Research Progress of MOFs-Derived Nano-Electrode Materials for Supercapacitors

Abstract

Abstract: Supercapacitors have attracted much attention because of their high power density, fast charging/discharging speed, and long cycle life. However, the low energy density restricted their wide application. Developing novel and efficient electrode materials is imperative to improve the electrochemical performance of supercapacitors. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted extensive attention in the field of energy conversion and storage, owing to their large specific surface area, controllable pore size, rich active sites and easy synthesis. Nevertheless, due to the inferior structural stability and low conductivity of MOFs, the electrochemical performance of supercapacitors with MOFs electrode materials is unsatisfactory. MOFs derivatives, prepared from the MOFs precursor, possess excellent structural stability and conductivity, thus prominently improve the electrochemical performance of supercapacitors. This work mainly focuses on the MOFs-derived electrode materials for supercapacitors, including MOFs-derived carbides, oxides, hydroxides, phosphides and sulfides. The synthesis strategies of electrode materials for supercapacitors are discussed, providing guidance for the research of nano-MOFs-derived materials for supercapacitors.

Key words: supercapacitor, electrode material, MOF, derivative material, carbon material, strategy selection, structural modulation
