J Colloid Interface Sci 2025; 677:68-78. [PMID: 39083893 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.07.198] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 07/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/24/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
Carbon/metal composites derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted widespread attention due to their excellent electronic conductivity, adjustable porosity, and outstanding stability. However, traditional synthesis methods are limited by the dense stereo geometry and large crystal grain size of MOFs, resulting in many metals active sites are buried in the carbon matrix. While the common strategy involves incorporating additional dispersed media into material, this leads to a decrease in practical metal content. In this study, nanosized copper-metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs) are in-situ grown on surface of carbon spheres by pre-anchoring copper ions, and the hybrid composite of porous carbon/copper oxide with high copper atom utilization rate is prepared through activation and pyrolysis methods. This strategy effectively addresses the issue of insufficient exposure of metal sites, and the obtained composite material exhibits high effective copper atom utilization rate, large specific surface area (2052.3 m2·g-1), diverse pore structure, outstanding specific capacity (1076.5F·g-1 at 0.5 A·g-1), and excellent cycle stability. Furthermore, this highly atom-economical universal method has positive significance in application fields of catalysis, energy storage, and adsorption.

Abstract
Although synthesis and design of MOFs are crucial factors to the successful implementation of targeted applications, there is still lack of knowledge among researchers about the synthesis of MOFs and their derived composites for practical applications. For example, many researchers manipulate study results, and it has become quite difficult to quit this habit specifically among the young researchers Undoubtedly, MOFs have become an excellent class of compounds but there are many challenges associated with their improvement to attain diverse applications. It has been noted that MOF-derived materials have gained considerable interest owing to their unique chemical properties. These compounds have exhibited excellent potential in various sectors such as energy, catalysis, sensing and environmental applications. It is worth mentioning that most of the researchers rely on commercially available MOFs for use as precursor supports, but it is an unethical and wrong practice because it prevents the exploration of the hidden diversity of similar materials. The reported studies have significant gaps and flaws, they do not have enough details about the exact parameters used for the synthesis of MOFs and their derived materials. For example, many young researchers claim that MOF-based materials cannot be synthesized as per the reported instructions for large-scale implementation. In this regard, current article provides a comprehensive review of the most recent advancements in the design of MOF-derived materials. The methodologies and applications have been evaluated together with their advantages and drawbacks. Additionally, this review suggests important precautions and solutions to overcome the drawbacks associated with their preparation. Applications of MOF-derived materials in the fields of energy, catalysis, sensing and environment have been discussed. No doubt, these materials have become excellent class but there are still many challenges ahead to specify it for the targeted applications.

Abstract
Metal telluride-based nanomaterials have recently gained attention as promising candidates for enhancing the performance of electrodes in energy storage devices. In this study, Co-Zr-Te@CuO electrode materials engineered through strategic approach are introduced, involving the deposition of a Co-Zr metal-organic framework (MOF) on CuO nanowires, followed by a tellurization. This composite material demonstrates an expanded potential window of 1.2 V, making it potential electrode material for supercapacitor applications. Electrochemical evaluations reveal that the Co-Zr-Te@CuO electrode exhibits 576 C g-1, 1.8 times higher than Co-Zr-MOF@CuO. Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) calculations confirm enhancements in conductivity and explains the synergistic effects present within the heterostructure. Hybrid supercapacitor (HSC) device achieves a peak energy density of 69.4 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 1.4 kW kg-1. This evidence of Co-Zr-Te@CuO effective electrode performance demonstrates its potential and robust stability for real-world energy storage applications.

Abstract
The application of homogeneous catalysts in water remediation is limited by their excessive chemical and energy input, weak regenerability, and potential leaching. Heterogeneous catalytic membranes (CMs) offer a new approach to facilitate efficient, selective, and continuous pollutant degradation. Thus, integrating membranes and continuous filtration with heterogeneous advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) can promote thermodynamic and kinetic mass transfers in spatially confined intrapores and facilitate diffusion-reaction processes. Despite the remarkable advantages of heterogeneous CMs, their engineering application is practically restricted due to the fuzzy design criteria for specific applications. Herein, the recent advances in CMs for advanced water remediation are critically reviewed and the design flow for tempospatially confined CMs is proposed. Further, state-of-the-art CM materials and their catalytic mechanisms are reviewed, after which the tempospatial confinement mechanisms comprising the nanoconfinement effect, interface effect, and kinetic mass transfer are emphasized, thus clarifying their roles in the construction and performance optimization of CMs. Additionally, the fabrication methods for CMs based on their catalysts and pore sizes are summarized and an overview of their application and performance evaluations is presented. Finally, future directions for CMs in materials research and water treatment, are presented.

Abstract
The electrochemical reduction of CO2 (ERCO2) has emerged as one of the most promising methods for achieving both renewable energy storage and CO2 recovery. However, achieving both high selectivity and stability of catalysts remains a significant challenge. To address this challenge, this study investigated the selective synthesis of formate via ERCO2 at the interface of In2O3 and Bi2O3 in the InBiO6 composite material. Moreover, InBiO6 was synthesized using indium-based metal-organic frameworks as precursor, which underwent continuous processing through ion exchange and thermal reduction. The results revealed that the formate Faradaic efficiency (FEformate) of InBiO6 reached nearly 100 % at -0.86 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) and remained above 90 % after continuous 317-h electrolysis, which exceeded those of previously reported indium-based catalysts. Additionally, the InBiO6 composite material exhibited an FEformate exceeding 80 % across a wide potential range of 500 mV from -0.76 to -1.26 V vs. RHE. Density-functional theory analysis confirmed that the heterogeneous interface of InBiO6 played a role in achieving optimal free energies for *OCHO on its surface. Furthermore, the addition of Bi to the InBiO6 matrix facilitated electron transfer and altered the electronic structure of In2O3, thereby enhancing the adsorption, decomposition, and formate production of *OCHO.

