Recent advances in Fe₃O₄@MOF magnetic framework composites: Preparation methods and catalytic performance

چکیده مقاله

Catalysts are fundamental to the manufacturing of a vast majority of industrial chemicals and are pivotal in environmental cleanup efforts. In addition, Recent years have seen a surge of interest in MNPs, attributed to their significant saturation magnetization, compatibility with biological systems, low toxicity, stability, and cost-effectiveness. The combination of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) results in the creation of magnetic framework composites (MFCs). MFCs are utilized across a broad spectrum of domains, including catalysis, biomedicine, battery, wastewater treatment, and so on. In this review, we have examined the three primary methods for synthesizing MOF-Fe₃O₄ magnetic composites: (I) the Microwave method, (II) the Solvo(hydro)thermal method, and (III) the Sonochemical method. Also, we have meticulously analyzed recent catalytic applications of Fe₃O₄@MOF composites', including organic transformations, photocatalysts, their use in reduction and oxidation reactions, peroxidase-like activity, fenton-like catalyst as well as their catalytic application in multi-component reactions. This review covers studies conducted between 2020 and 2024. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.
