A method for enhancing the conductivity of MOF-5 by the development of an MOF-5 polymer composite material. The composite material incorporates a conductive polymer, preferably polyaniline, in the solvo-thermal synthesis pathway of MOF-5. The electrically conductive MOF-5 composite exhibits electric conductivity three orders of magnitude higher than that of MOF-5 while maintaining the crystallinity, robustness, and thermal stability of MOF-5.

Conductivity enhancement of MOFs via development of MOFpolymer composite material

Electrodes comprising conducting graphite, paraffin oil pasting liquid, and a rare earth metal impregnated zeolite, such as lanthanum or cerium impregnated mordenite electrodes. Methods and voltammetric applications, such as square wave anodic stripping voltammetry, of these rare earth metal impregnated zeolite modified electrodes for the detection and quantification of heavy metal ions such as Pb(II) and Cd(II) in aqueous solutions.