Abstract
Due to their facile tunability, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are employed as precursors and templates to construct advanced functional materials with unique and desired chemical, physical, mechanical, and morphological properties. By tuning MOF precursor composition and manipulating conversion processes, various MOF-derived materials commonly known as MOF derivatives can be constructed. The possibility of controlled and predictable properties makes MOF derivatives a preferred choice for numerous advanced technological applications. The innovative synthetic designs besides the plethora of interdisciplinary characterization approaches applicable to MOF derivatives provide the opportunity to perform a myriad of experiments to explore the performance and offer key insight to develop the next generation of advanced materials. Though there are many published works of literature describing various synthesis and characterization techniques of MOF derivatives, it is still not clear how the synthesis mechanism works and what are the best techniques to characterize these materials to probe their properties accurately. In this review, the recent development in synthesis techniques and mechanisms for a variety of MOF derivates such as MOF-derived metal oxides, porous carbon, composites/hybrids, and sulfides is summarized. Furthermore, the details of characterization techniques and fundamental working principles are summarized to probe the structural, mechanical, physiochemical, electrochemical, and electronic properties of MOF and MOF derivatives. The future trends and some remaining challenges in the synthesis and characterization of MOF derivatives are also discussed.

Abstract
Capacitive storage devices allow for fast charge and discharge cycles, making them the perfect complements to batteries for high power applications. Many materials display interesting capacitive properties when they are put in contact with ionic solutions despite their very different structures and (surface) reactivity. Among them, nanocarbons are the most important for practical applications, but many nanomaterials have recently emerged, such as conductive metal-organic frameworks, 2D materials, and a wide variety of metal oxides. These heterogeneous and complex electrode materials are difficult to model with conventional approaches. However, the development of computational methods, the incorporation of machine learning techniques, and the increasing power in high performance computing now allow us to tackle these types of systems. In this Review, we summarize the current efforts in this direction. We show that depending on the nature of the materials and of the charging mechanisms, different methods, or combinations of them, can provide desirable atomic-scale insight on the interactions at play. We mainly focus on two important aspects: (i) the study of ion adsorption in complex nanoporous materials, which require the extension of constant potential molecular dynamics to multicomponent systems, and (ii) the characterization of Faradaic processes in pseudocapacitors, that involves the use of electronic structure-based methods. We also discuss how recently developed simulation methods will allow bridges to be made between double-layer capacitors and pseudocapacitors for future high power electricity storage devices.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are one of the most promising hydrogen-storing materials due to their rich specific surface area, adjustable topological and pore structures, and modified functional groups. In this work, we developed automatically parallel computational workflows for high-throughput screening of ∼11,600 MOFs from the CoRE database and discovered 69 top-performing MOF candidates with work capacity greater than 1.00 wt % at 298.5 K and a pressure swing between 100 and 0.1 bar, which is at least twice that of MOF-5. In particular, ZITRUP, OQFAJ01, WANHOL, and VATYIZ showed excellent hydrogen storage performance of 4.48, 3.16, 2.19, and 2.16 wt %. We specifically analyzed the relationship between pore-limiting diameter, largest cavity diameter, void fraction, open metal sites, metal elements or nonmetallic atomic elements, and deliverable capacity and found that not only geometrical and physical features of crystalline but also chemical properties of adsorbate sites determined the H2 storage capacity of MOFs at room temperature. It is highlighted that we first proposed the modified crystal graph convolutional neural networks by incorporating the obtained geometrical and physical features into the convolutional high-dimensional feature vectors of period crystal structures for predicting H2 storage performance, which can improve the prediction accuracy of the neural network from the former mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.064 wt % to the current MAE of 0.047 wt % and shorten the consuming time to about 10-4 times of high-throughput computational screening. This work opens a new avenue toward high-throughput screening of MOFs for H2 adsorption capacity, which can be extended for the screening and discovery of other functional materials.

Abstract
Two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks (2D-MOFs) represent a category of atomically thin materials that combine the structural tunability of molecular systems with the crystalline structure characteristic of solids. The strong bonding between the organic linkers and transition metal centers is expected to result in delocalized electronic states. However, it remains largely unknown how the band structure in 2D-MOFs emerges through the coupling of electronic states in the building blocks. Here, we demonstrate the on-surface synthesis of a 2D-MOF exhibiting prominent π-conjugation. Through a combined experimental and theoretical approach, we provide direct evidence of band structure formation upon hierarchical self-assembly, going from metal-organic complexes to a conjugated two-dimensional framework. Additionally, we identify the robustly dispersive nature of the emerging hybrid states, irrespective of the metallic support type, highlighting the tunability of the band structure through charge transfer from the substrate. Our findings encourage the exploration of band-structure engineering in 2D-MOFs for potential applications in electronics and photonics.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), with their tunable pore sizes and high surface areas, are gaining prominence in Li metal battery applications, including their use as nanofillers in solid composite electrolytes (SCEs) for enhanced ionic conductivity. Yet, when used in SCEs, individual dispersed MOF particles in isolation as nanofillers can impede efficient ion transport in all-solid-state batteries due to the insufficient supply of ionic transport pathways within SCEs. Here, we introduced a continuous SCE nanofiller with long-range assembly interconnected porous MOFs (IMOF_SCE) for effective ion transport pathway supply along the interface between the nanofiller and the polymer matrix. IMOF_SCE achieved Li-ion conductivity (6.72 × 10-5 S cm-1 at 20 °C) and Li-ion transference number (tLi+ = 0.855), resulting in the improved electrochemical performance of Li metal batteries. Additionally, the Li/LiFePO4 full cell integrated with IMOF_SCE achieved an outstanding stable capacity retention of 98.8% in 300 cycles. This work offers insights into the design strategy of effective nanofillers for SCEs and can be adapted for other porous materials.

