Abstract
Wearable sensors hold immense potential for real-time and non-destructive sensing of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), requiring both efficient sensing performance and robust mechanical properties. However, conventional colorimetric sensor arrays, acting as artificial olfactory systems for highly selective VOC profiling, often fail to meet these requirements simultaneously. Here, a high-performance wearable sensor array for VOC visual detection is proposed by extrusion printing of hybrid inks containing surface-functionalized sensing materials. Surface-modified hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) improves the humidity resistance and VOC sensitivity of PDMS-coated dye/metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) composites. It also enhances their dispersion within liquid PDMS matrix, thereby promoting the hybrid liquid as high-quality extrusion-printing inks. The inks enable direct and precise printing on diverse substrates, forming a uniform and high particle-loading (70 wt%) film. The printed film on a flexible PDMS substrate demonstrates satisfactory flexibility and stretchability while retaining excellent sensing performance from dye/MOFs@PDMS particles. Further, the printed sensor array exhibits enhanced sensitivity to sub-ppm VOC levels, remarkable resistance to high relative humidity (RH) of 90%, and the differentiation ability for eight distinct VOCs. Finally, the wearable sensor proves practical by in situ monitoring of wheat scab-related VOC biomarkers. This study presents a versatile strategy for designing effective wearable gas sensors with widespread applications.

Abstract
To address the plasticization phenomenon and MOF-polymer interfacial defects, we report the synthesis of ionic cross-linked MOF MMMs from a dual brominated polymer and MOF components by using N,N'-dimethylpiperazine as the cross-linker. We synthesized brominated MIL-101(Cr) nanoparticles by using mixed linkers and prepared brominated polyimide (6FDA-DAM-Br) to form ionic cross-linked MMMs. The gas permeation properties of the polyimide, ionic cross-linked MOF-polymer MMMs, and non-cross-linked MOF-polymer MMMs with various MOF weight loadings were investigated systematically to effectively understand the effects of MOF weight loading and ionic cross-linking. The ionic cross-linked 40 wt % MOF-polymer MMM exhibited significantly enhanced gas permeability with an H2 permeability of 1640 Barrer and CO2 permeability of 1981 Barrer and slightly decreased H2/CH4, H2/N2, CO2/CH4 and CO2/N2 selectivities of 16.9, 15.4, 20.5, and 18.6, respectively. The H2 and CO2 permeabilities are approximately 2-3 fold higher than those of the pure polyimide (6FDA-DAM) membrane. Moreover, the ionic cross-linked 40 wt % MOF-polymer MMM exhibited significantly increased resistance to plasticization. This is because the brominated MOF incorporation boosted molecular transport and polymer chain rigidity, and ionic cross-linking further reduced the number of interfacial defects and polymer chain mobility.

Abstract
Significant progress has been made in designing advanced membranes; however, persistent challenges remain due to their reduced permeation rates and a propensity for substantial fouling. These factors continue to pose significant barriers to the effective utilization of membranes in the separation of oil-in-water emulsions. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are considered promising materials for such applications; however, they encounter three key challenges when applied to the separation of oil from water: (a) lack of water stability; (b) difficulty in producing defect-free membranes; and (c) unresolved issue of stabilizing the MOF separating layer on the ceramic membrane (CM) support. In this study, a defect-free hydrolytically stable zirconium-based MOF separating layer was formed through a two-step method: first, by in situ growth of UiO-66-NH2 MOF into the voids of polydopamine (PDA)-functionalized CM during the solvothermal process, and then by facilitating the self-assembly of UiO-66-NH2 with PDA using a pressurized dead-end assembly. A stable MOF separating layer was attained by enriching the ceramic support with amines and hydroxyl groups using PDA, which assisted in the assembly and stabilization of UiO-66-NH2. The PDA-s-UiO-66-NH2-CM membrane displayed air superhydrophilicity and underwater superoleophobicity, demonstrating its oil resistance and high antifouling behavior. The PDA-s-UiO-66-NH2-CM membrane has shown exceptionally high permeability and separation capacity for challenging oil-in-water emulsions. This is attributed to numerous nanochannels from the membrane and its high resistance to oil adhesion. The membranes showed excellent stability over 15 continuous test cycles, which indicates that the developed MOFs separating layers have a low tendency to be clogged by oil droplets during separation. Machine learning-based Gaussian process regression (GPR) models as nonparametric kernel-based probabilistic models were employed to predict the performance efficiency of the PDA-s-UiO-66-NH2-CM membrane in oil-in-water separation. The outcomes were compared with the support vector machine (SVM) and decision tree (DT) algorithm. This efficiency includes various metrics related to its separation accuracy, and the models were developed through feature engineering to identify and utilize the most significant factors affecting the membrane's performance. The results proved the reliability of GPR optimization with the highest prediction accuracy in the validation phase. The average percentage increase of the GPR model compared to the SVM and DT model was 6.11 and 42.94%, respectively.

