Rational Construction of a Responsive Azo-Functionalized Porous Organic Framework for CO₂ Sorption.

ABSTRACT: An azo-functionalized porous organic framework (denoted as JJU-1) was synthesized via FeCl₃-promoted oxidative coupling polymerization. By virtue of a porous skeleton and a light/heat responsive azo functional group, this task-specific JJU-1 displays a reversible stimuli-responsive adsorption property triggered by UV irradiation and heat treatment. The initial Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) surface area of this porous material is 467 m² g^-1. The CO₂ sorption isotherms exhibit a slight decrease after UV irradiation because of the trans to cis conversion of the azo functional skeleton. It is worth mentioning that the responsive CO₂ adsorption performance can be recycled for three cycles via alternating external stimuli, confirming the excellently reversible switchability of trans-to-cis isomerization and controllable CO₂ adsorption.

Rational design of a robust aluminum metal-organic framework for multi-purpose water-sorption-driven heat allocations.

Project description:Adsorption-driven heat transfer technology using water as working fluid is a promising eco-friendly strategy to address the exponential increase of global energy demands for cooling and heating purposes. Here we present the water sorption properties of a porous aluminum carboxylate metal-organic framework, [Al(OH)(C6H3NO4)]·nH2O, KMF-1, discovered by a joint computational predictive and experimental approaches, which exhibits step-like sorption isotherms, record volumetric working capacity (0.36 mL mL-1) and specific energy capacity (263 kWh m-3) under cooling working conditions, very high coefficient of performances of 0.75 (cooling) and 1.74 (heating) together with low driving temperature below 70 °C which allows the exploitation of solar heat, high cycling stability and remarkable heat storage capacity (348 kWh m-3). This level of performances makes this porous material as a unique and ideal multi-purpose water adsorbent to tackle the challenges of thermal energy storage and its further efficient exploitation for both cooling and heating applications.

Encapsulation of a Porous Organic Cage into the Pores of a Metal-Organic Framework for Enhanced CO2 Separation.

Project description:We present a facile approach to encapsulate functional porous organic cages (POCs) into a robust MOF by an incipient-wetness impregnation method. Porous cucurbit[6]uril (CB6) cages with high CO2 affinity were successfully encapsulated into the nanospace of Cr-based MIL-101 while retaining the crystal framework, morphology, and high stability of MIL-101. The encapsulated CB6 amount is controllable. Importantly, as the CB6 molecule with intrinsic micropores is smaller than the inner mesopores of MIL-101, more affinity sites for CO2 are created in the resulting CB6@MIL-101 composites, leading to enhanced CO2 uptake capacity and CO2 /N2 , CO2 /CH4 separation performance at low pressures. This POC@MOF encapsulation strategy provides a facile route to introduce functional POCs into stable MOFs for various potential applications.

Rational Design of Porous Covalent Triazine-Based Framework Composites as Advanced Organic Lithium-Ion Battery Cathodes.

Project description:In an effort to explore the use of organic high-performance lithium ion battery cathodes as an alternative to resolve the current bottleneck hampering the development of their inorganic counterparts, a rational strategy focusing on the optimal composition of covalent triazine-based frameworks (CTFs) with carbon-based materials of varied dimensionalities is delineated. Two-dimensional reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with a compatible structural conformation with the layered CTF is the most suitable scaffold for the tailored mesopores in the polymeric framework, providing outstanding energy storage ability. Through facile ionothermal synthesis and structure engineering, the obtained CTF-rGO composite possesses a high specific surface area of 1357.27 m²/g, and when used as a lithium ion battery cathode it delivers a large capacity of 235 mAh/g in 80 cycles at 0.1 A/g along with a stable capacity of 127 mAh/g over 2500 cycles at 5 A/g. The composite with modified pore structure shows drastically improved performance compared to a pristine CTF, especially at large discharge currents. The CTF-rGO composite with excellent capacity, stability, and rate performance shows great promise as an emerging high-performance cathode that could revolutionize the conventional lithium-ion battery industry.

