Abstract

As one of the most appealing strategies for the synthesis of nanomaterials with various architectures, emulsion-directed methods have been rarely used to control the structure of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Herein, we report a versatile salt-assisted nanoemulsion-guided assembly to achieve continuous architecture transition of hierarchical Zr-based MOFs. The morphology of nanoemulsion can be facilely regulated by tuning the feed ratio of a dual-surfactant and the introduced amount of compatible hydrophobic compounds, which directs the assembly of MOFs with various architectures such as bowl-like mesoporous particle, dendritic nanospheres, walnut-shaped particles, crumpled nanosheets and nanodisks. The developed dendritic nanospheres with highly open and large mesochannels is successfully used as matrix for the co-immobilization of coenzymes and corresponding enzymes to realize the in situ heterogeneous regeneration of NAD. This strategy is expected to pave a way for exploring sophisticated hierarchical MOFs which can be competent for practical applications with bulk molecules involved.