Abstract
The emergence of polymers with intrinsic microporosity provides solutions for flexible gas separation membranes with both high gas permeability and selectivity. However, their applications are significantly hindered by the costly synthetic efforts, limited availability of chemical systems, and narrow window of microporosity sizes. Herein, flexible mixed matrix membranes with tunable intrinsic microporosity can be facilely fabricated from the coordination assembly of polymer brushes and coordination nanocages. Polymer brushes bearing isophthalic acid side groups can coordinate with Cu2+ to assemble into polymer networks crosslinked by 2 nm nanocages. The semi-flexible feature of the polymer brush and the high crosslinking density of the network prevent the network from collapsing during solvent removal and the obtained aerogels demonstrate hierarchical structure with dual porosity from the crosslinked polymer network and coordination nanocage, respectively. The porosity can be facilely tuned via the amount of Cu2+ by regulating the network crosslinking density and nanocage loadings, and finally, optimized gas separation that surpasses Robeson upper bound for H2 /CO2 can be achieved. The coordination-driven assembly protocol paves a new avenue for the cost-effective synthesis of polymers with intrinsic microporosity and the fabrication of flexible gas separation membranes.

Abstract
The use of mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) comprising metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for the separation of CO2 from flue gas has gained recognition as an effective strategy for enhancing gas separation efficiency. When incorporating porous materials like MOFs into a polymeric matrix to create MMMs, the combined characteristics of each constituent typically manifest. Nevertheless, the inadequate dispersion of an inorganic MOF filler within an organic polymer matrix can compromise the compatibility between the filler and matrix. In this context, the aspiration is to develop an MMM that not only exhibits optimal interfacial compatibility between the polymer and filler but also delivers superior gas separation performance, specifically in the efficient extraction of CO2 from flue gas. In this study, we introduce a modification technique involving the grafting of poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether (PEGDE) onto a UiO-66-NH2 MOF filler (referred to as PEG-MOF), aimed at enhancing its compatibility with the 6FDA-durene matrix. Moreover, the inherent CO2-philic nature of PEGDE is anticipated to enhance the selectivity of CO2 over N2 and CH4. The resultant MMM, incorporating 10 wt% of PEG-MOF loading, exhibits a CO2 permeability of 1671.00 Barrer and a CO2/CH4 selectivity of 22.40. Notably, these values surpass the upper bound reported by Robeson in 2008.