Structural dynamics of a metal-organic framework induced by CO2 migration in its non-uniform porous structure.

Project description:Stimuli-responsive behaviors of flexible metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) make these materials promising in a wide variety of applications such as gas separation, drug delivery, and molecular sensing. Considerable efforts have been made over the last decade to understand the structural changes of flexible MOFs in response to external stimuli. Uniform pore deformation has been used as the general description. However, recent advances in synthesizing MOFs with non-uniform porous structures, i.e. with multiple types of pores which vary in size, shape, and environment, challenge the adequacy of this description. Here, we demonstrate that the CO2-adsorption-stimulated structural change of a flexible MOF, ZIF-7, is induced by CO2 migration in its non-uniform porous structure rather than by the proactive opening of one type of its guest-hosting pores. Structural dynamics induced by guest migration in non-uniform porous structures is rare among the enormous number of MOFs discovered and detailed characterization is very limited in the literature. The concept presented in this work provides new insights into MOF flexibility.

Amides Do Not Always Work: Observation of Guest Binding in an Amide-Functionalized Porous Metal-Organic Framework.

Project description:An amide-functionalized metal organic framework (MOF) material, MFM-136, shows a high CO2 uptake of 12.6 mmol g-1 at 20 bar and 298 K. MFM-136 is the first example of an acylamide pyrimidyl isophthalate MOF without open metal sites and, thus, provides a unique platform to study guest binding, particularly the role of free amides. Neutron diffraction reveals that, surprisingly, there is no direct binding between the adsorbed CO2/CH4 molecules and the pendant amide group in the pore. This observation has been confirmed unambiguously by inelastic neutron spectroscopy. This suggests that introduction of functional groups solely may not necessarily induce specific guest-host binding in porous materials, but it is a combination of pore size, geometry, and functional group that leads to enhanced gas adsorption properties.

CO2-Selective Nanoporous Metal-Organic Framework Microcantilevers.

Project description:Nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) microcantilevers are fabricated and MIL-53 (Al) metal-organic framework (MOF) layers are directly synthesized on each cantilever surface by using the aluminum oxide as the metal ion source. Exposure of the MIL53-AAO cantilevers to various concentrations of CO2, N2, CO, and Ar induces changes in their deflections and resonance frequencies. The results of the resonance frequency measurements for the different adsorbed gas molecules are almost identical when the frequency changes are normalized by the molecular weights of the gases. In contrast, the deflection measurements show that only CO2 adsorption induces substantial bending of the MIL53-AAO cantilevers. This selective deflection of the cantilevers is attributed to the strong interactions between CO2 and the hydroxyl groups in MIL-53, which induce structural changes in the MIL-53 layers. Simultaneous measurements of the resonance frequency and the deflection are performed to show that the diffusion of CO2 into the nanoporous MIL-53 layers occurs very rapidly, whereas the binding of CO2 to hydroxyl groups occurs relatively slowly, which indicates that the adsorption of CO2 onto the MIL-53 layers and the desorption of CO2 from the MIL-53 layers are reaction limited.

Ionic Porous Organic Polymers Based on Functionalized Tetraarylborates.

Project description:Lithium tetrakis(4-boronatoaryl)borates were subjected to polycondensation reactions with selected polyhydroxyl monomers such as 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene (HHTP) and 2,3,6,7-tetrahydroxy-9,10-dimethylanthracene (THDMA). Obtained boronate-type ionic porous polymers TAB1-4 were characterized by PXRD, 6Li and 11B magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR), FT-IR, SEM, and TGA. They exhibit relatively good sorption of H2 (up to 75 cm3/g STP), whereas N2 uptake at 77 K for lower pressure range is relatively poor (up to 50 cm3/g STP below P/P0 = 0.8). In addition, the effect of elongation of aryl arms in the tetraarylborate core on the materials' properties was studied. Thus, it was found that replacement of the 4-boronatophenyl with 4-boronatobiphenylyl group has a negative impact on the sorption characteristics.

Highly Efficient Organic Dyes Capture Using Thiol-Functionalized Porous Organic Polymer.

