Mg-MOF-74 crystals were successfully prepared in 1 h by a sonochemical method (Mg-MOF-74(S)) after triethylamine (TEA) was added as a deprotonating agent. Mg-MOF-74(S) (1640 m 2 g À1 BET surface area) displayed similar textural properties to those of a high-quality MOF sample synthesized in 24 h by the solvothermal method (Mg-MOF-74(C), 1525 m 2 g À1 ). However, mesopores were formed, probably due to the competitive binding of TEA to Mg 2+ ions, and the average particle size of the former (ca. 0.6 mm) was significantly smaller than that of the latter (ca. 14 mm). The H 2 O adsorption capacity was 593 mL g À1 at 298 K for Mg-MOF-74(S), displaying higher hydrophilicity than Zeolite 13X. The adsorption isotherms of Mg-MOF-74(S) for CO 2 showed high adsorption capacity (350 mg g À1 at 298 K) and high isosteric heats of adsorption for CO 2 (42 to 22 kJ mol À1 ). The breakthrough experiment confirmed excellent selectivity to CO 2 over N 2 at ambient conditions (saturation capacity of ca. 179 mg g À1 ). Ten consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles at 298 K established no deterioration of the adsorption capacity, which showed reversible adsorbent regeneration at 323 K under helium flow for a total duration of 1400 min. Mg-MOF-74(S) also demonstrated excellent catalytic performance in cycloaddition of CO 2 to styrene oxide under relatively mild reaction conditions (2.0 MPa, 373 K) with close to 100% selectivity to carbonate, which was confirmed by GC-MS, 1 H-NMR, and FT-IR. Mg-MOF-74(S) could be reused 3 times without losing catalytic activity and with no structural deterioration.

CuBTC (Copper(II) benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate) is one of the most well characterized and widely studied metal organic framework (MOF) structures for potential use in industrial applications due to its relatively easy synthesis and excellent textural and physicochemical properties. In this comprehensive review, a different perspective on MOF materials for future sustainability is presented by critically examining the recent works that have considered the synthesis and adsorption/catalytic applications of CuBTC as a model case.

This study has the purpose to evaluate the effects of cooperative learning applying Jigsaw model in simulation based infection control education by comparing perception of infection control, intrinsic motive and learning satisfaction, 54 first-year health related students. It is composed of 27 students of the experimental group and 27 students of the control group. In order to evaluate the homogeneity between the two groups, it surveyed in advance perception of infection control, intrinsic motive and learning satisfaction. There was no significant difference between the two groups, The education program composed cooperative learning applying Jigsaw Model, simulation practice and debriefing to the experimental group was performed twice for 2 weeks and lecture and skill training, simulation practice and debriefing were performed to the control group. After two-week education, perception of infection control, intrinsic motive and learning satisfaction of the participants the research were surveyed. As a result of this study, the Jigsow Model indicated the perception of infection control and learning satisfaction experimental group was significantly high in statistic. Based on this research result, I suggests that utilization of cooperative learning applying the Jigsaw Model as a strategy to improve the scholatic achievement and learning satisfaction of students in the variable simulation based education
