“…Inert processing environment produces surfaces that are roughened (as observed in the middle column) but lack any distinguishable features, for instance, flaking. Similar surface finishes are commonly observed in sintered materials [17], which can be expected as the processing conditions are similar to those used for sintering ceramics. Likewise, thermogravimetry analysis provides a valuable description on how the coating material behaves after being exposed to temperature and how moisture content in the reaction atmosphere affects this behavior.…”

In order to implement timely sustainability solutions, road transportation is gradually transitioning to electric power. However, the maritime sector faces challenges in finding ways to shift towards more sustainable fuel. From the perspective of long-distance shipping, electric transport is economically impractical. Therefore, alternative solutions or proposals contributing to the global reduction of pollutant gas emissions in maritime transport are vitally important. This investigation aims to find solutions that enhance the ecological efficiency of intercontinental cargo ships. In this study, an assessment of a magnesium hydride coating was conducted as it is a prospective coating capable of reducing hydrodynamic resistance to save fuel. Due to MgH2’s ability to release hydrogen at higher temperatures or during a reaction with water, it is expected that this could contribute to an enhancement of the Leidenfrost effect, maintaining a vapor layer on the surface. Samples prepared in situ via reactive magnetron sputtering were submitted to thermal analysis for dehydrogenation range evaluation and the experimental rig for critical (Leidenfrost) temperature identification. In conclusion, thermogravimetric (TG) analysis indicated that the volatile content, primarily hydrogen, in the sample reached approximately 13% by mass. The TG curve exhibited variations in MgH2 mass, with the most significant mass loss occurring at 300 °C. After conducting critical temperature experiments, the potential of MgO coating was observed to be greater than anticipated when compared to the main material, MgH2.

“…FTIR spectra of the beneficiated Ethiopia kaolin powder, beneficiated and calcined kaolin (metakaolin) powder, and metakaolin-based flat sheet membrane are shown in Figure 4. According to the result presented in Figure 4(a), beneficiated Ethiopia kaolin powder has OH-bending modes at 1,122 cm À1 and OH-stretching modes at 3,619 and 3,688 cm À1 (Khan et al 2017;Mohtor et al 2017;Boussemghoune et al 2020). Moreover, the absorption band at around 1,626 cm À1 was observed in beneficiated Ethiopia kaolin powder due to its deformation vibration of physisorbed water molecules at the surface (Khan et al 2017;Kljajevićet al 2017;Aragaw & Angerasa 2020).…”

Hydrophobic metakaolin-based flat sheet membrane was developed via phase inversion and sintering technique and modified through 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane grafting agents. The prepared membrane was characterized by different techniques such as XRD, FTIR, SEM, contact angle, porosity, and mechanical strength. Their results indicated that the wettability, structural, and mechanical properties of the prepared membrane confirm the suitability of the material for membrane distillation (MD) application. The prepared metakaolin-based flat sheet membrane acquired hydrophobic properties after surface modification with the water contact angle values of 113.2° to 143.3°. Afterward, the membrane performance was tested for different sodium chloride aqueous solutions (synthetic seawater) and various operating parameters (feed temperature, feed flow rate) using direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD). Based on the findings, the prepared membrane at metakaolin loading of 45 wt.% and sintered at 1,300 °C was achieved the best performance with >95% salt rejection and permeate flux of 6.58 ± 0.3 L/m2 · h at feed temperature of 80 °C, feed concentration of 35 g/L, and feed flow rate of 60 L/h. It can be concluded that further optimization of membrane porosity, mechanical, and surface properties is required to maximize the permeate flux and salt rejection.

“…The shaping processes of MOFs into monoliths, granules, or pellets usually utilize polymer-type adhesive agents, as this type of binder is easily mixed with MOFs, inducing non-covalent bonding (i.e., hydrogen bonding); in addition, they are soluble to volatile agents [44]. In general, organic binders are synthesized by polymers with a chain-like structure of various lengths, where polar groups exist [45]. The most widely used polymer-type binders in MOF shaping processes is polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyvinyl butyral (PVB).…”

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) could be utilized for a wide range of applications such as sorption, catalysis, chromatography, energy storage, sensors, drug delivery, and nonlinear optics. However, to date, there are very few examples of MOFs exploited on a commercial scale. Nevertheless, progress in MOF-related research is currently paving the way to new industrial opportunities, fostering applications and processes interconnecting fundamental chemistry with engineering and relevant sectors. Yet, the fabrication of porous MOF materials within resistant structures is a key challenge impeding their wide commercial use for processes such as adsorptive separation. In fact, the integration of nano-scale MOF crystallic structures into bulk components that can maintain the desired characteristics, i.e., size, shape, and mechanical stability, is a prerequisite for their wide practical use in many applications. At the same time, it requires sophisticated shaping techniques that can structure nano/micro-crystalline fine powders of MOFs into diverse types of macroscopic bodies such as monoliths. Under this framework, this review aims to bridge the gap between research advances and industrial necessities for fostering MOF applications into real life. Therefore, it critically explores recent advances in the shaping and production of MOF macro structures with regard to the binding materials that have received little attention to date, but have the potential to give new perspectives in the industrial applicability of MOFs. Moreover, it proposes future paths that can be adopted from both academy and industry and can further boost MOF exploitation.