Abstract
Three-dimensional interconnected nickel-cobalt layered double hydroxides (NiCo-LDHs) were prepared on nickel foam by ion exchange using a cobalt-based metal-organic framework (Co-MOF) as a template at different temperatures. The effects of the Co-MOF preparation temperature on the growth, mass, morphology, and electrochemical properties of the Co-MOF and derived NiCo-LDH samples were studied. The synthesis temperature from 30 to 50 °C gradually increased the mass of the active material and the thickness of the Co-MOF sheets grown on the nickel foam. The higher the temperature is, the larger the proportion of Co3+. β-Cobalt hydroxide (β-Co(OH)2) sheets were generated above 60 °C. The morphology and mass loading pattern of the derived flocculent layer clusters of NiCo-LDH were inherited from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The areal capacitance of NiCo-LDH shows an inverted U-shaped curve trend with increasing temperature. The electrode material synthesized at 50 °C had a tremendous specific capacitance of 7631 mF·cm-2 at a current density of 2 mA·cm-2. The asymmetric supercapacitor assembled with the sample and active carbon (AC) achieved an energy density of 55.0 Wh·kg-1 at a power density of 800.0 W·kg-1, demonstrating the great potential of the NiCo-LDH material for energy storage. This work presents a new strategy for designing and fabricating advanced green supercapacitor materials with large power and energy densities.

Abstract
Rutin extracted from natural plants has important medical value, so developing accurate and sensitive quantitative detection methods is one of the most important tasks. In this work, HKUST-1@GN/MoO3-Ppy NWs were utilized to develop a high-performance rutin electrochemical sensor in virtue of its high conductivity and electrocatalytic activity. The morphology, crystal structure, and chemical element composition of the fabricated sensor composites were characterized by SEM, TEM, XPS, and XRD. Electrochemical techniques including EIS, CV, and DPV were used to investigate the electrocatalytic properties of the prepared materials. The electrochemical test conditions were optimized to achieve efficient detection of rutin. The 2-electron 2-proton mechanism, consisting of several rapid and sequential phases, is postulated to occur during rutin oxidation. The results show that HKUST-1@GN/MoO3-Ppy NWs have the characteristics of large specific surface area, excellent conductivity, and outstanding electrocatalytic ability. There is a significant linear relationship between rutin concentration and the oxidation peak current of DPV. The linear range is 0.50-2000 nM, and the limit of detection is 0.27 nM (S/N = 3). In addition, the prepared electrode has been confirmed to be useful for rutin analysis in orange juice.

Abstract
The rational design of highly active and low-cost electrode material is very promising for energy storage applications. The development of supercapacitors with high energy/power density is an imperative and challenging research objective. Herein, we report a highly facile synthesis approach for developing unique nano-porous hybrid NiCuMn oxyhydroxide architecture with remarkable electrochemical energy storage characteristics. The process involves dealloying of Ni15Cu15Mn70alloy in an oxygen rich environment, resulting in a uniform 3-dimensional flower like morphology. The dealloyed electrode demonstrates ultra-high specific capacitance of 4110 F cm-3at a high current density of 20 mA cm-2. A symmetric device exhibits a high volumetric capacitance of 365 F cm-3at a current density of 10 mA cm-2with a large potential window of 1.7 V. Even at very high-power density of 850 W l-1, the device exhibits a high energy density of 146 Wh l-1along with remarkable cyclic stability of 95.4% after 10 000 cycles. The superior performance of nano-porous hybrid NiCuMn oxyhydroxide architecture was attributed to its unique microstructure that provides high surface area, and marginal internal resistance ensuring rapid charge transport.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides, known as MXenes, have captured much attention for their excellent electrical conductivity and electrochemical capability. However, the susceptibility of MXenes to oxidation, particularly Ti3C2Tx transforming into titanium dioxide upon exposure to ambient air, hinders their utilization for extended operational life cycles. This work introduces a simple and straightforward method for producing ultrathin MXene electrode films tailored for energy storage applications, employing centrifugal-gravity force. Our approach significantly suppresses the oxidation phenomenon that arises in MXene materials and also effectively prevents the recrystallization of potentially residual LiF during the film formation. Additionally, the utilization of this MXene electrode in an all-solid-state microsupercapacitor (MSC) with an interdigitated pattern demonstrates an exceptionally improved and stable electrochemical performance. This includes a high volumetric capacitance of approximately 467 F cm-3, an energy density of around 65 mWh cm-3, and impressive long-term cycle stability, retaining about 94% capacity after 10 000 cycles. Moreover, a downsized MSC device exhibits remarkable mechanical durability, retaining over 98% capacity even when folded and sustaining stability over extended periods. Therefore, we believe that this study provides valuable insights for advancing highly integrated energy storage devices, ensuring exceptional electrochemical efficiency and prolonged functionality in diverse environments, whether ambient or humid.

Abstract
The electrochemical splitting of seawater is promising but also challenging for sustainable hydrogen gas production. Herein, ZIF-67 nanosheets are grown on nickel foam and then etched by Ni2+ in situ to obtain a hierarchical hollow nanosheets structure, which demonstrates outstanding OER performance in alkaline seawater (355 mV at 100 mA cm-2). Diven by a silicon solar panel, an overall electrolysis energy efficiency of 62% is achieved at a high current of 100 mA cm-2 in seawater electrolytes.

Abstract
In this work, a novel high entropy hydroxide NiCoMoMnZn-layered double hydroxide(LDH) is synthesized as an electrode material for supercapacitors using a novel template re-etching method to promote the energy density. As a positive electrode material for supercapacitors, NiCoMoMnZn-LDH has the advantage of a uniform distribution of elements, high specific surface area, porous and stable structure. More importantly, the specific capacitance can reach 1810.2 F g-1 at the current density of 0.5 A g-1, and the NiCoMoMnZn-LDH//AC HSC assembled from the material has an energy density of up to 62.1 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 475 W kg-1. Moreover, the influence of different compositions on their morphological, structural, and electrochemical properties is investigated based on the characterization results. Then, the synergistic mechanism among the components of the high entropy NiCoMoMnZn-LDH is revealed in detail by DFT calculations. In addition, the synthesis strategy proposed in this work for high-entropy hydroxides exhibits universality. Experimental results show that the proposed strategy successfully avoids not only phase separation and element aggregation in the formation of high entropy materials, but also reduces structural distortion, which is beneficial for efficient and large-scale synthesis of high entropy hydroxides.

