Title: Hierarchical Nanostructures of Metal-Organic Frameworks Applied in Gas Separating ZIF-8-on-ZIF-67 Membranes. Author: Knebel A, Wulfert-Holzmann P, Friebe S, Pavel J, Strauß I, Mundstock A, Steinbach F, Caro J. Journal: Chemistry; 2018 Apr 17; 24(22):5728-5733. PubMed ID: 29393536. Abstract: Membranes from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are highly interesting for industrial gas separation applications. Strongly improved performances for carbon capture and H2 purification tasks in MOF membranes are obtained by using highly reproducable and very accuratly, hierarchically grown ZIF-8-on-ZIF-67 (ZIF-8@ZIF-67) nanostructures. To forgo hardly controllable solvothermal synthesis, particles and layers are prepared by self-assembling methods. It was possible for the first time to confirm ZIF-8-on-ZIF-67 membrane growth on rough and porous ceramic supports using the layer-by-layer deposition. Additionally, hierarchical particles are made in a fast RT synthesis with high monodispersity. Characterization of the hierarchical and epitaxial grown layers and particles is performed by SEM, TEM, EDXM and gas permeation. The system ZIF-8@ZIF-67 shows a nearly doubled H2 /CO2 separation factor, regardless of whether neat membrane or mixed-matrix-membrane in comparison to other MOF materials.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
