Abstract: | "One of the main pollutants in indoor air is volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which can cause great harm to human health. So the development of a VOC detection technology is of great significance. In this work, a tetraphenylethylene-functionalized UiO-66 based on aggregation-induced emission was successfully prepared. The UiO-66-TBPE structure exhibits the characteristic blue emission of TBPE ligands under UV excitation and can be used as a luminescence sensor for fast and efficient detection of VOCs. More importantly, UiO-66-TBPE has a high fluorescence sensing selectivity in p-xylene and styrene vapor. To further improve the practical performance, we combined UiO-66-TBPE with the polymer polyacrylate (PA) to obtain a flexible hybrid membrane with fast detection performance for styrene vapor within the 30 s. The deeper sensing mechanism of p-xylene and styrene inducing different fluorescence enhancement and fluorescence quenching is explained by a combination of modern characterization techniques and computer simulation. Finally, we applied UiO-66-TBPE/PA to leather and still maintained a good sensing performance. It provides a potential way for the application of fluorescent metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to detect VOCs in daily life" |