Abstract
As the most widely used metal material in supercapacitors, manganese (Mn)-based materials possess the merits of high theoretical capacitance, stable structure as well as environmental friendliness. However, due to poor conductivity and easy accumulation, the practical capacitance of Mn-based materials is far lower than that of theoretical value. Therefore, accurate structural adjustment and controllable strategies are urgently needed to optimize the electrochemical properties of Mn-based materials. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous materials with high specific surface area (SSA), tunable pore size, and controllable structure. These features make them attractive as precursors or scaffold for the synthesis of metal-based materials and composites, which are important for electrochemical energy storage applications. Therefore, a timely and comprehensive review on the classification, design, preparation and application of Mn-based MOFs and their derivatives for supercapacitors has been given in this paper. The recent advancement of Mn-based MOFs and their derivatives applied in supercapacitor electrodes are particularly highlighted. Finally, the challenges faced by Mn-MOFs and their derivatives for supercapacitors are summarized, and strategies to further improve their performance are proposed. The aspiration is that this review will serve as a beneficial compass, guiding the logical creation of Mn-based MOFs and their derivatives in the future.

Abstract
The structural knowledge of metal-organic frameworks is crucial to the understanding and development of new efficient materials for industrial implementation. This review classifies and discusses recent advanced literature reports on phase transitions that occur during thermal treatments on metal-organic frameworks and their characterisation. Thermally activated phase transitions and procceses are classified according to the temperaturatures at which they occur: high temperature (reversible and non-reversible) and low temperature. In addition, theoretical calculations and modelling approaches employed to better understand these structural phase transitions are also reviewed.

Abstract
A MOF-MXene-BN three-component heterostructure exhibits impressive pseudocapacitive behavior with fast charge injection facilitated by an ultrathin dielectric h-BN. To address the MOF's low electronic conductivity, a 2D NiCo-MOF is grown on MXene nanosheets, enhancing conductivity and providing abundant redox-active sites. BN (boron nitride) serves a dual purpose, preventing restacking and facilitating charge injection toward NiCo-MOF. Synergistic contributions of 2D materials and a heterostructure with favorable charge injection dynamics among MOF, MXene, and BN contribute to enhanced electrochemical performance. Charge transfer mechanisms are elucidated using distribution of relaxation time technique to analyze complex EIS data and to differentiate electrode kinetics based on their respective relaxation time constants. An asymmetric supercapacitor, MOF-MXene-BN//activated carbon, achieves a specific capacity of 798 C/g, an energy density of 81 Wh/kg at 365 W/kg, and 81% capacitance retention over 5,000 cycles.

Abstract
In this study, we adopt density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the structural and electronic properties of monolayer and bilayer 2-D porphyrin sheets (PS) of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) upon interaction with Li atoms as an electrode material for Li-ion batteries. Based on their mechanical properties, our systems exhibit remarkable stability. The adsorption of Li at various sites in the monolayer, including over and between the bilayers of PS, is investigated. Our results indicate that Li at site S3 has the highest adsorption energy, and Li is energetically preferred to intercalate within the bilayer rather than monolayers due to its high adsorption energies. Notably, the charge transfer remains consistent for both systems. The density of state distribution, charge density difference plots, spin density and the band structure results show that the PS has high electrical conductivity. Additionally, the reaction potential was carried out, and the negative reaction potential results demonstrate that the system undergoes a reduction reaction. The resultant theoretical capacity and the open circuit voltage highlight that the PS materials of COFs are an important step for use in the next generation high-performance lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Advancements in sensor technology have significantly enhanced atmospheric monitoring. Notably, metal oxide and carbon (MOx/C) hybrids have gained attention for their exceptional sensitivity and room-temperature sensing performance. However, previous methods of synthesizing MOx/C composites suffer from problems, including inhomogeneity, aggregation, and challenges in micropatterning. Herein, we introduce a refined method that employs a metal-organic framework (MOF) as a precursor combined with direct laser writing. The inherent structure of MOFs ensures a uniform distribution of metal ions and organic linkers, yielding homogeneous MOx/C structures. The laser processing facilitates precise micropatterning (< 2 μm, comparable to typical photolithography) of the MOx/C crystals. The optimized MOF-derived MOx/C sensor rapidly detected ethanol gas even at room temperature (105 and 18 s for response and recovery, respectively), with a broad range of sensing performance from 170 to 3,400 ppm and a high response value of up to 3,500%. Additionally, this sensor exhibited enhanced stability and thermal resilience compared to previous MOF-based counterparts. This research opens up promising avenues for practical applications in MOF-derived sensing devices.

Abstract
Solid proton electrolytes play a crucial role in various electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices. However, the development of fast proton conducting solid proton electrolytes at ambient conditions remains a significant challenge. In this study, a novel acidified nitrogen self-doped porous carbon material is presented that demonstrates exceptional superprotonic conduction for applications in solid-state proton battery. The material, designated as MSA@ZIF-8-C, is synthesized through the acidification of nitrogen-doped porous carbon, specifically by integrating methanesulfonic acid (MSA) into zeolitic imidazolate framework-derived nitrogen self-doped porous carbons (ZIF-8-C). This study reveals that MSA@ZIF-8-C achieves a record-high proton conductivity beyond 10-2 S cm-1 at ambient condition, along with good long-term stability, positioning it as a cutting-edge alternative solid proton electrolyte to the default aqueous H2 SO4 electrolyte in proton batteries.

Abstract
Supercapacitors (SCs) have the advantages of high power density, long cycle life, and fast charging/discharging rates, but relatively low energy density limits their practical application prospects. The key to improving the energy density of supercapacitors is to develop electrode materials with excellent performance. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) used for electrochemical energy storage have emerged as a research hotspot due to their adjustable microstructure, porosity, and high specific surface area. To address the demands of high-performance supercapacitors, composite nanomaterials can be prepared by rationally designing MOFs. Herein, CoNi-MOF nano-blocks are grown on the carbon cloth, and ultrathin NiMo layered double hydroxides (NiMo-LDH) nanosheets are further anchored on its surfaces to form a honeycomb porous heterostructure (NiMo-LDH@CoNi-MOF). The porous heterostructures increase the electrochemically active specific surface area and shorten the charge transfer distance, possessing ultra-high capacitance of 15.6 F/cm2 at 1 mA/cm2. Furthermore, utilizing annealed activated carbon cloth (AAC) as the negative electrode, the assembled NiMo-LDH@CoNi-MOF-2//AAC asymmetric supercapacitor possesses an energy density of 1.10 mWh/cm2 at a power density of 4 mW/cm2, and a capacitance retention of 97.8 % after 10,000 cycles. This material exhibits distinctive nanostructures and favorable electrochemical characteristics, providing a unique idea for preparing supercapacitors with high energy density and power density.

