Metal-organic framework-derived bimetallic oxides as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries: a mini review

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received widespread attention for their large specific surface area, porous structure, and tunable particle size. MOFs can be utilized as precursors to prepare structurally diverse bimetallic oxides, which exhibit outstanding electrochemical properties as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). This paper introduces the study of MOF-derived bimetallic oxides as anode materials for LIBs, focusing on the application of MOF-derived manganese-, cobalt-, iron-, and vanadium-based bimetallic oxides in LIBs. MOF-derived bimetallic oxides, with the advantages of tunable compositions and nano-structures, are capable of further contributing to the enhancement of electrochemical performances. Finally, the problems of these derived materials in the application of LIBs are prospected, and reliable solutions and future development prospects are proposed. This review summarizes the MOF-derived bimetallic oxides as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries.
