In situ interfacial growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) nanoparticles induced by a graphene oxide Pickering emulsion†
Abstract
A novel method of an in situ interfacial growth of nanoparticles induced by a Pickering emulsion was proposed for the fabrication of hollow composites. With the interfacial growth of ZIF-8 nanoparticles at the n-octanol/water interface of a Pickering emulsion stabilized by graphene oxide (GO), the hollow ZIF-8/GO composite was obtained.