Abstract
The development of structurally stable, highly conductive layered materials as cathode materials for aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) is essential. Herein, polyaniline (PANI) was inserted into the interlayer of a vanadium-metal-organic framework-derived V2O5 to take advantage of the selective growth of the (110) crystal plane of V2O5, facilitating sufficient diffusion of aniline within the V2O5 interlayer along the vertical direction of the spatial c-axis while stabilizing the interlayer structure. The synthesized composite (PANI80-V2O5) exhibited excellent electrochemical properties owing to the increase in the material layer spacing from 5.76 Å to 14.31 Å and the strong synergistic effect of the oxygen vacancies and large specific surface area of the material. In addition, the π-conjugated structure of PANI prevented the active material from dissolving in the electrolyte, further stabilizing its lamellar structure, which tended to collapse during electrochemical cycling. The PANI80-V2O5 electrode exhibited an ultrahigh discharge capacity of 516.90 mAh g-1 at a current density of 0.1 A g-1. Moreover, it exhibited a discharge capacity of 268.80 mAh g-1 at a current density of 10 A g-1 and a capacity retention rate of 97.77% after 3000 cycles. Therefore, this study provided a reference for developing structurally superior cathode materials for AZIBs.

Abstract
In recent years, flexible and wearable electronics such as smart cards, smart fabrics, bio-sensors, soft robotics, and internet-linked electronics have impacted our lives. In order to meet the requirements of more flexible and adaptable paradigm shifts, wearable products may need to be seamlessly integrated. A great deal of effort has been made in the last two decades to develop flexible lithium-ion batteries (FLIBs). The selection of suitable flexible materials is important for the development of flexible electrolytes self-supported and supported electrodes. This review is focused on the critical discussion of the factors that evaluate the flexibility of the materials and their potential path toward achieving the FLIBs. Following this analysis, we present how to evaluate the flexibility of the battery materials and FLIBs. We describe the chemistry of carbon-based materials, covalent-organic frameworks (COFs), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and MXene-based materials and their flexible cell design that represented excellent electrochemical performances during bending. Furthermore, the application of state-of-the-art solid polymer and solid electrolytes to accelerate the development of FLIBs is introduced. Analyzing the contributions and developments of different countries has also been highlighted in the past decade. In addition, the prospects and potential of flexible materials and their engineering are also discussed, providing the roadmap for further developments in this fast-evolving field of FLIB research.

Abstract
Gas sensors with exceptional sensitivity and selectivity are vital in the real-time surveillance of noxious and harmful gases. Despite this, traditional gas sensing materials still face a number of challenges, such as poor selectivity, insufficient detection limits, and short lifespan. Metal oxides, which are derived from metal-organic framework materials (MOFs), have been widely used in the field of gas sensors because they have a high surface area and large pore volume. Incorporating metal oxides derived from MOFs into gas sensors can improve their sensitivity and selectivity, thus opening up new possibilities for the development of innovative, high-performance gas sensors. This article examines the gas sensing process of metal oxide semiconductors (MOS), evaluates the advances made in the research of different structures of MOF-derived metal oxides in resistive gas sensors, and provides information on their potential applications and future advancements.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline materials with permanent pores constructed by the self-assembly of organic ligands and metal clusters through coordination bonds. Due to their diversity and tunability, MOFs are used as precursors to be converted into other types of functional materials by pyrolytic recrystallization. Laser-induced synthesis is proven to be a powerful pyrolytic processing technique with fast and accurate laser irradiation, low loss, high efficiency, selectivity, and programmability, which endow MOF derivatives with new features. Laser-induced MOF derivatives exhibit high versatility in multidisciplinary research fields. In this review, first, the basic principles of laser smelting and the types of materials for laser preparation of MOF derivatives are briefly introduced. Subsequently, it is focused on the peculiarity of the engineering of structural defects and their applications in catalysis, environmental protection, and energy fields. Finally, the challenges and opportunities at the current stage are highlighted with the aim of elucidating the future direction of the rapidly growing field of laser-induced synthesis of MOF derivatives.

Abstract
The design and synthesis of electrically conductive coordination polymers (CPs) are of special interest due to their applications in the fabrication of many environmentally benign emerging technologies, such as molecular wires, photovoltaic cells, light emitting diodes (LEDs), field effect transistors (FETs) and Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs). Owing to their structural flexibility, easy functionality and adjustable energy levels, CPs are promising candidates for providing a better pathway for superior charge transport. Again, the utilization of visible light as an external stimulus to control and manoeuvre the electrical properties of the CPs is exceptionally motivating for the development of many optoelectronic devices, such as photodetectors, photo-switches, photodiodes and chemiresistive sensors. The applications of such materials in devices will solve questions regarding the energy crisis and environmental concerns. This study provides an overview of the recent advances in the development of photo-responsive CPs and the possibility of their application in developing optoelectronic devices. In this regard, a thorough literature survey was performed and the studies related to the fabrication of photosensitive conducting CPs for applications in optoelectronic devices are listed.

