“…The prepared carbon nanorods and graphene nanoribbons exhibited excellent performances for supercapacitors. [17,[50][51][52][53][54][55] Presently, graphite can be utilized as a typical anode because of its low cost and efficient cycling performance. [48] Furthermore, they also fabricated high surface area (5500 m 2 g −1 ) NPCs by the direct calcination of Al-based porous coordination polymers (Al-PCP, (Al(OH)(1,4-NDC)·2H 2 O) under inert atmosphere.…”

batteries, sodium-selenium (Na-Se) batteries, Li-tellurium (Li-Te) batteries, and Na-S batteries) have their own distinctive applications due to their various characteristics. To explore new materials with high performance, large studies have been devoted to the development of nextgeneration batteries.Porous carbon (PC) materials possess many unique properties due to their large surface areas, high conductivity, large pore volumes, high thermal stability, and surface functionalities, [22][23][24] leading to their wide use in energy storage and conversion. Traditionally, PC can be obtained via various methods, such as the direct heat treatment of organic precursors, hard template or nanocast methods, and soft template methods. However, the production of PC from these methods cannot be scaled-up because of certain barriers (disordered structure with wide size distributions, complicated processes, etc.). [23,25,26] Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have drawn wide research interest as a novel class of porous materials that are crystalline materials consisting of metal ions and organic ligands. [4,21,[27][28][29][30][31] Since the report on the MOF-templated synthesis of PC in 2008, [32] a large number of studies have been reported on the use of MOFs as suitable precursors/templates for carbon synthesis. [22,26,[33][34][35] At present, a large number of studies indicate that zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), MOF-5, MIL-125 (Ti) (MIL = Materials of Institute Lavoisier), and ZIF-67 with excellent thermal stability and unique porous structures are the more commonly used MOF precursors (Scheme 1). [3,36,37] All of them, ZIF-8, possessing nitrogen-containing ligands, has high porosity and thermal stability. [38][39][40] MOF-5 possesses excellent thermal stability, high porosity, and so on. [41] MIL-125, an active photocatalyst, includes cyclic octamers of TiO 2 octahedra. [42,43] ZIF-67 has a tunable pore aperture, highly stable structure, and catalytic activity. [37,44,45] The above-mentioned MOFs have been widely used for gas adsorption, molecular separation, catalysis, batteries, supercapacitors, and so on. [13,14,33] Moreover, carbon hybrids containing nanostructured metal species (e.g., metal oxides (MOs)) are likely to form under in situ carbonization conditions. [46] Compared with the carbonaceous materials from conventional precursors, MOF-derived carbon materials have significant advantages with high specific surface areas, tailorable porosities, unique morphologies, and easy functionalization with other heteroatoms. [14,23,31] For example, Xu and co-workers [47] obtained 1D carbon nanorods via the pyrolysis The applications of carbon and carbon-based materials with high porosity, high surface area, and functionalities based on metal-organic framework precursors and/or templates have attracted significant research interest in recent years, particularly in the field of batteries. The chemical and physical properties of carbon and carbon-based materials obtained by the heat treatment of various metal-organic ...

For the first time, red‐blood‐cell‐like porous Mo2C@CNT microspheres are synthesized through a facile and scalable spray‐drying approach. As an anode for the lithium‐ion (Li‐ion) battery (LIB), the Mo2C@CNT hybrid demonstrates superior electrochemical performances with a high reversible capacity of 1065 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g−1, a large and stable capacity of 878 mAh g−1 even after 750 cycles at 1.6 A g−1, and large capabilities of 460 and 190 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles even at 8.0 and 16.0 A g−1, respectively, suggesting the outstanding long‐cycle high‐rate performance. The superior Li‐ion storage is attributed to the unique porous hierarchical structure, as constructed with Mo2C nanodots homogeneously and tightly anchored on a porous and highly conductive N‐doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) microspheric skeleton, which provides abundant electrochemically active sites and facilitates the electron and ion transportation. This work provides a novel, scalable, and cost‐effective route to the hybrid of transition‐metal‐based compounds and carbonaceous nanomaterials as high‐performance electrode for LIBs.
