One-dimensional metal-organic frameworks for electrochemical applications

Adv Colloid Interface Sci. 2021 Nov 3;298:102562. doi: 10.1016/j.cis.2021.102562. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMetal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are as a category of crystalline porous materials. Extensive interest has been devoted to energy storage and energy conversion applications owing to their unique advantages of periodic architecture, high specific surface area, high adsorption, high conductivity, high specific capacitance, and high porosity. One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures have unique surface effects, easily regulated size, good agglutination of the substrate, and other distinct properties amenable to the field of energy storage and conversion. Therefore, 1D nanostructures could further improve the characteristic properties of MOFs, and it is of great importance for practical applications to control the size and morphological characteristics of MOFs. The electrochemical application of 1D MOFs is mainly discussed in this review, including energy storage applications in supercapacitors and batteries and energy conversion applications in catalysis. In addition, various synthesis strategies for 1D MOFs and their architectures are presented.PMID:34768137 | DOI:10.1016/j.cis.2021.102562
