Overview | Product Information | Related Products

UiO-66 (CAS number 1072413-89-8) is a metal-organic framework (MOF) consisting of zirconium (IV) metal centers and terephthalate (benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate, BDC) linkers. UiO-66 was first reported by the Lillerud group in University of Oslo (Universitetet i Oslo) in 2008.

The structure of UiO-66 possesses exceptional stability, owing to the inner Zr₆O₄(OH)₄ cluster, where the Zr₆ octahedron is capped with μ₃–O and μ₃–OH groups. The Zr₆O₄(OH)₄ core has twelve coordination sites to the carboxylate linkers, forming a face-centered cubic structure. The stable structure allows UiO-66 to be used in multiple application such as drug delivery, catalysis and water remediation.

When UiO-66 is impregnated with palladium nanoparticles, the resulting composite catalyst exhibits high selectivity (up to 99%) for dimethyl carbonate production via direct CO esterification. In addition, UiO-66 has demonstrated strong performance in water purification, effectively adsorbing including polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), organic dyes and pharmaceutical pollutants.
