Abstract

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a type of materials that, because of their high contact area, controllable structures, and porous tone dimensions, have been attracted enormous attention over the past two decades. MOFs range from conventional gas separation and storage, drug distribution, sensors, and catalysis to modern technologies for energy storage, such as high-energy rechargeable battery power, and supercapacitors. High-energy batteries and high-power supercapacitors are critical for potential mobile devices, electric vehicles, unmanned aircraft, and so on. However, in particular, in electric fields, the insulating aspect of MOFs is often recognized as a limiting factor in the expansion of their applications. Specific functional or conducting materials were intercalated with MOFs because of these limitations, in order to improve their ability for such applications. In this context the uses of MOF-based materials for batteries and supercapacitors are discussed in this chapter.
