Biomimetic highly hydrophobic stearic acid functionalized MOF sponge for efficient oil/water separation

The field of oil/water separation has become a global concern with increase in oil/water pollution. Fabrication of highly hydrophobic surfaces by bio mimicking the ‘Lotus effect’ is turning out to be an area of active research in this regard. In current work ZIF-8 functionalized, stearic acid functi...
