  • Solid solution approach for redox active metal organic frameworks with tunable redox conductivity
    Patent number: 11964992
    Abstract: Various embodiments relate to a method for producing a metal-organic framework (MOF) having a desired redox conductivity and including redox-active linkers, having ?-alkyl-ferrocene groups, via de novo solvothermal synthesis. Various embodiments relate to a metal-organic framework (MOF) linker comprising an ?-alkyl-ferrocene group. Various embodiments relate to a metal-organic framework (MOF), having a first plurality of redox-active linkers, each having an ?-alkyl-ferrocene group. The MOF according to various embodiments, may further have one or more redox-inactive linkers. Various embodiments relate to materials, apparatuses, and components that include the MOF according to various embodiments. For example, various embodiments relate to thin-films, bulk powders, or electrodes.

  • Mechanically shaped 2-dimensional covalent organic frameworks
    Patent number: 11952393
    Abstract: Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) usually crystallize as insoluble powders and their processing for suitable devices has been thought to be limited. Here, it is demonstrated that COFs can be mechanically pressed into shaped objects having anisotropic ordering with preferred orientation between the hk0 and 00l crystallographic planes. Pellets prepared from bulk COF powders impregnated with LiClO4 displayed room temperature conductivity up to 0.26 mS cm?1 and stability up to 10.0 V (vs. Li+/Li0). This outcome portends use of COFs as solid-state electrolytes in batteries.

  • SOLID SOLUTION APPROACH FOR REDOX ACTIVE METAL ORGANIC FRAMEWORKS WITH TUNABLE REDOX CONDUCTIVITY
    Publication number: 20210179652
    Abstract: Various embodiments relate to a method for producing a metal-organic framework (MOF) having a desired redox conductivity and including redox-active linkers, having w-alkyl-ferrocene groups, via de novo solvothermal synthesis. Various embodiments relate to a metal-organic framework (MOF) linker comprising an w-alkyl-ferrocene group. Various embodiments relate to a metal-organic framework (MOF), having a first plurality of redox-active linkers, each having an ?-alkyl-ferrocene group. The MOF according to various embodiments, may further have one or more redox-inactive linkers. Various embodiments relate to materials, apparatuses, and components that include the MOF according to various embodiments.
