Supercapacitors: Inverted Design for High‐Performance Supercapacitor Via Co(OH)2‐Derived Highly Oriented MOF Electrodes (Adv. Energy Mater. 7/2018)

In article number 1702294, Wei Zhang, Weitao Zheng and co-workers suggest a novel strategy to use the common method in reverse, to synthesize a highly-oriented MOF electrode by using Co(OH)2 as both the template and precursor. As a result, the constituted supercapacitor can deliver a maximum energy density of 28.5 W h kg−1 and a maximum power density of 24000 W kg−1. This inverted design also opens the chemistry gateway for mutual transformations between MOFs and their routine target products.
