Development and characterization of nano-MOFs

In the modern era, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have gained more importance compared to conventional single-atom catalysts. MOFs have been synthesized with different methods like solvothermal, ion-thermal, microwave, mechanochemical, sonochemical, and electrochemical and have very specific porous structures, fine ultrahigh surface areas, selectivity, fine designability, and hollow and core structures. Because of these properties, MOF materials are used in different applications like water remediation treatment, heavy metal separation, volatile organic compound degradation, catalytic degradation, and specific target sensing. Nanomaterial-based MOF structures are used in a very wide application spectrum, and their importance and applications are discussed.
