Worm-like mesoporous carbon synthesized from metal–organic coordination polymers for supercapacitors

Simple Preparation of Anatase Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles by Heating Titanium-Organic Frameworks

“…MIL-125 is the first porous MOF synthesized by Ti ions as metal ions, and formulated as Ti 8 O 8 (OH) 4 (BDC) 6 (BDC = benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate).…”

“…2 In contrast to using the precursors, thermal decomposition of MOFs themselves under inert atmosphere results in porous carbon on which metal or metal oxide nanoparticles are supported. [3][4][5][6][7][8] Similar thermal treatments in air makes the organic units completely burn off, and provide metal oxide nanoparticles as residues. This simple and straightforward process has been successfully applied for making various binary and tertiary nanoparticles such as ZnO, [8][9][10] Titanium dioxide can convert solar energy to generate electricity or can serve as a photocatalyst.…”

High rate performance activated carbons prepared from ginkgo shells for electrochemical supercapacitors

“…10a). The existence of a nearly vertical line on a Nyquist plot reflects a good capacitive performance of an electrode material [32]. The plot does not have a semicircle at high frequencies, implying the fast ion diffusion in the GGAC electrode.…”

Templated Synthesis for Nanoarchitectured Porous Materials

“…Besides FA, glycerol, carbon tetrachloride, ethylenediamine, and phenolic resin have been also employed as carbon sources with MOF-5. 318,319 A wide variety of MOFs, including MOF-5, Al-PCP, and zeolitic imidazolate frameworks-8 (ZIF-8), have been reported as promising carbon precursors for synthesizing high yielding NPCs, which showed promising properties for gas adsorption, electrochemical capacitance, sensing, and catalysis. 320324 Considering the large carbon content of organic components in MOFs or PCPs, additional carbon sources as additives are not always necessary.…”
