Recent Progress in MOF‐Derived Porous Materials as Electrodes for High‐Performance Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Abstract

In recent years, metal‐organic frameworks, especially MOF‐based derivatives, have been regarded as one of the best candidate electrode materials for the next generation of advanced materials, due to high porosity, large surface area, modifiable functional groups as well as controllable chemical composition. This review presents the corresponding synthesis methods, structural design, and electrochemical performance of MOF‐derived materials, including metal oxides, metal sulfides, metal phosphides, and carbon materials, in high‐performance lithium‐ion batteries. Subsequently, the problems that exist in the current application of MOF‐based derivatives as electrodes in lithium‐ion batteries are discussed along with possible and feasible solutions. At last, some reasonable pathways and strategies for the design of MOF derivatives are also suggested.

Ammonia Synthesis via Electrocatalytic Nitrate Reduction Using NiCoO2 Nanoarrays on a Copper Foam

“…This modification facilitated electron transfer by creating unique O–Co and O–Fe bonds, which ultimately promoted the efficient conversion of nitrate. According to the literature, MOF-derived catalytic materials exhibit high reactivity and exceptional structural stability during catalytic reactions, making MOFs preferred precursors in numerous scientific investigations. − Huang et al studied the eNO 3 RR using three-dimensional (3D) flowerlike ZnCo 2 O 4 . Their study revealed that the Zn doping of ZnCo 2 O 4 promoted electron transfer from Co to Zn atoms, forming an electron-deficient Co active site that improved the adsorption of NO 3 – and consequently improved the catalytic performance of ZnCo 2 O 4 .…”

A two-dimensional cadmium-based metal–organic framework as an excellent probe: highly selective luminescent “turn on” detection of tetrahydrofuran and quantitative analysis of water

“…Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) containing organic ligands and metal nodes have been confirmed to have huge application potentials in energy, 10 catalysis, 11 gas separation, luminescent sensing, 12,13 and so on. 14,15 Among them, the luminescent MOFs can be used to detect different types of analytes because of the highly effective and contactless luminescent tests.…”

Ru-Doped Ni3Se4/NiSe/Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Nanotube Heterostructure for Lithium Storage

“…13 However, the drastic volume change not only suppresses Li + diffusion, but also leads to particle pulverization during the discharge/charge process, resulting in poor reversibility of the electrochemical reaction and serious capacity decay after long-term cycling. 14 Designing new MOF-based derivatives has been intensively proven to be an efficient approach to improve Li storage properties. 15−17 MOFs-derived metal alloy nanotubes via weaved organic ligands into hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks nanowires, which exhibits superior electrocatalysis in the hydrogen evolution reaction due to the tiny Ru doping effect.…”

“…These reports reveal that heterointerface structures can facilitate the transport of electrons/ions and enhance the electrochemical performance . However, the drastic volume change not only suppresses Li + diffusion, but also leads to particle pulverization during the discharge/charge process, resulting in poor reversibility of the electrochemical reaction and serious capacity decay after long-term cycling …”
