Summary: The Nb2O5/Nb2CTx composite, synthesized through hydrothermal oxidation, shows superior photocatalytic activity in degrading Rhodamine B and tetracycline hydrochloride under visible light irradiation. The formation of a Schottky junction between Nb2O5 nanorods and Nb2CTx effectively separates photo-generated carriers, enhancing the photocatalytic performance.

Summary: The use of V-shaped linker molecules, H2ODB and H2CDB, resulted in the discovery of two isoreticular Ce(IV)-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) denoted CAU-58. The synthesis approach in acetonitrile proved effective in accessing Ce(IV)-MOF structures with infinite rod-shaped inorganic building units. The MOFs exhibited high thermal stabilities and reversible water adsorption, and CAU-58-ODB showed enhanced photocatalytic activity under UV light.

Summary: The use of V-shaped linker molecules led to the discovery of two Ce(IV)-based MOFs synthesized using a novel acetonitrile solvent approach. The structures of the MOFs were determined using 3D ED, PXRD, and DFT calculations. The MOFs exhibited high thermal stability, and their catalytic activity for the degradation of methyl orange was studied, with CAU-58-ODB showing enhanced photocatalytic activity under UV light.

Summary: In this study, a novel electrode material, NiFe-MOF@NiFeTe nanoparticle-rod heterostructures, with high capacity and structural stability, was prepared on a nickel foam substrate using a simple two-step hydrothermal method. The prepared hybrid structure combines the advantages of MOF and metal telluride, resulting in a large specific surface area, high electrical conductivity, and fast redox reaction. The electrode materials showed excellent electrochemical properties, with a specific capacitance of 1245.2 F/g at 5 A/g and a capacitance retention rate of 92.3% after 1000 cycles. The assembled hybrid supercapacitor exhibited an operating voltage of 1.7 V, an energy density of 267.1 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 1699.9 W kg-1, and a capacitance retention rate of 82.9% after 5000 cycles at a high current density of 10 A/g. This study provides a feasible strategy for the development of efficient and stable hybrid supercapacitor electrode materials.

Summary: Due to increasing demand and implementation in industrial applications, alternative methods for sustainable and green synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are highly important. The use of waste-derived resources as precursors for MOFs, such as PET waste bottles for organic ligands and electronic solid materials for metallic ions, offers benefits in terms of cost and environmental impact. This review focuses on the synthesis of MOFs from recyclable waste, highlighting the advantages and comparing them with MOFs prepared from commercial precursors.
