Effective design and construction of highly electrochemically active materials on conductive substrates with hierarchical nanostructures are critical for enhancing the electrochemical energy storage performance of electrodes. However, the design of such special structures is still challenging. In this study, a special three-dimensional@three-dimensional (3D@3D) NiCo-layered double hydroxide (NiCo-LDH) composite nanostructure is developed through the innovative approach of in-situ growth of arrayed Co-Zif-L on conductive substrate, disrupting the Zif-67 formation. This is followed by ion exchange process and electrochemical synthesis for growing 3D NiCo-LDH nanosheets. A unique structure with the 3D NiCo-LDH embedded in the 3D Co-Zif-L structure, termed as 3D@3D, is resulted. This spatial structure not only enhances their mechanical stability and adhesion strength through the in-situ growth process, but also provides a greater number of electrochemical active sites due to its ultra-large specific surface area. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the NiCo-LDH@Co-Zif-L composite nanostructure exhibits an enhanced density of states (DOS) near the Fermi level compared to individual components, indicating excellent conductivity. With this unique structure, the NiCo-LDH@Co-Zif-L/NF electrode demonstrates an area-specific capacity of 4.1C cm −2 and retains 81.9 % of its initial capacitance after 5000 cycles. Moreover, the assembled hybrid supercapacitor achieves an energy density of 222.2 mWh cm −2 at a power density of 800 mW cm −2 (66.9 Wh kg −1 at 245 W/kg). The innovative approach in this work provides new insights into the utilization of Zif materials and designing electrode materials with special structures for high-performance electrochemical energy storage devices.

In this study, melamine sponge (MS) is modified by in-situ growth of leaf-like Co-ZIF-L without the addition of additives or surfactants . Such modified MS shows good underwater superoleophobicity because of the unique pore structure and highly rough surface of MS@Co-ZIF-L. Compared to the pristine MS, the water-wetted MS@Co-ZIF-L exhibits excellent water-oil separation for various oils (the separation efficiencies are higher than 99.2%) with good long-term stability (no decrease in flux and separation efficiency after 60 cycles of separation). Moreover, MS@Co-ZIF-L is highly effective to treat oil-water emulsions. Besides the excellent separation performance, due to the outstanding mechanical properties, MS@Co-ZIF-L can be shaped into various configurations such as membranes, filters, adsorbing foams or other forms for the oil/water separation in various situations.

Precise orientation regulation represents an important pathway for microstructure optimization and performance enhancement of metal–organic framework (MOF) membranes, which remains challenging to achieve. In this study, a magnetic field is employed to prepare Co-based zeolitic imidazolate framework-L (Co-ZIF-L) membranes with controlled orientation. The application of a magnetic field promotes the ordered migration of Co 2+ ions along the magnetic field lines and enables Co 2+ ions to orderly coordinate with ligands along the easy magnetization axis of MOF crystals, exposing the lowest energy crystal plane and promoting selective growth of MOF crystals. Resulting (200)-oriented Co-ZIF-L membrane with a thickness of ≈40 nm exhibits H 2 /CH 4 separation factor of 59.1 with H 2 permeance of 2275 GPU. This work provides a facile and efficient strategy to accurately regulate the preferred orientation of MOF membranes toward superior gas separation.

Two-dimensional carbon/CoP hybrids catalysts usually exhibit extraordinary performance especially in hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) application because of their unique morphology which bring unique physical and chemical properties. Although Co-doped zeolitic imidazolate framework nanoleaf (Co-ZIF-L) is quite attractive as carbon-based catalyst precursor, carbonization and phosphorization processes would normally induce Co-ZIF-L derived CoP/N-doped carbon (CoP-NC) catalyst to occur structural collapse due to the shrinkage stress and strong reducibility of PH 3 , seriously restricting the structural advantage of these catalysts. To this end, a carbon-shell confinement strategy by polydopamine (PDA) is developed to improve the structural stability of these catalysts. The precursor that Co-ZIF-L coated with PDA (Co-ZIF-L@PDA) has a more stable structure, which makes the electrocatalyst CoP-NC possess componential advantage and the merits of two-dimensional structure. The resultant CoP-NC exhibits enhanced activity and good stability for pH-universal HER. The overpotentials of CoP-NC at the current density of 10 mA cm −2 are 145 mV in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 solution and 167 mV in 1 M KOH solution. Additionally, the electrocatalyst CoP-NC displays comparable activity and stability for HER in neutral media as well.

