The chitosan confined pyrolysis strategy enhances the catalytic performance of a carbon material based on a novel carboxyl functionalized MOF†
Abstract
A carboxyl functionalized metal–organic framework [Co(TPT)2/3(bptc)]·3H2O (Co-MOF (–COOH)) was designed with the aim of grafting protective CTS onto the surface as a precursor. Compared with direct carbonization and physical mixing carbonization, (Co-MOF-g-CTS)-900 prepared by confined pyrolysis shows excellent catalytic reduction performance.
