pH-Responsive MOF Nanoparticles Equipped with Hydrophilic “Armor” Assist Fungicides in Controlling Peanut Southern Blight

The development of novel, safe, and efficient pest and disease control technologies for agricultural crops remains a pivotal area of research. In this study, by combining ZIF-8 and ZIF-90, a water-stable, pH-responsive bilayer MOF nanoparticle (NP) named Z8@Z90 was created, and tebuconazole (TEB) was added to form T@Z8@Z90, used for controlling peanut southern blight. The loading efficiency of TEB within the T@Z8@Z90 reached 26.15%, enabling rapid release in acidic environments triggered by oxalic acid (OA) secreted by
