Abstract

A hierarchical porous composite of Pt@MIL-101/ployvinylidene fluoride (Pt@MIL-101/PVDF) was successfully prepared through a solution-processed method. This composite possesses advanced superhydrophobic and superaerophilic performance which makes it a promising catalyst facilitating liquid phase catalytic exchange techniques (LPCE) in hydrogen-water isotope exchange process. Its superhydrophobic property results in the repellence of water drops from flooding the catalytic surface with a relatively large contact angle in the exchange reaction, and its superaerophilic surface broke hydrogen bubbles into thin film so as to reach higher catalytic reactive efficiency. High reactivity and long-term stability in the reaction process can also be achieved by the configuration of mesoporous cages of MIL-101 confining Pt nanoparticles and preventing them from sintering.
