Rational Design of Metal-Organic Framework-Based Materials for Advanced Li-S Batteries

摘要

Metal-organic framework(MOF)and their derivatives have been considered a promising material in the field of energy storage and conversion systems.Their distinct properties,including high porosity,tunable composition,and structure,enable the design of materials with tailored properties for achieving high performance.Lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries have several issues that prevent their broad application,including the low conductivity of sulfur,presence of soluble intermediates,and slow redox kinetics.MOF-based materials are a synthetic platform that is well positioned to mitigate these issues.This review highlights three essential function of Li-S batteries and classifies recently developed MOF-based materials with respect to these functions.The design principles identified by such function-based classification provide guidance and perspective to rationally design MOF-based materials for advanced Li-S batteries.
