Design principles of MOF-related materials for highly stable metal anodes in secondary metal-based batteries

Comprehensive review onzinc‐ionbattery anode: Challenges and strategies

“…Generally, the design principles of anode materials include the following requirements: (a) provide a stable framework to support the long‐term plating/stripping cycles of zinc ions without collapse or critical shape change 59 ; (b) offer affluent interspace with interconnected tunnel pathways for fast transport and storage of ions and anions 60 ; (c) afford a large surface area with effective reactive sites to increase the contact area between the anode and electrolyte and induce uniform zinc deposition 61 ; (d) possess excellent conductivity and hydrophilicity to promote infiltration of the electrolyte and complete plating/stripping cycles 62 ; and (e) remain physically and chemically stable in acidic or alkaline electrolytes with the capability to form a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on the surface 63 . According to the above principles, we classify the structure design strategies of zinc anodes into three categories: (1) construction of three‐dimensional (3D) anodes, (2) fabrication of zinc alloy anodes, and (3) addition of additives to the anode.…”

Recent advances in oriented metal–organic frameworks for supercapacitive energy storage

“…The use of the MOF as an electrode material leads to critical problems such as low electrical conductivity, poor stability, and degraded electrochemical activity. 63 Modern-day researchers have identified that combining MOFs with pseudocapacitive/battery type materials can ameliorate the characteristics of individual compounds. Cao et al 64 first introduced the synthesis of the oriented composite (Co/Cu-MOF/Cu 2+1 O) with a better connection between the battery-type material and MOF.…”

“…22 Compared to conventional electrode materials, MOF-based electrodes have gained prominence as an emergent class of porous crystalline materials due to their fascinating structural features, high porosity, varied architectures, and tailored functionalities. 25 MOFs have found their widespread application in gas storage systems, 26 aqueous energy devices, 20,27–31 catalysis, 32 and so on.…”

Bismuth and its nanocomposite: Reaction mechanism and rational nanocomposite fabrication process for superior sodium‐ion battery anodes

“…36,37 Owing to the easy control of their chemical composition and structure, MOF-derived C-based framework nanocomposite materials can provide various benefits, such as a large surface area, robust structural stability, fast reaction kinetics, and high electrical conductivity; thus, they demonstrate an exceptional electrochemical performance. [38][39][40] In this study, the Na reaction pathway of Bi during sodiation/desodiation is demonstrated thoroughly using various cutting-edge ex situ analytical tools. Furthermore, two different types of Bi-based nanocomposite materials-namely, amorphous carbon (a-C)-modified Bi nanocomposite (Bi@a-C) fabricated via mechanical treatment and MOF-derived polyhedral Bi nanocomposite (p-Bi@C) fabricated via chemical treatment-are suggested as optimized Bi-based nanocomposite anodes for application to high-performance NIBs.…”

“…Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) constructed from metal ions/clusters and organic ligands have received considerable attention as precursors and templates for synthesizing C‐based framework nanocomposites 36,37 . Owing to the easy control of their chemical composition and structure, MOF‐derived C‐based framework nanocomposite materials can provide various benefits, such as a large surface area, robust structural stability, fast reaction kinetics, and high electrical conductivity; thus, they demonstrate an exceptional electrochemical performance 38‐40 …”