Abstract
Hybrid composite materials combining metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and polymers have emerged as a versatile platform for a broad range of applications. The crystalline, porous nature of MOFs and the flexibility and processability of polymers are synergistically integrated in MOF-polymer composite materials. Covalent bonds, which form between two distinct materials, have been extensively studied as a means of creating strong molecular connections to facilitate the dispersion of "hard" MOF particles in "soft" polymers. Numerous organic transformations have been applied to post-synthetically connect MOFs with polymeric species, resulting in a variety of covalently connected MOF-polymer systems with unique properties that are dependent on the characteristics of the MOFs, polymers, and connection modes. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the development and strategies involved in preparing covalently connected MOFs and polymers, including recently developed MOF-covalent organic framework composites. The covalent bonds, grafting strategies, types of MOFs, and polymer backbones are summarized and categorized, along with their respective applications. We highlight how this knowledge can serve as a basis for preparing macromolecular composites with advanced functionality.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with benzophenone linker molecules are characterized by their ability to undergo photochemical postsynthetic modification. While this approach opens up almost unlimited possibilities for tailoring materials to specific applications, the processability of the large particles is still lacking. In this work, we present a new approach to fabricate micro flakes of the stable Zr-bzpdc-MOF (bzpdc = benzophenone-4-4'-dicarboxylate) with a thickness of only a few monolayers. The crystalline and nanoporous flakes form dispersions in acetone that are stable for months. Embedding the flakes in polymer composites was investigated as one of many possible applications. Zr-bzpdc-MOF micro flakes were decorated with poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) via a photochemical postsynthetic modification and incorporated into silicon elastomers. The PDMS functionalization allows covalent cross-linking between the MOF and the polymer while maintaining the porosity of the MOF. The resulting hybrid materials provide defect-free interfaces and show preferential adsorption of CO2 over CH4, making them attractive for gas separation or sensing applications. The work should serve as a basis for bringing bzpdc-MOFs into real-world applications - in polymeric membranes, but also beyond.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous crystalline materials assembled from organic ligands and metallic secondary building blocks. Their special structural composition gives them the advantages of high porosity, high specific surface area, adjustable pore size, and good stability. MOF membranes and MOF-based mixed-matrix membranes prepared from MOF crystals have ultra-high porosity, uniform pore size, excellent adsorption properties, high selectivity, and high throughput, which contribute to their being widely used in separation fields. This review summarizes the synthesis methods of MOF membranes, including in situ growth, secondary growth, and electrochemical methods. Mixed-matrix membranes composed of Zeolite Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIF), University of Oslo (UIO), and Materials of Institute Lavoisier (MIL) frameworks are introduced. In addition, the main applications of MOF membranes in lithium-sulfur battery separators, wastewater purification, seawater desalination, and gas separation are reviewed. Finally, we review the development prospects of MOF membranes for the large-scale application of MOF membranes in factories.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous hybrid materials with countless potential applications. Most of these rely on their porous structure, tunable composition, and the possibility of incorporating and expanding their functions. Although functionalization of the inner surface of MOF crystals has received considerable attention in recent years, methods to functionalize selectively the outer crystal surface of MOFs are developed to a lesser extent, despite their importance. This article summarizes different types of post-synthetic modifications and possible applications of modified materials such as: catalysis, adsorption, drug delivery, mixed matrix membranes, and stabilization of porous liquids.

Abstract
ConspectusCompositing MOFs with polymers brings out the best properties of both worlds. The solubility and excellent mechanical properties of polymers endow the brittle, powdery MOFs with enhanced processability, thereby enriching their functions as solid sorbents, filters, membranes, catalysts, drug delivery vehicles, and so forth. While most MOF-polymer composites are random mixtures of two materials with little control over their fine structures, MOF@polymer core-shell particles have recently emerged as a new platform for precise composite design. The well-defined polymer coating can keep the rich pore characteristics of the MOF intact while furnishing the MOF with new properties such as improved dispersibility in various media, tunable surface energy, enhanced chemical stability, and regulated guest diffusion. Nevertheless, the structural and chemical complexity of MOFs poses a grand challenge to the development of a generalizable and feasible strategy for constructing MOF@polymer. Examples in the literature that showcase the presence of a well-defined polymer shell on the MOF with fully reserved porosity are rare. Moreover, methods for coating MOFs with condensation polymers (e.g., polyimide, polysulfone) are severely underexplored, despite their clear potential as membrane materials. In this Account, we present our group's effort over the past 4 years on the synthesis and applications of MOF@polymer composites. We first described a highly generalizable surface polymerization method that utilizes the rapid physisorption of a random copolymer (RCP) to carry initiating groups to the MOF surfaces. Subsequent controlled radical polymerization led to the formation of a uniform methacrylate or styrenic polymer on the MOF with tunable thickness and composition. To utilize the properties of condensation polymers, we pioneered the covalent grafting of polyimide (PI) brushes to UiO-66-NH2 surfaces. In addition, to circumvent the need for a covalent anchoring group, we further developed an MOF surface grafting method based on mechanical linkage. Instead of connecting to the ligand, polyimide (PI) oligomer was linked to a functionalized linear polymer physically entangled within an MOF, thus realizing surface grafting with PI. Alternatively, PIs, polysulfone (PSF), and polycarbonate (PC) can also be grafted to various MOF surfaces through a metal-organic nanocapsule (MONC)-mediated method using a combination of electrostatic interaction and coordination bonds. To find a rapid and low-cost surface coating method suitable for commercialization, a new approach called non-solvent-induced surface-aimed deposition (NISAP) was developed. The action of the solvent phase separation drives dianhydrides and polyamines to the MOF surface, thus realizing accelerated polymerization and the rapid formation of a polymer coating on the MOF. Finally, we provided an overview of the unique properties and potential applications of MOF@polymer composites, including improved stability, MMMs, porous liquids (PLs), and immobilizing homogeneous catalysts. We hope that this Account can inspire more researchers to further develop and optimize the synthetic strategies for MOF@polymer and uncover its full application potential.

