Abstract
We present a review of current research endeavors that merge relatively new chemical structures: metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), and one of the most studied and abundant molecules: cellulose. We analyze how cellulosic substrates have been modified to enable the growth of diverse MOFs, and we offer some insight on the myriad of applications for these new materials which include removal of pesticides, capture of pollutants, creation of antibacterial surfaces, decomposition of toxic compounds, selective gas adsorption and water purification. We believe that this unique combination between traditional and emerging materials—between natural and synthetic ones—can significantly expand the performance of cellulosic substrates.
