Popis: | Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) possess tremendous potential in various adsorption and catalysis areas for their particular structures. However, the dispersibility and acid stability of ZIFs are important issues hindering their applications. To address these challenges, a transparent polydimethysiloxane (PDMS) coating was constructed to heterogeneously anchor the Cu doped ZIF-67 (Cu/ZIF-67) nanoparticles on melamine sponge surface, achieving a PDMS-coated ZIF three-dimensional composite sponge. Thus PDMS coating could also effectively protect ZIFs from acid damage to prolong the service life of photocatalyticity. It was demonstrated that the composite sponges were able to repeatedly (over 40 cycles) degrade Sudan I dyes with remarkable photocatalytic efficiency (>97%). More importantly, the ion impenetrability of PDMS coating made the ZIFs based composite a longer term catalytic life than unprotected Cu/ZIF-67 under acid condition. Incidentally, due to the introduction of rough ZIFs and hydrophobic PDMS coating, the obtained sponge also exhibits super-hydrophobicity (158.5°), great compressibility and excellent oil/acid water separation performance. We expect that such a polymer coating strategy could act as a novel inspiration for extending the applications and life span of ZIF-based composites. |
