Facile synthesis of hierarchically self-assembled dandelion-like microstructures of bimetallic-MOF as a novel electrode material for high-rate supercapacitors

Molybdenum-Based Electrode Materials Applied in High-Performance Supercapacitors

“…Consequently, researchers have devoted themselves to fabricating MOF materials with dual-metal sites to enhance performance through synergistic effects. Cai et al [103] manufactured a dandelion-like needle-shaped bimetallic MOF (BiMo-MOF) on nickel foam using an electrodeposition technique. This unique structure facilitates the rapid movement of electrolyte ions within the bimetallic MOF channel.…”

Direct Electrochemical Synthesis of Metal‐Organic Frameworks: Cu3(BTC)2 and Cu(TCPP) on Copper Thin films and Copper‐Based Microstructures

“…In addition to the clear advantages of producing new MOF materials as thin films, an increase in the development of nanoor microstructures with well-defined geometry (e. g. solid and hollow spheres, prisms, rods, wires and dendrites) has been reported in recent decades as a promising strategy to overcome the trade-off between a relatively lower amount of active sites of the catalytic material and a higher surface area per unit volume, resulting in an enhancement of its catalytic and physicochemical properties in this size regime. [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48] Furthermore, MOF-containing core-shell micro-and nanostructures have been proposed as multi-functional materials, with applications ranging from drug delivery platforms based on biocompatible MOFs [49] to enhanced supercapacitors [50,51] and electrocatalysts, [50] including engineered size-selective catalysts by the modulation of the pore aperture size of the MOF shell. [52,53] Despite the mentioned advantages, only a few MOFs have been synthesized as thin films or microstructures, especially when compared to the wide variety of reported MOF powders, and even fewer have been synthesized on transparent electrodes such as ITO.…”

A porous MOF-derived NiMn2O4 material and its superior energy storage performance for high-performance supercapacitors

“…Electrochemical methods have several advantages over others, including shorter synthesis times under mild conditions. 21 Such methods also provide the possibility to influence the reaction directly in real time, offering both more control and the ability to perform the synthesis in a continuous fashion. Furthermore, the localized nature of electrochemical methods allows the formation of directed thin films without the need to pre-treat the surface, as is usually the case.…”
