Abstract
Hydroxides exhibit a high theoretical capacity for energy storage by ion release and are often intercalated with anions to enhance the ion migration kinetics. In this study, a series of metal-hydroxide organic frameworks (MHOFs) are synthesized by intercalating aromatic organic linkers into hydroxides using I-M/Ni(OH)2 (where M = Co2+, Cu2+, Mg2+, Fe2+). The coordination environment and layer spacing (1.09 nm) of I-M/Ni(OH)2 are explored by X-ray absorption fine structure and cryo-electron microscopy. The intercalation nanostructure improves the conductivity of the hydroxides and facilitates Zn2+ migration by increasing the interlayer spacing, while enhancing the rate capability and cycling stability. Consequently, the I-Co/Ni(OH)2 material exhibites a satisfactory specific capacity of 0.35 mAh cm-2 at 3 mA cm-2 and a high peak power density of 6.78 mW cm-2. This study offers a novel perspective on the design of intercalated hydroxide and provides new insights into high-performance nickel-zinc batteres.
