Different methods (the wetness impregnation of Ag and Pd precursors dissolved in water or acetonitrile solution, and the double solvent impregnation technique) were employed to immobilize Ag–Pd nanoparticles (NPs) into the pores of the microporous zirconium-based metal-organic framework known as UiO-66. The obtained materials were characterized by using nitrogen adsorption-desorption at −196 °C, powder X-ray diffraction, UV-Vis diffusion reflectance spectroscopy, and transition electron microscopy measurements. Special attention was paid to the acid and redox properties of the obtained materials, which were studied by using temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (TPD-NH3) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR-H2) methods. The use of a drying procedure prior to reduction was found to result in metallic NPs which, most likely, formed on the external surface and were larger than corresponding voids of the metal-organic framework. The formation of Ag–Pd alloy or monometallic Ag and Pd depended on the nature of both metal precursors and the impregnation solvent used. Catalytic activity of the AgPd/UiO-66 materials in propylene glycol oxidation was found to be a result of synergistic interaction between the components in AgPd alloyed NPs immobilized in the pore space and on the external surface of UiO-66. The key factor for consistent transformation of propylene glycol into lactic acid was the proximity between redox and acid-base species.

Nanoscale mechanical properties measurement of porous nanosheets presents many challenges. Herein we show atomic force microscope (AFM) nanoindentation to probe the nanoscale mechanical properties of a 2‑D metal‑organic framework (MOF) nanosheet material, termed CuBDC [copper 1,4‑benzenedicarboxylate]. The sample thickness was ranging from ~10 nm (tens of monolayers) up to ~400 nm (stack of multilayers). In terms of its elastic‑plastic properties, the Young’s modulus (<i>E</i> ~ 22.9 GPa) and yield strength (𝜎<sub>Y</sub> ~ 448 MPa) have been determined in the through-thickness direction. Moreover, we have characterized the failure mechanisms of the CuBDC nanosheets, where three failure mechanisms have been identified: interfacial sliding, fracture of framework, and delamination of multilayered nanosheets. Threshold forces and corresponding indentation depths corresponding to the failure modes have been determined. To gain insights into the failure mechanisms, we employ finite-element models with cohesive elements to simulate the interfacial debonding of a stack of 2‑D nanosheets during the indentation process. The nanomechanical AFM methodology elucidated here will be pertinent to the study of other 2‑D hybrid nanosheets and van der Waals solids.

The mechanical properties of a metal–organic framework were highly improved by the insertion of polymer chains into the nanochannels.
