TLDR
Doping ZIF-8 by Co(II) enhances the photodegradation of methylene blue dye under visible light irradiation in the absence of hydrogen peroxide, and using RDF, the formation of a solid-solution ZIF via the incorporation of Co( II) and Zn(II).Abstract:
A facile method to produce zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-8, ZIF-67, and solid–solution ZIFs (mixed Co and Zn)) is reported. ZIF crystals are produced via a reaction–diffusion framework (RDF) by diffusing an outer solution at a relatively high concentration of the 2-methyl imidazole linker (HmIm) into an agar gel matrix containing the metal ions (zinc(II) and/or cobalt(II)) at room temperature. Accordingly, a propagating supersaturation wave, initiated at the interface between the outer solution and the gel matrix, leads to a precipitation front with a gradient of crystal sizes ranging between 100 nm and 55 μm along the reaction tube. While the precipitation fronts of ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 travel the same distance for the same initial conditions, ZIF-8 crystals therein are consistently smaller than the ZIF-67 crystals due to the disparity of their rate of nucleation and growth. The effects of the temperature, the concentration of the reagents, and the thickness of the gel matrix on the growth of the ZIF ...read more

A Metal-Organic Framework Host for Highly Reversible Dendrite-free Zinc Metal Anodes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that MOF ZIF-8 annealed at 500°C (ZIF8-500) can be used as a host material for high efficiency and dendrite-free Zn plating and stripping because of its porous structure, trace amount of zinc in the framework, and high over-potential for hydrogen evolution.