Abstract
Membrane-based separations have garnered considerable attention owing to their high energy efficiency, low capital cost, small carbon footprint, and continuous operation mode. As a class of highly porous crystalline materials with well-defined pore systems and rich chemical functionalities, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have demonstrated great potential as promising membrane materials over the past few years. Different types of MOF-based membranes, including polycrystalline membranes, mixed matrix membranes (MMMs), and nanosheet-based membranes, have been developed for diversified applications with remarkable separation performances. In this comprehensive review, we first discuss the general classification of membranes and outline the historical development of MOF-based membranes. Subsequently, particular attention is devoted to design strategies for MOF-based membranes, along with detailed discussions on the latest advances on these membranes for various gas and liquid separation processes. Finally, challenges and future opportunities for the industrial implementation of these membranes are identified and outlined with the intent of providing insightful guidance on the design and fabrication of high-performance membranes in the future.

Abstract
We report a synthetic methodology for decorating a surface of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with polymers through postsynthetic modification. Well-defined polymers with reversibly deactivated radical species at their chain end were reacted with vinyl-functionalized MOFs in the presence of a radical initiator. The radical addition forms a C-C bond between the polymer end with the functional group at the MOF ligand. We used sterically bulky star polymers containing electron-deficient maleimide chain ends, which facilitated modification of the external surface, yielding polymer-grafted MOF composite particles. A patchy MOF particle can also be obtained by simultaneously grafting two polymers and jammed at the immiscible liquid-liquid interface. We further show that the selective removal of a sacrificial polymer would partially expose the surface of MOFs to external environment, which hinders the uptake of macromolecular guests above the critical hydrodynamic size. Overall, four polymer@MOF composites have successfully been achieved through the present postsynthetic patchworks on MOFs with star polymers and selective etching process.

Abstract
The booming of global environmental awareness has driven the scientific community to search for alternative sustainable approaches. This is accentuated in the 13th sustainable development goal (SDG13), climate action, where urgent efforts are salient in combating the drastic effects of climate change. Membrane separation is one of the indispensable gas purification technologies that effectively reduces the carbon footprint and is energy-efficient for large-scale integration. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are recognized as promising fillers embedded in mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) to enhance gas separation performance. Tremendous research studies on MOFs-based MMMs have been conducted. Herein, this review offers a critical summary of the MOFs-based MMMs developed in the past 3 years. The basic models to estimate gas transport, preparation methods, and challenges in developing MMMs are discussed. Subsequently, the application and separation performance of a variety of MOFs-based MMMs including those of advanced MOFs materials are summarized. To accommodate industrial needs and resolve commercialization hurdles, the latest exploration of MOF materials for a harsh operating condition is emphasized. Along with the contemplation on the outlook, future perspective, and opportunities of MMMs, it is anticipated that this review will serve as a stepping stone for the coming MMMs research on sustainable and benign environmental application.

Abstract
The development of a facile strategy to construct defect-free and flexible metal-organic framework (MOF)-based membranes with high selectivity and good scalability holds great appeal. Here we report the fabrication of soft-solid MOF composite membranes on polyvinylidene fluoride substrates. A representative membrane comprised of quasi-vertically grown lamellar Zn2 (Bim)4 (Bim=benzimidazolate) and lateral ultrathin polyamide film adhering to the MOF side facets. The straight interlayer galleries within unwrapped Zn2 (Bim)4 acted as predominant pathways, while the polyamide served the function of defect elimination, synergistically inducing an unprecedented H2 /CO2 selectivity of 1084 which set a new record for MOF-based membranes. Separation performance was held constant after membrane rolling up into a tube with a diameter of 3 mm or folding and unfolding at 90° for 50 times. ZIF-67 and ZIF-8 composite membranes based on this strategy also realized extremely high H2 /CO2 separation accuracies. These results, which demonstrate the intrinsic molecular sieving capability of MOFs, will promote the development of MOF-based membranes in practical separation applications.

