Cellulose-metal organic frameworks (CelloMOFs) hybrid materials and their multifaceted Applications : A review

• Cellulose-MOFs (CelloMOFs) are attractive hybrid materials that make available a range of hitherto unattainable properties by conjugating cellulosic materials with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). CelloMOFs have demonstrated a great potential to be applied in several fields such as water remediation, air purification, gas storage, sensing/biosensing, and biomedicine. CelloMOFs can act as an efficient adsorbent to remove emerging contaminants such as metals, dyes, drugs, antibiotics, pesticides, and oils in water via adsorption. They can be also used as catalysts for catalytic degradation, reduction, and oxidation of organic pollutants. They have been applied as filters for air purification via removing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and particulate matter (PMs). Biomedical applications such as antibacterial, drug delivery, biosensing were also reported for CelloMOFs materials. This review summarized the synthesis, characterization, and applications of cellulose-MOFs materials. It covered a broad overview of the status of the combination of cellulose in micron to nanoscale with MOFs. At the end of the review, the challenges and outlook regarding CelloMOFs were discussed. Hopefully, this review will be a useful guide for researchers and scientists who are looking for quick access to relevant references about CelloMOFs hybrid materials and their applications.