Abstract
The synthesis of large-scale 2D conductive metal-organic framework films with tunable thickness is highly desirable but challenging. In this study, an Interface Confinement Self-Assembly Pulling (ICSP) method for in situ synthesis of 4-in. Ni-BHT film on the substrate surface is developed. By modulating the thickness of the confined space, the thickness of Ni-BHT films could be easily varied from 4 to 42 nm. To eliminate interference factors and evaluate the effect of film thickness on the catalytic performance of HER, an electrocatalytic microdevice based on the Ni-BHT film is designed. The effective catalytic thickness of the Ni-BHT film is found to be around 32 nm. Finally, to prepare the electrocatalytic microdevice array, over 100 000 microdevices on a 4-in. Ni-BHT film are integrated. The results show that the microdevice array has good stability and a high hydrogen production rate and could be used to produce large amounts of hydrogen. The wafer-scale 2D conductive metal-organic framework's fabrication greatly advances the practical application of microdevices for massive hydrogen production.

Abstract
The sensing performances of gas sensors must be improved and diversified to enhance quality of life by ensuring health, safety, and convenience. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which exhibit an extremely high surface area, abundant porosity, and unique surface chemistry, provide a promising framework for facilitating gas-sensor innovations. Enhanced understanding of conduction mechanisms of MOFs has facilitated their use as gas-sensing materials, and various types of MOFs have been developed by examining the compositional and morphological dependences and implementing catalyst incorporation and light activation. Owing to their inherent separation and absorption properties and catalytic activity, MOFs are applied as molecular sieves, absorptive filtering layers, and heterogeneous catalysts. In addition, oxide- or carbon-based sensing materials with complex structures or catalytic composites can be derived by the appropriate post-treatment of MOFs. This review discusses the effective techniques to design optimal MOFs, in terms of computational screening and synthesis methods. Moreover, the mechanisms through which the distinctive functionalities of MOFs as sensing materials, heterostructures, and derivatives can be incorporated in gas-sensor applications are presented.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are proved to be good precursors to derive various nanomaterials with desirable functions, but so far the controllable synthesis of ordered mesoporous derivatives from MOFs has not been achieved. Herein, this work reports, for the first time, the construction of MOF-derived ordered mesoporous (OM) derivatives by developing a facile mesopore-inherited pyrolysis-oxidation strategy. This work demonstrates a particularly elegant example of this strategy, which involves the mesopore-inherited pyrolysis of OM-CeMOF into a OM-CeO2 @C composite, followed by the oxidation removal of its residual carbon, affording the corresponding OM-CeO2 . Furthermore, the good tunability of MOFs helps to allodially introduce zirconium into OM-CeO2 to regulate its acid-base property, thus boosting its catalytic activity for CO2 fixation. Impressively, the optimized Zr-doped OM-CeO2 can achieve above 16 times higher catalytic activity than its solid CeO2 counterpart, representing the first metal oxide-based catalyst to realize the complete cycloaddition of epichlorohydrin with CO2 under ambient temperature and pressure. This study not only develops a new MOF-based platform for enriching the family of ordered mesoporous nanomaterials, but also demonstrates an ambient catalytic system for CO2 fixation.

Abstract
To meet the energy demand of modern civilization, efforts to find renewable, safe, and highly effective fuel generation are still a big challenge. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is one of many modern technologies for hydrogen generation, and a number of new electrode materials have been created to increase the effectiveness of O2 evolution. This project utilizes a range of high performance nanomaterials, such as Pr-MOF, Fe2O3, and Pr-MOF/Fe2O3, to carry out the oxygen evolution reaction. This study shows that Pr-MOF/Fe2O3 exhibits exceptional electrocatalytic activity in alkaline solution with 238 mV overpotential at the current density of 10 mA cm-2 and a Tafel slope of 37 mV dec-1 which is much lower when compared to pure Pr-MOF and Fe2O3. The enhanced electrochemical results are due to the higher electrochemical surface area of 237 cm2. This work will lay the foundation for an approach to enhance the crystalline nature of surface-active nanoparticles made from rare earth MOFs for a range of electrochemical energy applications.

Abstract
Ultra-high energy density battery-type materials are promising candidates for supercapacitors (SCs); however, slow ion kinetics and significant volume expansion remain major barriers to their practical applications. To address these issues, hierarchical lattice distorted α-/γ-MnS@Cox Sy core-shell heterostructure constrained in the sulphur (S), nitrogen (N) co-doped carbon (C) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) derived nanosheets (α-/γ-MnS@Cox Sy @N, SC) have been developed. The coordination bonding among Cox Sy , and α-/γ-MnS nanoparticles at the interfaces and the π-π stacking interactions developed across α-/γ-MnS@Cox Sy and N, SC restrict volume expansion during cycling. Furthermore, the porous lattice distorted heteroatom-enriched nanosheets contain a sufficient number of active sites to allow for efficient electron transportation. Density functional theory (DFT) confirms the significant change in electronic states caused by heteroatom doping and the formation of core-shell structures, which provide more accessible species with excellent interlayer and interparticle conductivity, resulting in increased electrical conductivity. . The α-/γ-MnS@Cox Sy @N, SC electrode exhibits an excellent specific capacity of 277 mA hg-1 and cycling stability over 23 600 cycles. A quasi-solid-state flexible extrinsic pseudocapacitor (QFEPs) assembled using layer-by-layer deposited multi-walled carbon nanotube/Ti3 C2 TX nanocomposite negative electrode. QFEPs deliver specific energy of 64.8 Wh kg-1 (1.62 mWh cm-3 ) at a power of 933 W kg-1 and 92% capacitance retention over 5000 cycles.

