Coordination Nanomaterials for Metal-Air Batteries

It is imperative to promptly adopt sustainable and eco-friendly renewable energy technology in order to effectively tackle the worldwide energy challenges. Regarding energy conversion, the research on energy storage is now covering behind its optimal progress, necessitating further investigation. Supercapacitors (SCs) bridge the performance gap between electrostatic double-layer capacitors and batteries by storing energy through electrochemical reactions at the electrode surface. The unique electrochemical properties of coordination materials, including porous coordination polymers (PCPs), metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and covalent organic frameworks (COFs), have garnered significant interest. This chapter primarily focuses on the latest breakthroughs and design concepts of coordination materials used as electrode materials for supercapacitors. This study aims to examine these materials by analyzing their synthetic methods and exploring the correlation between their material structure and efficiency.
