Abstract

Abstract: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are becoming more and more popular as the fillers in polymer electrolytes in recent years. In this study, a series of MOFs (NH₂-MIL-101(Fe), MIL-101(Fe), activated NH₂-MIL-101(Fe) and activated MIL-101(Fe)) were synthesized and added to PEO-based solid composite electrolytes (SCEs). Furthermore, the role of the —NH₂ groups and open metal sites (OMSs) were both examined. Different ratios of MOFs vs polymers were also studied by the electrochemical characterizations. At last, we successfully designed a novel solid composite electrolyte containing activated NH₂-MIL-101(Fe), PEO, LiTFSI and PVDF for the high-performance all-solid-state lithium-metal batteries. This work might provide new insight to understand the interactions between polymers and functional groups or OMSs of MOFs better.
