial adverse effects remain significant concern.Attributed to the expeditious advancement of nanotechnology,the amalgamation of nanomaterials with therapeutic approaches provides an opportunity to address the shortcomings of conventional chemotherapy.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),which consist of bridging ligands and ions/clusters connected by coordination bonds,have been widely used in cancer therapy to address the limitations of currently therapeutic interventions,such as poor efficacy,low stability and severe side effects.This potential arises from their tuneable porosities,high specific surface area-to-volume ratio,tailorable diameters,tractable morphologies,variegated compositions,biocompatibility and facile functionalization.We summarized the role of MOF-based nanoplatforms along with mechanistic insights into emerging avenues-such as cuproptosis,ferroptosis,cell-penetrating and biomimetic MOFs,and tumor microenvironment-responsive MOFs-alongside recent advancements in mono-and multifunctional cancer therapeutics.Theragnostic and imaging functionalities,as well as regulatory considerations and future prospects of MOF-based nanoplatforms utilized in cancer treatment,are also discussed.

文摘Metal–organic frameworks(MOFs)represent a unique class of porous materialswith tremendous potential for diverse applications.A key factor contributing totheir versatility is their ability to precisely introduce functional groups at specificpositions within pores and crystals.This review explores two prominent strategiesfor achieving the positional functionalization of MOFs:post-synthetic ligand exchange(PSE)and MOF-on-MOF.In PSE,the existing ligands within solid-stateMOFs can be selectively replaced by the desired functional groups in solutionthrough ligand dynamics.This invasive functionalization provides a flexibleapproach to fine-tuning the surface of the MOFs with the target functionality.Conversely,MOF-on-MOF strategies are additive methodologies involving thecontrolled growth of one MOF layer onto another.The functionality of the core andshell(or surface)can be independently controlled.This review critically examinesthe examples,strengths,limitations,and applications of these strategies,emphasizingtheir significance in advancing the field of MOF functionalization andpaving the way for tailored multifunctional materials with precise and specificproperties.
