Application of Metal-Organic Frameworks in Chromatographic Separation

Design of a novel Ag-MOF@GO composite with a high specific surface area and structural stability for the efficient removal of malachite green

“…Because of their excellent characteristics, MOFs have promising application prospects in adsorption, storage, luminescence, and catalysis. [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] At present, using MOF materials for the adsorption of pollutants in wastewater is one of the hot research directions. [21][22][23][24][25][26] They can treat a variety of organic dyes, such as methyl blue, rhodamine B, and methyl orange, with a good adsorption effect.…”

Quantum Sieving Effects of Ni(bdc)(ted)0.5 and Effective Separation Performance of Ni(bdc)(ted)0.5@γ‐Al2O3 for H2/D2

“…[29] All these pioneer works [9,12,30] demonstrate the high potential of MOFs in separation of H 2 /D 2 isotopes and inspire us to conduct further deep and wide investigation using MOFs given their great advantage in easy tuning the pore size, structure, components and son on for more effective H 2 /D 2 separation. Meantime, due to the high cost and poor mechanical strength of MOFs, and the difficulty in controlling the particle size in the preparation process, [31,32] it's necessary to load MOFs onto the carrier material with uniform particle size and high stability. The preparation of MOFs@carrier composite is not only beneficial to the filling of chromatographic fillers, greatly reducing the amount of MOFs and the cost of packing, but also can enhance the mechanical strength of MOFs materials.…”

Metal-organic framework DUT-67 (Zr) for adsorptive removal of trace Hg2+ and CH3Hg+ in water

“…The network topology, shape and pore size of the material can be controlled by selecting different metal ions and organic ligands to achieve specific applications. Because of the advantages proposed above, MOFs are widely used in gas storage [21], adsorption [22], separation [23,24], catalysis [25] and fluorescence sensing [26]. In recent years, the research on the removal and adsorption of heavy metal pollutants from aqueous environment by MOFs is attracting attentions [27][28][29][30].…”