Abstract
As an emerging class of 2D materials, MXene exhibits broad prospects in the field of supercapacitors (SCs). However, the working voltage of MXene-based SCs is relatively limited (typically ≤ 0.6 V) due to the oxidation of MXene electrode and the decomposition of electrolyte, ultimately leading to low energy density of the device. To solve this issue, high-voltage MXene-based electrodes and corresponding matchable electrolytes are developed urgently to extend the voltage window of MXene-based SCs. Herein, a comprehensive overview and systematic discussion regarding the effects of electrolytes (aqueous, organic, and ionic liquid electrolytes), asymmetric device configuration, and material modification on the operating voltage of MXene-based SCs, is presented. A deep dive is taken into the latest advances in electrolyte design, structure regulation, and high-voltage mechanism of MXene-based SCs. Last, the future perspectives on high-voltage MXene-based SCs and their possible development directions are outlined and discussed in depth, providing new insights for the rational design and realization of advanced next-generation MXene-based electrodes and high-voltage electrolytes.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as excellent platforms possessing tunable and controllable optical behaviors that are essential in high-speed and multichannel data transmission in optical wireless communications (OWCs). Here, we demonstrate a novel approach to achieving a tunable wide modulation bandwidth and high net data rate by engineering a combination of organic linkers and metal clusters in MOFs. More specifically, two organic linkers of different emission colors, but equal molecular length and connectivity, are successfully coordinated by zirconium and hafnium oxy-hydroxy clusters to form the desired MOF structures. The precise change in the interactions between these different organic linkers and metal clusters enables control over fluorescence efficiency and excited state lifetime, leading to a tunable modulation bandwidth from 62.1 to 150.0 MHz and a net data rate from 303 to 363 Mb/s. The fabricated color converter MOFs display outstanding performance that competes, and in some instances surpasses, those of conventional materials commonly used in light converter devices. Moreover, these MOFs show high practicality in color-pure wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM), which significantly improved the data transmission link capacity and security by the contemporary combining of two different data signals in the same path. This work highlights the potential of engineered MOFs as a game-changer in OWCs, with significant implications for future high-speed and secure data transmission.

Abstract
Diflubenzuron is widely used as a benzoylurea insecticide, and its impact on human health should not be underestimated. Therefore, the detection of its residues in food and the environment is crucial. In this paper, octahedral Cu-BTB was fabricated using a simple hydrothermal method. It served as a precursor for synthesizing Cu/Cu2O/CuO@C with a core-shell structure through annealing, creating an electrochemical sensor for the detection of diflubenzuron. The response of Cu/Cu2O/CuO@C/GCE, expressed as ΔI/I0 exhibited a linear correlation with the logarithm of the diflubenzuron concentration ranging from 1.0 × 10-4 to 1.0 × 10-12 mol·L-1. The limit of detection (LOD) was determined to be 130 fM using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The electrochemical sensor demonstrated excellent stability, reproducibility, and anti-interference properties. Moreover, Cu/Cu2O/CuO@C/GCE was successfully employed to quantitatively determine diflubenzuron in actual food samples (tomato and cucumber) and environmental samples (Songhua River water, tap water, and local soil) with good recoveries. Finally, the possible mechanism of Cu/Cu2O/CuO@C/GCE for monitoring diflubenzuron was thoroughly investigated.

Abstract
The most prominent and highly visible advantage attributed to supercapacitors of any type and application, beyond their most notable feature of high current capability, is their high stability in terms of lifetime, number of possible charge/discharge cycles or other stability-related properties. Unfortunately, actual devices show more or less pronounced deterioration of performance parameters during time and use. Causes for this in the material and component levels, as well as on the device level, have only been addressed and discussed infrequently in published reports. The present review attempts a complete coverage on these levels; it adds in modelling approaches and provides suggestions for slowing down ag(e)ing and degradation.

Abstract
In recent years, with pressing needs such as diabetes management, the detection of glucose in various substrates has attracted unprecedented interest from researchers in academia and industry. As a relatively new glucose sensor, non-enzymatic target detection has the characteristics of high sensitivity, good stability and simple manufacturing process. However, it is urgent to explore novel materials with low cost, high stability and excellent performance to modify electrodes. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their composites have the advantages of large surface area, high porosity and high catalytic efficiency, which can be utilized as excellent materials for electrode modification of non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensors. However, MOFs and their composites still face various challenges and difficulties that limit their further commercialization. This review introduces the applications and the challenges of MOFs and their composites in non-enzymatic electrochemical glucose sensors. Finally, an outlook on the development of MOFs and their composites is also presented.

Abstract
Stretchable and conductive hydrogels are rapidly emerging as new generation candidates for wearable devices. However, the poor electroactivity and bioadhesiveness of traditional conductive hydrogels has limited their applications. Herein, a mussel-inspired strategy is proposed to prepare a specific core-shell redox-active system, consisting of a polydopamine (PDA) modified zeolitic imidazolate framework 71 (ZIF-71) core, and a poly 3,4-ethylenedioxythiopene (PEDOT) shell. Owing to the abundant catechol groups, PEDOT can be assembled on the surface of ZIF-71 to create a redox-active system. The core-shell nanoparticles could act as a redox-active nanofiller to develop a conductive polyacrylamide (PAM) hydrogel with energy-storage properties. The core-shell PEDOT@PZIF-71 system provides a mussel-inspired environment in the hydrogel matrix and endows the hydrogel with stretchability and adhesiveness. The hydrogel can be applied as a functional electrode for both bioelectronics and supercapacitors. Moreover, this hydrogel exhibits favorable biocompatibility and can be implanted in vivo for biosignal measurement without causing inflammation. This redox-active core-shell PEDOT@PZIF-71 system provides a promising strategy for the design of hydrogel-based wearable electronic devices.

Abstract
Vacancies are ubiquitous in nature, usually playing an important role in determining how a material behaves, both physically and chemically. As a consequence, researchers have introduced oxygen, sulphur and other vacancies into bi-dimensional (2D) materials, with the aim of achieving high performance electrodes for electrochemical energy storage. In this article, we focused on the recent advances in vacancy engineering of 2D materials for energy storage applications (supercapacitors and secondary batteries). Vacancy defects can effectively modify the electronic characteristics of 2D materials, enhancing the charge-transfer processes/reactions. These atomic-scale defects can also serve as extra host sites for inserted protons or small cations, allowing easier ion diffusion during their operation as electrodes in supercapacitors and secondary batteries. From the viewpoint of materials science, this article summarises recent developments in the exploitation of vacancies (which are surface defects, for these materials), including various defect creation approaches and cutting-edge techniques for detection of vacancies. The crucial role of defects for improvement in the energy storage performance of 2D electrode materials in electrochemical devices has also been highlighted.

