Applications

ZIF-8’s exceptional surface area, chemical stability, and pH-responsive behavior make it highly versatile across numerous fields. In drug delivery, it enables targeted release in acidic environments, making it especially valuable in cancer therapy. Its selective adsorption capacity for gases like CO₂ and H₂ supports its use in gas separation and storage. ZIF-8 also plays a role in environmental remediation through photocatalytic degradation of pollutants and enhances sensitivity in electrochemical sensors. In energy storage, it serves as an additive in supercapacitors and lithium-ion batteries, improving performance. Biomedical applications include antibacterial coatings, bone tissue engineering, and bioimaging platforms. Furthermore, its antimicrobial nature makes it suitable for use in active food packaging materials.
