A hydrophobic–superoleophilic 2D Zr-based alkyne-rich metal–organic framework for oil/water separation and solar-assisted oil evaporation

Abstract

A 2D layered Zr-based met-al-organic framework (MOF), ZrL1, was assembled from Zr(IV) ions and backfolded alkyne-rich dicarboxylate linker (L12−). Structurally robust and chemically stable ZrL1 was dip-coated on polyurethane (PU)...
