Synthesis and Characterization Ni/Fe-MOF and Its Performance for Supercapacitor Application
Keywords:
Supercapacitor, MOFs, energy storageAbstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are widely used for supercapacitor electrodes due to their large surface area, high porosity, and adaptability. However, the low conductivity of pure MOFs limits their application as electrode materials. Various techniques are employed to overcome this, including creating bimetallic MOFs or making a composite. This study focuses on the novel bimetallic Ni/Fe-MOF, comparing its characteristics to Ni-MOF. The synthesis of MOFs is achieved using a single-step solvothermal method at 150 oC for 48 h, using terephthalic acid (BDC) as ligans. For solvent, ethylene glycol is added as a capping agent. Ni/Fe-MOF exhibits high capacitive properties, with a specific capacitance of 688 Fg-1 at 0.5 Ag-1. Both have almost the same Flake-like morphology. These findings suggest that bimetallic Ni/Fe-MOF using solvothermal are promising candidates for improving Ni-MOF performance as supercapacitor electrodes, potentially advancing energy storage technology.
