Popis: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), new class a novel crystalline high surface area material, are being used extensively in clean energy applications possessing their controllable morphologies, permanent porosity, and high surface area. MOFs are interesting materials in the course of synthesizing and designing of nanostructured mesoporous metal oxide compounds and carbon nanocomposites mostly for the hierarchical nanostructures. In this review, the current trend and development of MOFs and these composite nanomaterials for the applications of supercapacitors, batteries, and fuel cells are discussed in detail. Especially the design and synthesis of nanomaterials derived from MOFs and effect of the structure on the electrochemical performance of MOFs’ clean energy applications are discussed in detail. Here also studied the anticipations, future trends, and possible limitations of the development of advanced MOFs and these composite nanomaterials for more interesting and large-scale commercial applications of clean energy.