Sci Rep 2023; 13:6975. [PMID: 37117400 PMCID: PMC10147619 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-34274-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2022] [Accepted: 04/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Developing a cost-effective pseudocapacitor electrode manufacturing process incorporating binder-free, green synthesis methods and single-step fabrication is crucial in advancing supercapacitor research. This study aims to address this pressing issue and contribute to the ongoing efforts in the field by introducing ULPING (Ultra-short Laser Pulse for In-situ Nanostructure Generation) technique for effective design. Laser irradiation was conducted in ambient conditions to form a CuO/NiO hybrid structure providing a synergistic contribution to the electrical behavior of the electrode. Mainly, the effects of surface morphology and electrochemical surface because of tuning laser intensity were analyzed. The samples demonstrated high oxide formation, fiber generation, excellent porosity, and ease of ion accessibility. Owing to a less than 10-min binder-free fabrication method, the electrochemical performance of the as-fabricated electrode was 25.8 mC cm-2 at a current density of 1 mA cm-2 proved to be excellent. These excellent surface properties were possible by the simple working principle of pulsed laser irradiation in ambient conditions and smart tuning of the important laser parameters. The CuO/NiO electrode demonstrates excellent conductivity and rewarding cyclic stability of 83.33% after 8000 cycles. This study demonstrates the potential of the ULPING technique as a green and simple method for fabricating high-performance pseudocapacitor electrodes.

Abstract
Three-dimensional graphene (3DG)/metal-organic framework (MOF)-based composites have attracted more and more attention in the field of energy due to their unique hierarchical porous structure and properties. The combination of graphene with MOFs can not only effectively overcome the limitations of poor electrical conductivity and low stability of MOFs, but also prevent the aggregation and reaccumulation between graphene sheets. Moreover, 3DG/MOF composites can also be used as multifunctional precursors with adjustable structures and composition of derivatives, thus expanding their applications in the field of electrochemistry. This feature article elaborates the latest synthesis methods of 3DG/MOF composites and their derivatives, along with their applications in batteries, supercapacitors (SCs) and electrocatalysis. In addition, the current challenges and future prospects of 3DG/MOF-based composites are discussed.

Abstract
Solar-driven photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting is a promising approach toward sustainable hydrogen (H2 ) generation. However, the design and synthesis of efficient semiconductor photocatalysts via a facile method remains a significant challenge, especially p-n heterojunctions based on composite metal oxides. Herein, a MOF-on-MOF (metal-organic framework) template is employed as the precursor to synthesize In2 O3 /CuO p-n heterojunction composite. After incorporation of small amounts of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), the optimized PEC devices exhibited a maximum current density of 1.51 mA cm-2 (at 1.6 V vs RHE) under one sun illumination (AM 1.5G, 100 mW cm-2 ), which is approximately four times higher than that of the reference device based on only In2 O3 photoanodes. The improvement in the performance of these hybrid anodes is attributed to the presence of a p-n heterojunction that enhances the separation efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and suppresses charge recombination, as well as the presence of GNRs that can increase the conductivity by offering better path for electron transport, thus reducing the charge transfer resistance. The proposed MOF-derived In2 O3 /CuO p-n heterojunction composite is used to demonstrate a high-performance PEC device for hydrogen generation.

[PMID: 37049996 PMCID: PMC10096630 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28073234] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2023] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/01/2023] [Indexed: 04/08/2023] Open
Abstract
We have successfully synthesized two types of two-dimensional conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs), Py-BSU and TBN-BSU CMPs, by using the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction of BSU-Br2 (2,8-Dibromothianthrene-5,5′,10,10′-Tetraoxide) with Py-T (1,3,6,8-Tetraethynylpyrene) and TBN-T (2,7,10,15-Tetraethynyldibenzo[g,p]chrysene), respectively. We characterized the chemical structure, morphology, physical properties, and potential applications of these materials using various analytical instruments. Both Py-BSU and TBN-BSU CMPs showed high thermal stability with thermal decomposition temperatures (Td10) up to 371 °C and char yields close to 48 wt%, as determined by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). TBN-BSU CMPs exhibited a higher specific surface area and porosity of 391 m2 g−1 and 0.30 cm3 g−1, respectively, due to their large micropore and mesopore structure. These CMPs with extended π-conjugated frameworks and high surface areas are promising organic electroactive materials that can be used as electrode materials for supercapacitors (SCs) and gas adsorption. Our experimental results demonstrated that the TBN-BSU CMP electrode had better electrochemical characteristics with a longer discharge time course and a specific capacitance of 70 F g−1. Additionally, the electrode exhibited an excellent capacitance retention rate of 99.9% in the 2000-cycle stability test. The CO2 uptake capacity of TBN-BSU CMP and Py-BSU CMP were 1.60 and 1.45 mmol g−1, respectively, at 298 K and 1 bar. These results indicate that the BSU-based CMPs synthesized in this study have potential applications in electrical testing and CO2 capture.

Abstract
Interface engineering of heterostructures has proven a promising strategy to effectively modulate their physicochemical properties and further improve the electrochemical performance for various applications. In this context related research of the newly proposed amorphous-crystalline heterostructures have lately surged since they combine the superior advantages of amorphous- and crystalline-phase structures, showing unusual atomic arrangements in heterointerfaces. Nonetheless, there has been much less efforts in systematic analysis and summary of the amorphous-crystalline heterostructures to examine their complicated interfacial interactions and elusory active sites. The critical structure-activity correlation and electrocatalytic mechanism remain rather elusive. In this review, the recent advances of amorphous-crystalline heterostructures in electrochemical energy conversion and storage fields are amply discussed and presented, along with remarks on the challenges and perspectives. Initially, the fundamental characteristics of amorphous-crystalline heterostructures are introduced to provide scientific viewpoints for structural understanding. Subsequently, the superiorities and current achievements of amorphous-crystalline heterostructures as highly efficient electrocatalysts/electrodes for hydrogen evolution reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, supercapacitor, lithium-ion battery, and lithium-sulfur battery applications are elaborated. At the end of this review, future outlooks and opportunities on amorphous-crystalline heterostructures are also put forward to promote their further development and application in the field of clean energy.
