MOF/polymer composite synthesized using a double solvent method offers enhanced water and CO2 adsorption properties.

A double solvent method is for the first time used to synthesize a polymer composite that is constructed by a Ni-pyrazolate MOF and polydopamine (PDA). The resulting composite shows significantly enhanced water and CO2 adsorption properties compared to the parent MOF and the composite synthesized without the double solvent method.
