It is a great challenge to trapping novel Bi2WO6/MIL-53(Al) (BWO/MIL) nanocomposites with excellence catalytic activity by the trial-and-error method in vast untapped synthetic space. The degradation rate of dyes Rhodamine...

A postsynthetic modification method was used to prepare thiol-functionalized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) by the amidation of mercaptoacetic acid with the amine group, which is present in the frameworks of NH2-MIL-53(Al). By doing this, the thiol group has been successfully grafted on the MOF, which perfectly combined the highly developed pore structures of the MOF with the strong coordinati...

Abstract We investigated the stable isotope fractionation of chromium (Cr) for a panorama chondrites, including EH and EL enstatite chondrites their chondrules different phases (by acid leaching). observed that have heterogeneous δ 53 Cr values (per mil deviation Cr/ 52 from NIST SRM 979 standard), which we suggest reflect physical conditions in chondrite accretion regions. Chondrules primitive...

Functionalizing the well-known MIL-53(Al) metal-organic framework with amino groups increases its selectivity in CO(2)/CH(4) separations by orders of magnitude while maintaining a very high capacity for CO(2) capture.

FTIR spectra of (12)CO2 and (12)CO2 + (13)CO2 mixtures adsorbed on MIL-53(Al) reveal the formation of highly symmetric dimeric (CO2)2 species connected to two structural OH groups.

Cu3(BTC)2 is an efficient and reusable heterogeneous catalyst for the dehydrogenative coupling of silanes with alcohols. Activity data and CO adsorption suggest that Cu(II) and in situ generated Cu(I) are the active species. Other MOFs such as Fe(BTC), MIL-101(Cr) and UiO-66(Zr) are unable to promote this cross-coupling.

The functionalised metal-organic framework MIL-101(Cr)-NH(2), containing 2-aminobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate as the linker, has been synthesised. A new tandem post-synthetic modification strategy involving diazotisation as the first step has been developed and used to introduce halo- and azo dye-functional groups into the pores.

Gas adsorption in pores of flexible metal-organic frameworks (MOF) induces elastic deformation and structural transitions associated with stepwise expansion and contraction of the material, known as breathing transitions between large pore (lp) and narrow pore (np) phases. We present here a simple yet instructive model for the physical mechanism of this enigmatic phenomenon considering the adso...

Metal-organic heat carriers (MOHCs) are recently developed nanofluids containing metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticles dispersed in various base fluids including refrigerants (R245Fa) and methanol. Here, we report the synthesis and characterization of MOHCs containing nanoMIL-101(Cr) and graphene oxide (GO) in an effort to improve the thermo-physical properties of various base fluids. MOH...
