Application of MOFs-derived TMO/C in anode materials forlithium-ion batteries

The graphite as the commercial anode material for lithium-ion batteries shows the low specific capacity, which is difficult to meet the market demand. The metal-organic framework materials (MOFs) have the tunable structure, large surface area, and adjustable pore size, which can be used as the next generation of electrochemical energy storage devices, causing the extensive research. The synthesis of the metal (Fe, Co, Zn, Mn, Cu)-based metal organic frameworks and the derivatives were introduced in this paper, the research progress on the preparation of transition metal oxide (TMO)/C as the anode materials for lithium-ion batteries was focused, using MOFs as the precursors, and the development direction was prospected.
