Metal–organic frameworks for solid-state electrolytes

For solid-state Li and other metal batteries, solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) are a bridge between electrodes, and are significant in determining the behavior of batteries. Thus, constructing stable and excellent SSEs is vital for the feasible application of metal batteries. Because of their unique and multifunctional properties, namely unsaturated metal sites, tunable structure, and high specific surface area, porous metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been applied to SSEs to enhance the performance of metal batteries. The influence of different factors in MOF-based SSEs on battery performance will be studied,, including MOF structures, unsaturated metal sites, incorporation with ionic liquids, different organic ligands, pore size and nano/micro hierarchical structure.
