Hierarchical MOFs with Good Catalytic Properties and Structural Stability in Oxygen‐Rich and High‐Temperature Environments

Abstract Metal‐organic framework materials are ideal materials characterized by open frameworks, adjustable components, and high catalytic activity. They are extensively utilized for catalysis. Due to decomposition and structural collapse under high temperatures and an oxygen‐rich environment, the potential of thermal catalysis is greatly limited. In this research, Co‐rich hollow spheres (Co‐HSs) with a gradient composition are designed and synthesized to investigate their thermal catalytic properties in the ammonium perchlorate（AP）system. The results demonstrate that Co‐HSs@AP exhibits good thermal catalytic activity and a high‐temperature decomposition of 292.5 °C, which is 121.6 °C lower than pure AP. The hierarchical structure confers structural stability during the thermal decomposition process. Thermogravimetry‐infrared indicates that the inclusion of Co‐HSs successfully boosts the level of reactive oxygen species and achieves thorough oxidation of NH 3 . Based on the above phenomenon, macro dynamics calculations are carried out. The results show that Co‐HSs can promote the circulation of lattice oxygen and reactive oxygen species and the multidimensional diffusion of NH 3 in an oxygen‐rich environment. This material has significant potential for application in the fields of thermal catalysis and ammonia oxidation.