Project description:It is of great significance to develop new materials for efficient capture cationic dyes methylene blue (MB) and malachite green (MG). In this work, a novel triptycene-based porous organic polymer with abundant thiol groups (TPP-SH) was prepared successfully by postmodification with a high surface area and robust triptycene-based porous organic polymer (TPP). The obtained TPP-SH exhibited a high surface area, good porosity, and good thermal stability. In addition, TPP-SH was highly effective at capturing MB and MG from aqueous solution because of the abundant thiols in its hierarchical structure. Under optimal adsorption conditions, the maximum adsorption capacities of MB and MG calculated by the Langmuir model at room temperature were 1146.3 and 689.6 mg g-1, respectively. These values are higher than those of many reported materials. The MB and MG adsorption rates were 0.0154 and 6.69 × 10-4 mg g-1 min-1, respectively. Furthermore, the polymer TPP-SH had a good recycling performance after adsorption-desorption at least five times. Therefore, the TPP-SH exhibited a high adsorption capacity, fast adsorption kinetics, and easy-recycling behavior, providing a new avenue for the preparation of green functionalized adsorbents with good performance for water decontamination.

Synthesis and Formation Mechanism of Limestone-Derived Porous Rod Hierarchical Ca-based Metal-Organic Framework for Efficient CO2 Capture.

Project description:Limestone is a relatively abundant and low-cost material used for producing calcium oxide as a CO2 adsorbent. However, the CO2 capture capacity of limestone decreases rapidly after multiple carbonation/calcination cycles. To improve the CO2 capture performance, we developed a process using limestone to transform the material into a rod Ca-based metal-organic framework (Ca-MOF) via a hydrothermal process with the assistance of acetic acid and terephthalic acid (H2BDC). The structural formation of rod Ca-MOF may result from the (200) face-oriented attachment growth of Ca-MOF sheets. Upon heat treatment, a highly stable porous rod network with a calcined Ca-MOF-O structure was generated with a pore distribution of 50-100 nm, which allowed the rapid diffusion of CO2 into the interior of the sorbent and enhanced the CO2 capture capacity with high multiple carbonation-calcination cycle stability compared to limestone alone at the intermediate temperature of 450 °C. The CO2 capture capacity of the calcined porous Ca-MOF-O network reached 52 wt% with a CO2 capture stability of 80% after 10 cycles. The above results demonstrated that rod Ca-MOF can be synthesized from a limestone precursor to form a porous network structure as a CO2 capture sorbent to improve CO2 capture performance at an intermediate temperature, thus suggesting its potential in environmental applications.

Graphene inclusion controlling conductivity and gas sorption of metal-organic framework.

Project description:A general approach to prepare composite films of metal-organic frameworks and graphene has been developed. Films of copper(ii)-based HKUST-1 and HKUST-1/graphene composites were grown solvothermally on glassy carbon electrodes. The films were chemically tethered to the substrate by diazonium electrografting resulting in a large electrode coverage and good stability in solution for electrochemical studies. HKUST-1 has poor electrical conductivity, but we demonstrate that the addition of graphene to HKUST-1 partially restores the electrochemical activity of the electrodes. The enhanced activity, however, does not result in copper(ii) to copper(i) reduction in HKUST-1 at negative potentials. The materials were characterised in-depth: microscopy and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction demonstrate uniform films of crystalline HKUST-1, and Raman spectroscopy reveals that graphene is homogeneously distributed in the films. Gas sorption studies show that both HKUST-1 and HKUST-1/graphene have a large CO2/N2 selectivity, but the composite has a lower surface area and CO2 adsorption capacity in comparison with HKUST-1, while CO2 binds stronger to the composite at low pressures. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy reveals that both monomeric and dimeric copper units are present in the materials, and that the two materials behave differently upon hydration, i.e. HKUST-1/graphene reacts slower by interaction with water. The changed gas/vapour sorption properties and the improved electrochemical activity are two independent consequences of combining graphene with HKUST-1.
