One-step fabrication of mixed matrix metal–organic framework membranes for sustainable catalytic processes

Abstract

Mixed-matrix membranes with either pristine or defective UiO-66 metal–organic framework fillers were fabricated via a novel one-step process. On top of a simpler, more sustainable preparation, these membranes also exhibit remarkable catalytic activity for a sulfur oxidation reaction when compared to those produced by the traditional filler dispersion process.
