Cooperation between covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and metal organic frameworks (MOFs): application of COFs-MOFs hybrids

The application and development of porous materials have a long history. With the deepening of study, more and more advanced organic porous materials and organic-inorganic porous materials have been designed and prepared. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and metal organic frameworks (MOFs) materials, as typical representatives among them, have attracted extensive attention all over the world since the first report, and show great application potential in the fields of adsorption, catalysis, drug delivery, luminescence, sensor, separation analysis, energy storage, and others. COFs-MOFs hybrid materials combine the advantages of COFs and MOFs, and are gradually being reported in the fields of sensors, energy storage, adsorption, catalysis, and biological applications. The current research results show that the COFs-MOFs hybrid materials have ingenious obvious structural characteristics and superior performance, and will be widely applied in more and more fields with the deepening of research and development. It is believed that the cooperation between these two famous materials will bring more surprises to the world.
