Blazing fast MOF magic: carbon nanotubes derived from MOFs for catalysis
摘要
We developed metal–organic framework (MOF) derivatives via rapid thermal processing (RTP) of ZIF-67, achieving synthesis in ∼30 min far faster than conventional pyrolysis. These derivatives retain the morphology of ZIF-67, integrating carbon nanotubes and nickel–cobalt nanoparticles within a porous carbon matrix. With surface areas of ∼ 208–225 m2·g−1, they excel in styrene epoxidation, yielding 80% conversion and 50%–60% selectivity. This efficient RTP method enhances stability and activity, offering a scalable approach to advance MOF-based catalysis.
