Abstract

The fabrication of state-of-the-art membranes with customized functions and high efficiency is of great significance, but presents challenges. Emerging metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)/polymer hybrid membranes have provided bright promise as an innovative platform to target multifunctional hybrid materials and devices; this is thanks to their unique properties, which come from three components that are collaboratively enforced. This minireview provides a brief overview of recent progress in the construction of such hybrid membranes, and highlights some of their very important applications in separation, conduction, and sensing.

Keywords: conduction; membranes; metal-organic frameworks; polymers; sensing; separation.
