Abstract

Metal-organic frameworks (MOF) are among the most researched porous materials due to the tunability of their physico-chemical properties through structural changes and broad application potential. Mechanochemical MOF synthesis is a sustainable and often superior alternative to solution MOF synthesis. Therefore, this work aimed to advance mechanochemical strategies for the synthesis and modification of MOFs and their unconventional derivatives by using two well-investigated MOF classes, ZIF-8 and MOF-74. It involved the development of the controllable mechanochemical synthetic strategy for the encapsulation of functional guests into MOFs, using the encapsulation of Buckminsterfullerene into ZIF-8 as a model system. Moreover, it explored the preparation of both crystalline and amorphous phases of multivariate MOFs, bimetallic zinc-copper MOF-74 materials through diverse synthetic pathways, including mechanochemical amorphisation. The results have demonstrated that the selection of an appropriate synthetic strategy significantly affects the physical and chemical characteristics and the possible applications of explored MOFs.