Mixed Matrix Membranes for Efficient CO 2 Separation Using an Engineered UiO-66 MOF in a Pebax Polymer. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14040655.

Abstract
Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) have attracted significant attention for overcoming the limitations of traditional polymeric membranes for gas separation through the improvement of both permeability and selectivity. However, the development of defect-free MMMs remains challenging due to the poor compatibility of the metal–organic framework (MOF) with the polymer matrix. Thus, we report a surface-modification strategy for a MOF through grafting of a polymer with intrinsic microporosity onto the surface of UiO-66-NH2. This method allows us to engineer the MOF–polymer interface in the MMMs using Pebax as a support. The insertion of a PIM structure onto the surface of UiO-66-NH2 provides additional molecular transport channels and enhances the CO2 transport by increasing the compatibility between the polymer and fillers for efficient gas separation. As a result, MMM with 1 wt% loading of PIM-grafted-MOF (PIM-g-MOF) exhibited very promising separation performance, with CO2 permeability of 247 Barrer and CO2/N2 selectivity of 56.1, which lies on the 2008 Robeson upper bound. Moreover, this MMM has excellent anti-aging properties for up to 240 days and improved mechanical properties (yield stress of 16.08 MPa, Young’s modulus of 1.61 GPa, and 596.5% elongation at break).

Abstract
Nanocomposite membrane (NCM) is deemed as a practical and green separation solution which has found application in various fields, due to its potential to delivery excellent separation performance economically. NCM is enabled by nanofiller, which comes in a wide range of geometries and chemical features. Despite numerous advantages offered by nanofiller incorporation, fabrication of NCM often met processing issues arising from incompatibility between inorganic nanofiller and polymeric membrane. Contemporary, functionalization of nanofiller which modify the surface properties of inorganic material using chemical agents is a viable approach and vigorously pursued to refine NCM processing and improve the odds of obtaining a defect-free high-performance membrane. This review highlights the recent progress on nanofiller functionalization employed in the fabrication of gas-separative NCMs. Apart from the different approaches used to obtain functionalized nanofiller (FN) with good dispersion in solvent and polymer matrix, this review discusses the implication of functionalization in altering the structure and chemical properties of nanofiller which favor interaction with specific gas species. These changes eventually led to the enhancement in the gas separation efficiency of NCMs. The most frequently used chemical agents are identified for each type of gas. Finally, the future perspective of gas-separative NCMs are highlighted.

Abstract
Postsynthetic exchange (PSE) is a method that is widely used to change the composition of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) by replacing connecting linkers or metal nodes after the framework has been synthesized. However, few techniques can probe the nature and distribution of exchanged species following PSE. Herein, we show that X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy can be used to compare the relative concentrations of exchanged ligands at the surface and interior regions of MOF particles. Specifically, PSE of iodobenzene dicarboxylate ligands results in a gradient distribution from surface to bulk in UiO-66 nanoparticles that depends on PSE time. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy also reveals differences between the surface chemistry of the PSE product and that of the direct synthesis product.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks with high aspect ratios have the potential to yield high-performance gas separation membranes. We demonstrate the scalable synthesis of high–aspect ratio zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)–8 nanoplates via a direct template conversion method in which high aspect ratio–layered Zn hydroxide sheets [Zn5(NO3)2(OH)8] were used as the sacrificial precursor. Successful phase conversion occurs as a result of the collaboration of low template stability and delayed delivery of 2-methylimidazole in weakly interacting solvents, particularly using acetone. When the ZIF-8 nanoplates with an average aspect ratio of 20 were shear aligned in the 6FDA-DAM polymer matrix by bar coating, the separation performance for propylene/propane far surpassed that of the previously reported mixed matrix and polymeric membranes, showing a propylene permeability of 164 Barrer and selectivity of 33.4 at 40 weight % loadings.

