Interfacial chemistries in metal–organic framework (MOF)/covalent–organic framework (COF) hybrids

Abstract

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have been attracting tremendous attention in various applications due to their unique structural properties. Recent interest has been focused on their combination as hybrids to enable the engineering of new classes of frameworks with complementary properties. This review gives a comprehensive summary on the interfacial chemistries in MOF/COF hybrids, which play critical roles in their hybridization. The challenges and perspectives in the field of MOF/COF hybrids are also provided to inspire more efforts in diversifying this hybrid family and their cross-disciplinary applications.
