Abstract

High porosity and surface area make metalorganic frameworks (MOFs) viable as electrodes in capacitive application. The MOFs have unique structures with the inorganic materials and are connected with the organic linkages. The facile synthesis processes, adjustable pore size with varying the experimental parameters, and morphological tailoring ability make the MOFs a better candidate for the capacitive applications. The metal/metal oxide functionalized derivatives of MOFs have better electrical properties in comparison to the pristine MOF. The functionalization of MOFs with the 2D materials, for example, transition metal di-chalcogenides, different conductive polymers, graphene, and graphene-related materials demonstrate improvement in the capacitive behavior. The present chapter focuses on recent developments in pristine and functionalized MOFs as electrode components in supercapacitors. The analogue variation in the capacitive properties such as specific capacitance, power density, high energy density, and cycle stability will be comprehensively discussed.
