Conductive MOFs as bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts for all-solid-state Zn–air batteries

Abstract

A new class of π-conjugated conductive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were developed as efficient electrocatalysts for both the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Particularly when used as the bifunctional catalysts of an air-cathode, the conductive MOFs can help the all-solid-state Zn-air batteries to achieve a high performance.
