Highly Efficient Cauliflower-like Palladium-Loaded Porous MOF as a Robust Material for the Degradation of Organic Dyes.

ABSTRACT: A series of porous MOF materials, viz., Pd_x@IRMOF-9 (x = 2, 5, and 10%) were synthesized by loading varying concentrations of Pd(II) on IRMOF-9. The synthesized MOF materials were characterized by ltravioletisible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, Fourier transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses. UV, FT-IR, and PXRD data of Pd(II)@IRMOF-9 were found to be in line with those of IRMOF-9, which suggests that the structure of the IRMOF-9 remained intact upon Pd(II) loading. Surface morphology of IRMOF-9 showed sheet-like structures, and upon incorporation of Pd(II) to IRMOF-9, porous cauliflower-shaped MOFs were obtained. The SEM area mapping of Pd_10%@IRMOF-9
