Shapeable Fibrous Aerogels of Metal–Organic-Frameworks Templated with Nanocellulose for Rapid and Large-Capacity Adsorption

Conventional metal-organic framework (MOF) powders have periodic micro/mesoporous crystalline architectures tuned by their three-dimensional coordination of metal nodes and organic linkers. To add practical macroscopic shapeability and extrinsic hierarchical porosity, fibrous MOF aerogels were produced by synthesizing MOF crystals on the template of TEMPO-cellulose nanofibrils. Cellulose nanofibrils not only offered extrinsic porosities and...
