Abstract
A carbon nanowire contains a photocatalytic metal-organic framework (MOF) in the form of a nanoparticle. Methods herein may produce a nanowire, fabrics, nonwoven fabrics, products, etc. containing such a nanowire, and/or the MOF having antibacterial and/or pathogenic efficacy upon irradiation.
Claims20
1) A carbon nanowire comprising a photocatalytic metal-organic framework in the form of a nanoparticle.
4) A method for producing a metal-organic framework nanoparticle comprising the steps of:
- A) dissolving Zn(NO3)2·6H2O in methanol for form a Zn(NO3)2·6H2O solution;
- B) dissolving 2-methylimidazole in methanol to form a 2-methylimidazole solution;
- C) adding the Zn(NO3)2·6H2O solution to the 2-methylimidazole solution to form a reaction solution;
- D) stirring the reaction solution for from about 5 minutes to about 48 hours to form a milky white precipitate;
- E) washing the milky white precipitate with methanol from about 1 time to about 10 times to form a washed precipitate;
- F) drying the washed precipitate at from about 35° C. to about 150° C. to form a dried metal-organic framework precipitate;
- and
- G) thermally-treating the dried precipitate at from about 125° C. to about 700° C. for from about 5 minutes to about 48 hours to form a thermally treated metal-organic framework nanoparticle.
