Study of electrochemical performance of Ni-BTC MOF as a supercapacitor electrode

Metal-Organic frameworks (MOFs) are the promising electrode materials for supercapacitors application due to their porous structures and large specific surface area. Here hydrothermal method has been used preparation of Ni-MOF as material in supercapacitors. The prepared is characterized structurally by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). electrochemical performance studied cyclic voltammetry (CV) galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) 1M KOH aqueous electrolyte solution. We obtained different values capacitance at scan rates current densities. shows a maximum 234 F g−1 density 0.43 A g−1.
