Abstract

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), are explosively developed as electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries. Mn-BTC MOF possessed low cycling stability. We therefore attempted to improve the electrochemical properties by doping cobalt into the Mn-BTC. Cobalt doped MnCo-BTC MOF greatly improved the cycling stability compared with Mn-BTC. A high capacity of 901 mA h g-1 could be obtained for MnCo-BTC at a rate of 100 mA g-1 after 150 cycles. Even at a high rate of 500 mA g-1, its capacity can still reach 445.3 mA h g-1 after 100 cycles.
