This talk highlights a proof-of-concept that demonstrates the ability to calculate high-resolution Fourier transforms. These can be combined with multi-scale modeling to simulate scattering over a wide range, from small-angle scattering to XRD and PDF.

We present the optical sensing of phthalate Esters (PAEs), a group of endocrine-disrupting chemicals. The sensing takes place as changes in the fluorescence emission intensity of aminopyrene covalently bound to the organic ligands of the metal−organic framework compound ZIF-8. In the presence of PAEs, a quenching of the fluorescence emission is observed. We evaluated strategies to engineer colloidal size distribution of the sensing particles to optimize the sensory response to PAEs. A thorough characterization of the modified ZIF-8 nanoparticles included powder X-ray diffractometry, transmission electron microscopy, high-performance liquid chromatography, and photophysical characterization. The presented capability of the fluorophore-functionalized ZIF-8 to sense PAEs complements established methods such as chromatography-based procedures, which cannot be used on-site and paves the way for future developments such as hand-held quick sensing devices.
Mechanochemically synthesized metal–organic Framework material HKUST-1 in combination with acrylonitrile butadiene styrene polymer was used to form a polymer metal–organic framework composite material by a simple extruder.
This composite filament was used for 3D printing. Xray diffraction measurements were used to prove the homogeneous distribution of the metal–organic framework in the polymer on a centimeter scale, whereas X-ray Absorption Edge Tomography using a synchrotron radiation source was able to evaluate the 3D distribution of the metal–organic framework material both in the filament and the resultant printed sample with a resolution of a few lm. Our very first data indicate that, apart from a few clusters having significantly higher Cu concentration, HKUST-1 is distributed homogeneously down to the 100 lm length scale in both polymer bulk materials in the form of clusters with a size of a few lm. Absorption Edge Tomography in combination with data fusion also allows for the calculation of the metal–organic framework amount located on the external polymer surface.
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are suitable materials for gas storage of small molecules due to their nanoporous, crystalline structure. The extensively studied MOF HKUST-1 consist of Cu(II)-dimers in a paddlewheel structure, with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (BTC) as organic linker. Instability to humidity remains an issue for many types of MOFs, and for HKUST-1, it has been found that exposure to water vapor creates a surface barrier which reduces the gas uptake rate.
Near-ambient pressure XPS (NAP-XPS) is a promising method for investigations of the stability and interaction of HKUST-1 with various gas molecules. The oxidation state of copper can be monitored before, during and after exposure to various gases. This does not only provide information on the stability of the MOFs, but also on the interaction with the gas molecules.
NAP-XPS measurements of HKUST-1 exposed to methanol, pyridine and water vapor were performed with EnviroESCA, a laboratory NAP-XPS instrument developed by SPECS. Cu 2p, O 1s and C 1s core level spectra and Cu LMM Auger spectra were acquired at pressures ranging from high vacuum to 4 mbar to assess the oxidation state of copper and the stability of the organic linker. Reference measurements in argon atmosphere were conducted in order to have reference spectra with similar full width of half maxima (FHWM) as the spectra measured in reactive atmospheres. Peak fit analysis of the Cu 2p3/2 core level spectra shows that, as expected, the photoelectron signal mainly originates from Cu(II) species. The contribution from Cu(I) is negligible for samples exposed to argon and methanol, but approximately 4% for samples exposed to water vapor and 8% for samples exposed to pyridine. Within the error of the peak fit analysis, there are no changes in relative Cu(II) percentage with increasing water, methanol or pyridine exposure time pointing to saturation reached already at the lowest time of exposure.

Cu 2p, O 1s and C 1s core level spectra were acquired in pressure ranging from 10-5 to 8 mbar to assess the oxidation state of copper and the stability of the organic linker. HKUST-1 does not show interaction with pyridine, but there are indications of copper-reduction upon exposure to methanol and water vapor. Radiation induced damage is considered and two different approaches for determining the ratio of Cu(I) to Cu(II) will be discussed.
Absorption edge tomography is a method which exploits the sudden change of the attenuation coefficient, when the photon energy crosses the absorption edge of an element. The beamline BAM line at BESSY II, which is operated by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing, can provide a monochromatized beam in a photon energy range from 5 keV up to 80 keV with a bandwidth of 2%. Together with the microtomography setup, this enables differential tomography sensitive to any element with N >= 24 (Cr) by using an appropriate K- or L-edge in this range. Here, a polymer filament embedding metal organic framework (MOF) was prepared and used for 3D printing. Absorption edge tomography at the copper K edge was employed to perform a non-destructive 3D characterization of the microstructure of the embedded MOF. Data fusion was then used to determine the size distribution of the embedded MOF.

Anewbariumcoordination polymer, BaF-benzenedicarboxylate (BaF(p-BDC)0.5), with fluorine directly coordinated to the metal cation, was prepared by mechanochemical synthesis routes. Phase-pure BaF-benzenedicarboxylate was synthesized by milling starting either from barium hydroxide or from Barium acetate as sources for barium cations. In both cases, the second reactant was 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H2(p-BDC)). Ammonium fluoride was used as fluorinating agent directly at milling. This is the first mechanochemical synthesis of coordination polymers where fluorine is directly coordinated to the metal cation.
Following the second possibility, barium acetate fluoride (Ba(OAc)F) is formed as ntermediate product after milling, and the new coordination polymer is accessible only after washing with water and dimethyl sulfoxide. The new compound BaF(p-BDC)0.5 was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, FTIR-, and 19F, 1H-13C CP MAS NMR spectroscopies, DTA-TG, and elemental Analysis.
Equipping ZIF particles with a polyelectrolyte membrane provides functional groups at their interface, enabling further conjugations necessary for applications such as targeted drug delivery. Previous approaches to coat ZIF particles with polyelectrolytes led to surface corrosion of the template material. This work overcomes previous limitations by performing a Layer-by-Layer (LbL) polyelectrolyte coating onto ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 particles in nonaqueous environment. Using the 2-methylimidazolium salt of polystyrensulfonic acid instead of the acid itself and polyethyleneimine in methanol led to intact ZIF particles after polyelectrolyte coating. This was verified by electron microscopy. Further, zetapotential and atomic force microscopy measurements confirmed a continuous polyelectrolyte multilayer built up. The here reported adaption to the well-studied (LbL) polyelectrolyte selfassembly process provides a facile method to equip ZIF particles with a nanometer thin polyelectrolyte multilayer membrane.
