Catalysts derived from Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOF) present a compelling blend of cost-effectiveness and superior performance in reduction reactions. In this study, polymer-decorated MOF-Cobalt (MOF-Co) was deposited onto porous magnesium oxide (MgO) layers, acquired through surface modification of AZ31 Mg alloy via plasma-assisted oxidation, with the aim of fabricating novel catalysts for reduction reactions.
