Architectural Design and Microstructural Engineering of Metal-Organic Framework-Derived Nanomaterials for Electromagnetic Wave Absorption

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) derivatives are developing family of functional materials for electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption. Their tailored structures, controllable compositions, high porosity, and versatile functions offer immense advantages for the construction of excellent EMW absorption materials. Nevertheless, it is crucial and challenging to understand the unique role of rationally designing art and tailoring the microstructures of MOF-derived materials for EMW absorption. In this review, advances in rational architectural design strategy and the elaborate control of microstructures are outlined to promote the EMW absorption performance of MOF-derived materials. In addition, the derived key information regarding the superiority and composition-structure-performance relationships of the engineered MOF-derived materials with advanced components and nanostructures is comprehensively summarized. Finally, the insight into the challenges of future development in MOF-derived EMW absorption materials is presented.