Abstract
The engineering of mixed-matrix membranes is severely hindered by the trade-off between mechanical performance and effective utilization of inorganic fillers' microporosity. Herein, we report a feasible approach for optimal gas separation membranes through the fabrication of coordination nanocages with poly(4-vinylpyridine) (P4VP) via strong supramolecular interactions, enabling the homogeneous dispersion of nanocages in polymer matrixes with long-term structural stability. Meanwhile, suggested from dynamics studies, the strong attraction between P4VP and nanocages slows down polymer dynamics and rigidifies the polymer chains, leading to frustrated packing and lowered densities of the polymer matrix. This effect allows the micropores of nanocages to be accessible to external gas molecules, contributing to the intrinsic microporosity of the nanocomposites and the simultaneous enhancement of permselectivities. The facile strategy for supramolecular synthesis and polymer dynamics attenuation paves avenues to rational design of functional hybrid membranes for gas separation applications.

Abstract
Delicately regulating the distribution morphology of a filler is an effective strategy to promote the separation performance of mixed matrix membranes (MMMs). Herein, we describe a highly permeable metal-organic framework (MOF)-based MMM comprising vertically aligned ZIF-8 (V-ZIF-8) and polysulfone (PSF). The V-ZIF-8 is distributed uniformly within the PSF matrix. With this unique distribution morphology of ZIF-8, the shortest gas transport pathways are formed in the membrane. Meanwhile, the molecular-sieving pores of ZIF-8 can allow CO2 to pass through and crowding out N2. The obtained V-ZIF-8/PSF membrane shows a high CO2 permeability of 89.7 Barrer and a CO2/N2 selectivity of 30.0 that is stable over a period of 50 h. The CO2 permeability is enhanced about 11.8 times than that of the pure PSF membrane. The results prove that the vertically aligned distribution morphology of an MOF in a polymer matrix is an effective method to improve the separation performance of a membrane, providing a new concept for designing more advanced membranes.

Abstract
Proton-exchange membrane fuel cells are an attractive green technology for energy production. However, one of their major drawbacks is instability of the electrolytes under working conditions (i.e., temperature and humidity). Some metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have recently emerged as promising alternative electrolyte materials because of their higher stability (compared with the organic polymers currently used as electrolytes), proton conductivity, and outstanding porosity and versatility. Here, we present ionic exchange in a microporous zirconium phosphonate, UPG-1, as an efficient strategy to enhance its conductivity and cyclability. Thus, labile protons of the hybrid structure were successfully replaced by different alkali cations (Li+, Na+, and K+), leading to 2 orders of magnitude higher proton conductivity than the pristine UPG-1 (up to 2.3 × 10-2 S·cm-1, which is comparable with those of the commercial electrolytes). Further, the proton conductivity was strongly influenced by the MOF hydrophilicity and the polarization strength of the cation, as suggested by molecular simulation. Finally, a mixed-matrix membrane containing the best-performing material (the potassium-exchanged one) was successfully prepared, showing moderate proton conductivity (up to 8.51 × 10-3 S·cm-1).

Abstract
Hemoperfusion has become the third-generation treatment strategy for patients suffering from hyperbilirubinemia, but adsorbents used for bilirubin removal mostly face intractable problems, such as unsatisfactory adsorption performance and poor hemocompatibility. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising adsorbents for hemoperfusion due to their high specific surface areas and easily modified organic ligands. However, their microporous properties and separation have hampered their application. Here, a novel hierarchical core-shell nanoplatform (named Double-PEG) with tailored binding sites and pore sizes based on Fe3O4@C and Uio66-NH2 was constructed. Notably, Double-PEG showed excellent bilirubin uptake of up to 1738.30 mg g-1 and maintained excellent bilirubin removal efficiency in simulated biological solutions. A study on the adsorption mechanism showed that the adsorption of Double-PEG towards bilirubin tended to be chemical adsorption and in accordance with the Langmuir model. Besides, the good separability, recyclability, cytotoxicity and hemocompatibility of Double-PEG show great potential in hemoperfusion therapy. The finding of this study may provide a novel insight into the application of MOF materials in the field of hemoperfusion.

