“…MOFs have attracted attention in both academia and industry due to interesting characteristics and unique features such as a high surface area with tunable porosity and physiochemical properties, the presence of unsaturated metallic sites [ 2 ], and the ability to incorporate specific active species without noticeable change or damage to the framework topology [ 3 ]. Due to these interesting features, the potential use of MOFs has been investigated in a wide range of applications such as photocatalysis [ 4 ], environmental remediation [ 5 ], water treatment [ 6 ], and energy storage [ 7 ].…”

Integrated metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with graphene oxide (GO) have aroused huge interest in recent years due to their unique properties and excellent performance compared to MOFs or GO alone. While a lot of attention has been focused on the synthesis methodologies and the performance analysis of the composite materials in recent years, the fundamental formation/crystallization mechanism(s) is (are) still not fully understood. Ascribed to the distinctive structural and functional properties of GO, the nucleation and crystallization process of MOFs could be altered/promoted, forming MOF/GO composite materials with different nanostructures. Furthermore, the MOF’s parental structure could also influence how the GO and MOF bond together. Thus, this short review attempted to provide critical and indepth discussions of recent research results with a particular focus on the factors that influence the directional growth of parent MOFs in the presence of graphene oxide. Due to the unique structure and enhanced properties, the derived MOF/GO composites have a wide range of applications including gas separation, electrochemistry, and photocatalysis. We hope this review will be of interest to researchers working on MOF design, crystal structure control (e.g., orientation), and composite materials development.

“…More recently, MOFs have been attractive for ORR applications [38][39][40] where the use of metal ions or clusters and organic connectors can aid the development of advanced catalysts. The porous structure of MOF electrocatalysts facilitates mass transfer in electrochemical reactions, and as a result of the uniform distribution of metal throughout the MOF precursors, the active sites of the catalyst are efficiently utilized [41][42][43][44].…”

Rationalizing Structural Hierarchy in the Design of Fuel Cell Electrode and Electrolyte Materials Derived from Metal-Organic Frameworks

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are arguably a class of highly tuneable polymer-based materials with wide applicability. The arrangement of chemical components and the bonds they form through specific chemical bond associations are critical determining factors in their functionality. In particular, crystalline porous materials continue to inspire their development and advancement towards sustainable and renewable materials for clean energy conversion and storage. An important area of development is the application of MOFs in proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) and are attractive for efficient low-temperature energy conversion. The practical implementation of fuel cells, however, is faced by performance challenges. To address some of the technical issues, a more critical consideration of key problems is now driving a conceptualised approach to advance the application of PEMFCs. Central to this idea is the emerging field MOF-based systems, which are currently being adopted and proving to be a more efficient and durable means of creating electrodes and electrolytes for proton−exchange membrane fuel cells. This review proposes to discuss some of the key advancements in the modification of PEMs and electrodes, which primarily use functionally important MOFs. Further, we propose to correlate MOF-based PEMFC design and the deeper correlation with performance by comparing proton conductivities and catalytic activities for selected works.

“…[14] Further, MOF derived nanomaterials containing redoxactive metals, and light-sensitive ligands, were prepared and described more recently as photocatalysts for different applications, mainly due to their advanced functionalities, enhanced stability, desired morphologies, and interesting textural properties. [15] Techno-economic studies suggest that these materials, with the right choice of framework units and substituents, could significantly reduce the cost of CO 2 capture, making CCS practical. The electron-deficient carbon atom in the CO 2 molecule drives the researchers to decorate the structure of MOFs with protic electronegative groups, like amines for instance, because the nucleophilic attack generates amides and keeps the carbon dioxide bonded to the network.…”

Selective CO₂ Adsorption at Low Pressure in Nitrogen‐Rich Copper(II) Coordination Polymers

Herein, a series of polymeric copper(II) complexes were obtained using four different triazoles: 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (HL1), 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole (HL2), 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole-5carboxylic acid (H 2 L3) and 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxylic acid (H 2 L4); through solvothermal conditions, under controlled pressure and high temperature, following usual procedures described in the literature. These triazoles were chosen to exploit their different coordination modes to copper(II) metal centres to obtain interesting structures and varied gas adsorption selectivity. The isolated materials were characterized by common spectroscopic techniques (IR, diffuse reflectance UV-Vis, EPR), CHN analyses, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analyses, and SQUID magnetometry to give an insight into their structure and composition. Besides, they had their BET surface area determined by nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, to assess their porosity. At last, their capacity to adsorb carbon dioxide selectively was also evaluated, in line with those reported for similar systems in the literature. Although having small surface area, these compounds are able to adsorb CO 2 selectively at very low pressure (under 600 mbar).
