Provided are MOF-fabric composites having a crystalline MOF adhered directly to fibers of the fabric and methods of making MOF-fabric composites. A solution is adsorbed onto a fabric. The solution can include a metal salt, a linker, and a solvent. The solution is adsorbed onto the fabric and the fabric suspended over a heated vapor. The vapor releases onto the fabric, causing the metal salt, the linker, and the solvent to diffuse out of the polymer fibers. The linker links metal from the metal salts to form crystals attached to the fabric, and the vapor aids crystallization.

Embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to conductive textiles that include a textile component with a plurality of fibers; and metal-organic frameworks associated with the fibers of the textile component in the form of a conductive network. Metal-organic frameworks may have a two-dimensional structure and a crystalline form. Metal-organic frameworks may be conformally coated on the fibers of the textile component. Additional embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to methods of sensing an analyte in a sample by exposing the sample to a conductive textile; and detecting the presence or absence of the analyte by detecting a change in a property of the conductive textile, and correlating the change in the property to the presence or absence of the analyte. The analyte in the sample may reversibly associate with the conductive textile. The association may also result in filtration, pre-concentration, and capture of the analyte by the conductive textile.
