Facile room-temperature solution-phase synthesis of a ZIF-67 : Ni hybrid-MOF battery type material for supercapacitor applications.

ABSTRACT: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have gained significant attention as potential supercapacitor electrodes due to their high surface area, tunability, and well-defined porosity. However, their application is often limited by low capacity, poor electrical conductivity, and weak substrate adhesion, as observed in zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67). To address these limitations, this study investigates the effect of nickel incorporation into ZIF-67, aiming to enhance its electrochemical performance. A series of hybrid-MOFs, denoted as ZIF-67 : Ni (1 : X), were synthesized via a simple solution-phase method at room temperature by varying the nickel content. Nickel was introduced to facilitate faster redox reactions and improve ion transport, thereby enhancing charge storage