Abstract
A simple one-step approach that only uses commercially available small-molecule reagents was developed for the construction of metal-organic framework (MOF)@polymer core-shell composite particles. Here, the MOF particles were incorporated into a typical reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization solution containing a solvent, a chain-transfer agent, an initiator, and a monomer mixture with at least one hydrogen-bond-donating monomer such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate or acrylic acid. The elongation of polymer chains during polymerization gradually increases MOF/polymer interfacial interaction and eventually results in the adsorption of a random copolymer onto the MOF surface through hydrogen-bond cross-linking and MOF/polymer interfacial interaction. The continuous growth of the polymer leads to a uniform polymer coating on the MOF. Benefiting from the tacky polymer surface, these well-defined MOF@polymer composite particles can be further assembled into highly ordered monolayer composite thin films either alone or with an additional polymer matrix through the Langmuir-Blodgett technique.

Abstract
This work describes the first generalizable method to modify various metal-organic framework (MOF) surfaces with polyimide, polysulfone, polycarbonate, and polymer of intrinsic microporosity-1 (PIM-1). The method first utilizes electrostatic adsorption to rapidly decorate positively charged MOF surfaces with a layer of negatively charged metal-organic nanocapsule, PgC5 Cu. After mixing with the polymer, the copper open metal sites on PgC5 Cu can coordinatively crosslink the polar functional groups on the surface polymer upon thermal activation thereby resulting in the immobilization of a uniform sub-10 nm polymer coating. We quantitatively analyzed the distribution of free path spacing between MOF particles and demonstrated that when the surface polymer matches the matrix polymer, the MOF dispersion was not only visually improved but also found to align perfectly with a theoretically predicted ideal dispersion model where no aggregation driving force was present.

Abstract
Mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) with an ideal polymer-filler interface and high gas separation performance are very challenging to fabricate because of incompatibility between the fillers and the polymer matrix. This work provides a simple technique to prepare a series of cross-linked MMMs (xMMM@n) by covalently attaching UiO-66-NB metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) within the PEG/PPG-PDMS copolymer matrix via ring-opening metathesis polymerization and in situ membrane casting. The norbornene-modified MOF (UiO-66-NB) is successfully copolymerized and dispersed homogeneously into a PEG/PPG-PDMS matrix because of very fast polymer formation and strong covalent interaction between MOFs and the rubbery polymer. A significant improvement in gas permeability is achieved in membranes up to a 5 wt % MOF loading compared to the pristine polymer membrane without affecting selectivity. The CO2/N2 separation performance of xMMM@1, xMMM@3, and xMMM@5 with 1, 3, and 5 wt % MOF loading, respectively, surpassed Robeson's 2008 upper bound. In addition, the best performing membrane, xMMM@3 (PCO2 = 585 Barrer and CO2/N2 ∼53), approaches the 2019 upper bound, indicating that the cross-linked MMMs (xMMM@n) are very promising for CO2 separation from flue gas. The experimental results of our study were evaluated and are supported by theoretical data obtained using the Maxwell model for MMMs. Moreover, the developed MMMs, xMMM@ns, displayed outstanding antiplasticization performance at pressures of up to 25 atm and very stable antiaging performance for up to 11 months with good temperature switching behaviors.

Abstract
Gas separation and purification using polymeric membranes is a promising technology that constitutes an energy-efficient and eco-friendly process for large scale integration. However, pristine polymeric membranes typically suffer from the trade-off between permeability and selectivity represented by the Robeson's upper bound. Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) synthesized by the addition of porous nano-fillers into polymer matrices, can enable a simultaneous increase in selectivity and permeability. Among the various porous fillers, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are recognized in recent days as a promising filler material for the fabrication of MMMs. In this article, we review representative examples of MMMs prepared by dispersion of MOFs into polymer matrices or by deposition on the surface of polymeric membranes. Addition of MOFs into other continuous phases, such as ionic liquids, are also included. CO2 separation from hydrocarbons, H2, N2, and the like is emphasized. Hybrid fillers based on composites of MOFs with other nanomaterials, e.g., of MOF/GO, MOF/CNTs, and functionalized MOFs, are also presented and discussed. Synergetic effects and the result of interactions between filler/matrix and filler/filler are reviewed, and the impact of filler and matrix types and compositions, filler loading, surface area, porosity, pore sizes, and surface functionalities on tuning permeability are discoursed. Finally, selectivity, thermal, chemical, and mechanical stability of the resulting MMMs are analyzed. The review concludes with a perspective of up-scaling of such systems for CO2 separation, including an overview of the most promising MMM systems.
