Polypyrrole reinforced ZIF-67 with modulated facet exposure and billion-fold electrical conductivity enhancement towards robust photocatalytic CO2 reduction

The implementation of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) as the co-catalysts in hybrid photocatalytic systems puts requirements on both their charge-carrying capability and solvent stability. In the current study, in order to simultaneously promote the electrical conductivity and water stability of ZIF-67, an in-situ monomer trapping strategy is deployed to synthesize polypyrrole (PPy)-reinforced ZIF-67 ensembles. Through coordination modulation,...
