Application of Metal-Organic Framework Materials in the Field of Energy Storage

Due to the characteristics of large specific surface area, porosity, adjustable structure and easy modification, metal-organic framework materials and their derivatives are widely used as electrode materials, separators, electrocatalysts and other energy storage materials. However, there are still many problems in the practical application of MOFs. This paper reviews the latest developments in the application of MOFs and their derived materials in energy storage devices such as alkali metal ion batteries, metal chalcogenide batteries, aqueous zinc ion batteries, and supercapacitors, and proposes design solutions for problems such as dendrite growth and shuttle effects that often occur in secondary batteries. In addition, the design ideas of MOFs-derived carbon material heterostructure and metal compound structure modification are also summarized. Finally, the intrinsic regulation of MOFs precursors and the modification strategies of derived materials are summarized and prospected.
