Multidimensional MOF-derived carbon nanomaterials for multifunctional applications

Abstract

Currently, porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have become popular precursors for the construction of new nanomaterials as a result of their large surface area, high porosity, and excellent chemical, mechanical and...

Application of MOF-derived materials as electrocatalysts for CO2 conversion

“…At the same time, the direct calcination of MOFs overcomes the disadvantage that porous carbon materials usually require a large number of complex synthesis steps. [30][31][32] Therefore, MOFs are often used as ideal precursors for the preparation of porous carbon materials. The typical synthesis method is carbonization under proper atmosphere (mainly N 2 and Ar) at a specific temperature, followed by simple acid treatment or evaporation of metal atoms at high temperature to obtain the MOF-derived materials.…”

2-Methylimidazole-modulated 2D Cu metal–organic framework for 5-hydroxymethylfurfural hydrodeoxygenation

“…Metal–organic framework (MOF) materials, self-assembled from metal centers and organic ligands, which have the advantages of large specific surface area and adjustable physical and chemical properties, are widely used in catalysis, gas adsorption and other fields. 38–43 In recent years, compared with bulk MOF materials, 2D MOF nanosheets have been more conducive for mass transfer and expose more catalytically active sites, which have attracted more attention from researchers. 44–46 At present, there are two main ways to prepare 2D MOF nanosheets.…”

Progress on the luminescence mechanism and application of carbon quantum dots based on biomass synthesis

“…[4][5][6][7][8] Their great potential to be used in a wide range of applications has greatly stimulated the interest of researchers and scholars and driven them to actively engage in the research of C-based nanomaterials. [9][10][11] In the past few years, C-nanoparticles and semiconductor materials have been successfully used in a variety of applications such as bioimaging, biosensing and medical diagnostics due to their strong, tunable uorescence emission properties. However, these materials have certain limitations, such as the use of many toxic reagents, such as pyridine, 12 pyrrole, 13 and heavy metal salts, 14 in the preparation of these materials etc.…”
