MOF-聚合物混合基质膜的制备、改性及其在渗透汽化中的应用

渗透汽化是一种具有能耗低、操作简便等优点的膜分离技术,目前传统聚合物渗透汽化膜在分离性能和稳定性等方面还有欠缺。金属有机框架(MOF)是由金属离子与有机配体以自组装形式组建而成的晶态多孔材料,具有独特的性质,如对目标分子的选择性吸附和分子筛分效应,近年来许多研究表明将MOF作为填料引入聚合物基质中构筑混合基质膜(MMMs)对其渗透汽化性能有很好的促进作用。本文从MOF的不同系列出发,讨论了适用于渗透汽化混合基质膜的MOF种类,分析了MOF-聚合物混合基质膜的制备方法与改性策略,综述了该类混合基质膜在渗透汽化方面(有机溶剂脱水、从稀溶液中回收有机物、有机混合物的分离)的应用进展,总结了用于渗透汽化的MOF-聚合物混合基质膜研究面临的挑战,并对其未来发展提出展望。     

金属-有机骨架材料中吸附气体的扩散速率

采用分子动力学方法,以甲烷为探针分子研究了不同压力条件下气体在具有不同孔道结构的金属-有机骨架材料(MOFs)中的扩散速率.通过计算气体在八种材料中的自扩散系数,并结合气体分子在材料中的质心分布图等,讨论了气体扩散速率与孔道结构之间的关系.研究结果表明:对于同时含有孔笼(pocket)和三维正交孔道(channel)结构的MOF材料(P-C材料),低压时甲烷气体吸附在孔笼结构中,随着压力的升高,气体分子开始进入正交孔道,同时其自扩散系数增加;而对于只含有三维立方孔道结构的IRMOF(isoreticular MOF)系列材料,在中低压范围内,气体分子在其中的自扩散系数随压力变化较小.当压力进一步升高时,气体分子在材料孔道中的吸附逐渐接近饱和,其自扩散系数均降低.因此,在不同MOF材料中气体分子扩散速率的差异主要取决于孔道结构的不同.对P-C材料,中低压下通过控制压力可以控制气体在其中的扩散速率,从而为MOF材料在气体存储、分离等方面的实际应用提供参考信息.

Engineering of the Filler/Polymer Interface in Metal–Organic Framework‐Based Mixed‐Matrix Membranes to Enhance Gas Separation

Traditional films cannot fully adapt to industrial applications and to intensified processes. Advanced mixed‐matrix membranes comprising metal–organic frameworks (MOF) embedded in a polymer matrix have been developed with the goal of breaking the trade‐off effect of traditional polymer membranes and achieving separation performance beyond Robeson's upper limit. The key challenges in the fabrication of MOF‐based mixed‐matrix membranes are an enhancement in compatibility between the inorganic filler and the polymer matrix, elimination of the irregular morphology and non‐selective interfacial defects, and further improvement in the gas‐separation performance. This review summarizes the recent advances in protocols and strategies in terms of designing interfacial interactions to enhance the MOF/polymer interface compatibility. This review aims at providing some meaningful insights into preparing MOF‐based mixed‐matrix membranes targeting ideal interfacial morphology and leading to excellent gas‐separation performance.     

Preparation and characterization of ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 incorporated poly(vinylidene fluoride) membranes for pervaporative separation of methanol/water mixtures

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are made up of metal centers and organic binders with larger surface area and distinct pore structures. Particularly significant advancement in MOF membranes has been achieved in three different directions: preparation of MOF membranes with larger surface area, improving the membrane performance by surface modification, and its usage with added features. However, its significance has not been completely known and concluded yet. MOF membranes are used in a variety of membrane-based separation like gas permeation, nanofiltration, pervaporation, membrane distillation, etc. This research aims to synthesize MOFs (ZIF-8 and ZIF-67) and MOF membranes (ZIF-8/PVDF and ZIF-67/PVDF) and used them in the pervaporative separation of the methanol/water mixture. MOFs and MOF membranes were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetry analysis. Methanol/water mixtures were be used to study the performance of the prepared membranes. A study on the process parameters such as temperature (40, 45, 50, and 55°C), feed pressure (4, 8, 12, and 16 psi), and feed composition (10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% of water) was carried out to examine the effect of each process parameters for pure membrane. In contrast, Taguchi screening design was used to screen the most influential process variable. The optimized conditions based on Taguchi screening method were 55°C, 12 psi, and 40 %vol of water in feed. The obtained total flux of 425 L/m²h was observed for M3 membrane. As feed temperature increased, the total flux of all three membranes was increased.     

