ABSTRACT

This chapter aims to provide the latest progress and key challenges within Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), MOF-MOx, in selected metal-derived MOx nanocomposites, and their promising applications. The scope of this chapter is metal oxide features (ZnO, TiO, and CuO), and their structure, morphologies, (core-shell and yolk-shell nanostructure). Their application shows promise for overcoming a number of the remaining problems. Following a succinct depiction with wild use of MOF-based composites, a new family of porous materials has been benchmarked. The tunable porosity of MOFs is combined with the flexible functionality of metal-oxide or metal nanoparticles (NPs) in NPs@MOF composites. These are idealized frameworks for finding design characteristics for innovative functional materials due to their synthetic versatility, rich host-guest chemistry, and long-range order. Through the consideration of MOFS and metal oxide nanocomposites with remarkable characteristics such as high specific surface area, rationally designed structures, engineered morphologies, and high crystallinity it can be seen that they are exceptional platform materials for the environmental science community.