CoS 2 /Co-Ni layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with a rational tailored pore structure are developed by partial sulfurization of Co-ZIF-L and subsequent Ni 2+ etching for the transformation of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) to layered double hydroxides . The as-synthesized CoS 2 /Co-Ni LDHs maintain the leaf-like structure and have rich hierarchical pores. More importantly, CoS 2 nanoparticles are uniformly embedded among Co-Ni LDH layers, facilitating mass diffusion and favorably exposing more active sites. Benefiting from these desirable compositional and structural features, a remarkable specific capacitance (capacity) of 1784 F/g (223 mAh/g) at 1 A/g is delivered by CoS 2 /Co-Ni LDHs. Furthermore, the as-assembled CoS 2 /Co-Ni LDH//activated carbon as the asymmetric supercapacitor device also exhibits a high energy density of 125 Wh/kg at a power density of 800 W/kg and a superb capacitance retention of 98 % after 5000 cycles, outperforming many Co-Ni LDH based electrode materials reported in the literature.

Metal ion-induced etching can effectively convert zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) to CoNi-layered double hydroxides (LDH). Here, different metal-ion-assisted etching methods are utilized to convert Co-ZIF-L to CoNi-LDH with various morphologies and electrochemical properties . The resultant CoNi-LDH (CoNi-1) with a composition of Co 0.7 Ni 0.3 (OH) 2 displayed a high electrochemical performance when Co-ZIF-L was treated in N, N -dimethylformamide-ethanol solution containing Co 2+ ions followed by Ni 2+ ion-induced etching under hydrothermal condition. The improved electrochemical performance of CoNi-1 can be attributed to structural advantages, where the well-dispersed ultrathin CoNi-LDH layers favor the exposure of surface active sites and promote ion diffusion to maximize electrochemical properties.

The metal ion etching induced transformation of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) to layered double hydroxides (LDHs) is closely related to the etching conditions. Here, by tuning the Ni 2+ etching conditions (e.g., initial Ni 2+ concentration and etching time), Co-ZIF-L templated CoNi-LDH with diverse morphologies and tailorable compositions are obtained and their resultant electrochemical properties are optimized. Mechanism study reveals that the etching conditions significantly affect the disassembling rate of Co-ZIF-L as well as the formation rate of CoNi-LDH, leading to the morphological and compositional variance of etched samples, which further results in their distinct electrochemical activities. The resultant asymmetric supercapacitor assembled with Co-ZIF-L derived CoNi-LDH and activated carbon can achieve a maximum energy density of 77.3 Wh/kg at a power density of 700 W/kg with the capacity retention of 85.7 % after 2000 cycles, superior or comparable to other advanced CoNi-LDH based supercapacitors .

Developing high-efficiency bifunctional materials for electro-catalysis and supercapacitors are urgently needed but challenging. Herein, we develop a self-supporting Co–Ni LDH electrode prepared by in-situ growing ZIF-L(Co)@ZIF-L(Co, Ni) on carbon paper followed by a pseudomorphic transformation. The optimized Co–Ni LDH/carbon paper electrodes (CN-2/CP) exhibit excellent electrochemical activity and stability in oxygen evolution reactions (OER) and supercapacitors. The CN-2/CP electrode displays a low overpotential of 230 mV at 10 mA cm −2 and superior stability at 40-h chronopotentiometry for OER. For supercapacitor, the CN-2/CP electrode delivers a high specific capacitance of 1346 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and maintains a capacitance of 88.5% after 7000 charge/discharge cycles at 20 A g −1 . Based on the physical and chemical characterization results, the high performance originates from the in-situ electrochemical conversion of metal hydroxide , improved conductivity, fast charge transfer at the interface and unique layered cross morphology providing more active sites.