Step-by-step seeding procedure for preparing HKUST-1 membrane on porous α-alumina support

Metal-organic framework (MOF) membranes have attracted considerable attention because of their striking advantages in small-molecule separation. The preparation of an integrated MOF membrane is still a major challenge. Depositing a uniform seed layer on a support for secondary growth is a main route to obtaining an integrated MOF membrane. A novel seeding method to prepare HKUST-1 (known as Cu(3)(btc)(2)) membranes on porous α-alumina supports is reported. The in situ production of the seed layer was realized in step-by-step fashion via the coordination of H(3)btc and Cu(2+) on an α-alumina support. The formation process of the seed layer was observed by ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy. An integrated HKUST-1 membrane could be synthesized by the secondary hydrothermal growth on the seeded support. The gas permeation performance of the membrane was evaluated.     

Modular Customization and Regulation of Metal–Organic Frameworks for Efficient Membrane Separations

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are considered ideal membrane candidates for energy-efficient separations. However, the MOF membrane amount to date is only a drop in the bucket compared to the material collections. The fabrication of an arbitrary MOF membrane exhibiting inherent separation capacity of the material remains a long-standing challenge. Herein, we report a MOF modular customization strategy by employing four MOFs with diverse structures and physicochemical properties and achieving innovative defect-free membranes for efficient separation validation. Each membrane fully displays the separation potential according to the MOF pore/channel microenvironment, and consequently, an intriguing H₂/CO₂ separation performance sequence is achieved (separation factor of 1656–5.4, H₂ permeance of 964–2745 gas permeation unit). Taking advantage of this strategy, separation performance can be manipulated by a non-destructive modification separately towards the MOF module. This work establishes a universal full-chain demonstration for membrane fabrication-separation validation-microstructure modification and opens an avenue for exclusive customization of membranes for important separations.     

Metal-organic framework membranes: From synthesis to electrocatalytic applications

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), as an emerging family of porous inorganic-organic crystal materials, exhibit widely applications in gas storage and separation, drug release, sensing, and catalysis, owing to easily adjustable pore sizes, uniformly distributed metal centers, high surface areas, and tunable functionalities. However, MOF crystal powders are usually difficult to be directly applied into specific devices because of their brittleness, insolubility and low compatibility. Therefore, to expand versatile MOF membranes with robustness and operational flexibility is urgent to satisfy practical applications. Although numerous reports have reviewed the synthesis and applications of MOF membranes, relatively few reports the electrocatalytic properties based on MOF membranes. Herein, this mini-review provides an overview of preparation of MOF membranes, including directed synthesis, secondary growth and electrochemical deposition method. Meanwhile, fabrication of ultrathin 2D MOF nanosheets those can be also defined as a kind of nanoscale MOF membranes is also mentioned. Electrocatalytic performance of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and CO₂ reduction reaction (CO₂RR) for diverse MOF membranes/nanosheets and their derivatives are introduced.

Computational Methods for MOF/Polymer Membranes

Metal–organic framework (MOF)/polymer mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) have received significant interest in the last decade. MOFs are incorporated into polymers to make MMMs that exhibit improved gas permeability and selectivity compared with pure polymer membranes. The fundamental challenge in this area is to choose the appropriate MOF/polymer combinations for a gas separation of interest. Even if a single polymer is considered, there are thousands of MOFs that could potentially be used as fillers in MMMs. As a result, there has been a large demand for computational studies that can accurately predict the gas separation performance of MOF/polymer MMMs prior to experiments. We have developed computational approaches to assess gas separation potentials of MOF/polymer MMMs and used them to identify the most promising MOF/polymer pairs. In this Personal Account, we aim to provide a critical overview of current computational methods for modeling MOF/polymer MMMs. We give our perspective on the background, successes, and failures that led to developments in this area and discuss the opportunities and challenges of using computational methods for MOF/polymer MMMs.
