Recent Development of Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIFs) Derived Porous Carbon Based Materials as Electrocatalysts

Cheng, Ningyan, Ren, Long, Xu, Xun, Du, Yi, Dou, Shi Xue·2018·Advanced Energy Materials

Abstract

Development of effective, stable, and economic electrocatalysts is critical for further implementation of fuel cells, water electrolysis, and metal–air batteries in clean energy conversion technologies. As a subfamily of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) possess the characteristics of both MOFs and zeolites, showing highly porous structures, large surface area, and open catalytic active sites. This review presents materials design strategies for constructing improved electrocatalysts based on ZIF precursors/templates, with special emphasis on the varieties of derivatives, controllable building of active sites, the construction of macroscopic structure, and the favored electrocatalytic reactions based on these materials. These ZIF‐derived N‐doped carbon‐based composites or compounds have exhibited remarkable activity and stability for a broad electrocatalysis application, displaying great potential to replace noble‐metal‐based catalysts. The challenges and perspectives regarding ZIF‐derived electrocatalysts are also discussed for better development of ZIF‐derived electrocatalysts.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
