Facile synthesis of multifunctional zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 coatings on diverse bare substrates using a one-step strategy
Rational growth of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with controllable morphology and surface properties has been challenging. In this study, facile synthesis of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) in solutions as well as direct in-situ growth of ZIF-8 on various untreated substrates was studied systematically. ZIF crystals with controllable morphology and size were prepared by simply adjusting the ethanol content in the co-solvent system, achieving a rational synthesis of ZIFs in controlled environments. More importantly, co-solvent content was proved to be crucial in the inter-dimensional topotactic phase transformation from a 2-dimensional ZIF-L to a three-dimensional ZIF-8. Then, the facile in-situ crystallization of ZIF-8 on a variety of untreated substrates was studied. With the use of co-solvents, ZIF-8 crystals were formed uniformly and continuously on all substrates regardless of the nature of the support material, including organic supports such as nylon membranes, 3D printed meshes, melamine sponges, mask filter layers, fabric, metallic support stainless-steel meshes, and ceramic pellet. This facile coating strategy provided controllable crystal coating morphology, size, and coating density, without surface modification/pre-treatment steps which are commonly used in the synthesis of high-quality ZIF coatings/membranes. The ZIF-8 coated substrates prepared in a co-solvent system displayed superior performance in some environmental remediation and biomedical applications. For example, the ZIF-8-coated nylon membrane achieved an impressive 96 ∼ 98 % small oil droplet removal from emulsions while maintaining a high water flux of ∼ 1200 L m−2h−1 bar−1. The superhydrophobic ZIF-8-coated melamine sponges were effective for fast oil adsorption. Last but not least, the ZIF-8-coated masks demonstrated greatly improved antibacterial activities. Overall, the co-solvent synthesis method reported in this work has enabled a one-step universal strategy for the direct growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework coating on diverse bare substrates with controlled surface properties and thus showed significant commercial potential in environmental and biological applications.
期刊介绍:
Separation and Purification Technology is a premier journal committed to sharing innovative methods for separation and purification in chemical and environmental engineering, encompassing both homogeneous solutions and heterogeneous mixtures. Our scope includes the separation and/or purification of liquids, vapors, and gases, as well as carbon capture and separation techniques. However, it's important to note that methods solely intended for analytical purposes are not within the scope of the journal. Additionally, disciplines such as soil science, polymer science, and metallurgy fall outside the purview of Separation and Purification Technology. Join us in advancing the field of separation and purification methods for sustainable solutions in chemical and environmental engineering.
