Metal−Organic Frameworks for High‐Energy Lithium Batteries with Enhanced Safety: Recent Progress and Future Perspectives

Abstract Metal−organic frameworks (MOFs) are a relatively new class of crystalline, highly‐porous organic‐inorganic hybrid materials that have been attracting increasing attention in the field of high‐energy lithium batteries. In this review, recent achievements are detailed regarding the innovative design and processing of pristine MOFs and their nanocomposites for lithium−sulfur and lithium−oxygen batteries with high specific energy. Furthermore, the benefits and challenges associated with the applications of MOF‐based materials in solid‐state lithium‐metal batteries are discussed. Lastly, future prospects for the rational design and manufacturing of MOF‐based materials are provided.
