摘要

Cellulose-modified zeolitic imidazolate framework, denoted as CEL-67, is developed as a sustainable, multifunctional material that integrates low-permittivity dielectric behaviour with carbon dioxide capture within a single platform. Structural integrity of ZIF-67 is preserved upon cellulose functionalization, while hydroxy-rich insulating interfaces suppress interfacial polarisation. Comprehensive structural, surface, and physicochemical characterization using FTIR, UV–visible spectroscopy, TG/DTG, PXRD, BET, XPS, SEM, and photoluminescence spectroscopy confirms the successful formation of the composite without structural degradation. CEL-67 exhibits a CO2 uptake of ~ 0.76 mmol g−1 at 298 K and 1 bar and ~ 0.80 mmol g−1 at 273 K, comparable to pristine ZIF-67 despite the surface area. Broadband dielectric performed over 1 Hz–106 Hz reveals a pronounced reduction in dielectric constant, dielectric loss, and loss tangent for CEL-67, particularly in the low-frequency regime. Electric modulus and conductivity analyses further demonstrate that dielectric relaxation in CEL-67 is governed by interfacial (Maxwell–Wagner–Sillars) polarization, resulting in enhanced dielectric stability and reduced energy dissipation. This study is presented as a proof-of-concept demonstrating how cellulose functionalization can balance dielectric stability and gas accessibility within a single MOF-based composite.
