Are bulk COFs good for energy storage & conversion?

Therefore, they have shown great potential in electrochemical energy storage (EES) and conversion (EEC). However, in bulk COFs, the defects always impede charge carrier conduction, and the difficulties in reaching deep-buried active sites by either electrons or ions lead to limited performance.

Who supports YG's research on energy storage?

Y.G.’s research on energy storage was supported through the Fluid Interface Reactions, Structures, and Transport (FIRST) Center, an Energy Frontier Research Center funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, and Office of Basic Energy Sciences. Competing interests: None declared.

Can redox-active conductive MOFs be used in energy-storage applications?

Furthermore, the HAB MOF electrodes exhibited highly reversible redox behaviours and good cycling stability with a capacitance retention of 90% after 12,000 cycles. These promising results demonstrate the potential of using redox-active conductive MOFs in energy-storage applications.

Can a temperature swing gas exfoliation transform bulk COFs to NSS?

A temperature-swing gas exfoliation approach also transforms bulk COFs to NSs in liquid. 142 Three azine-/imine-linked 2D COFs, NUS 30–32, were exfoliated by using this method. First, the bulk powder was heated to 300 °C for 10 min in air, and then immersed into liquid N 2 quickly (Fig. 9e).

Can nanomaterials improve the performance of energy storage devices?

The development of nanomaterials and their related processing into electrodes and devices can improve the performance and/or development of the existing energy storage systems. We provide a perspective on recent progress in the application of nanomaterials in energy storage devices, such as supercapacitors and batteries.

Is a Ni 3 conductive MOF suitable for double-layer capacitive energy storage?

Recently, an intrinsically conductive MOF demonstrated a stable electrochemical performance 13. The Ni 3 (HITP) 2 MOF was found to have large pore sizes and a high SSA and was therefore an excellent candidate for double-layer capacitive energy storage.
