Molecular Design Of Electrically Conductive Covalent Organic Frameworks As Efficient Electrodes For Lithium-Ion Batteries
Testing Lithium Batteries Using Conductive Covalent Organic Framework Cathode Materialsused To Power Electric Vehicles And Store Renewable Energy, Li-Ion Batteries (Libs) Can Help Reduce Carbon Emissions. However, Libs Are Based On Transition Metal Oxide Cathodes. This Means They Have Limited Energy Density, And It Also Raises Environmental Concerns. The Eu-Funded Electrocofs Project Will Explore Organic Materials As Alternative Electrodes Because Of Their High Theoretical Capacity, Resource Availability And Sustainability. Covalent Organic Frameworks (Cofs) Have Emerged In The Past Few Years As Promising Organic Electrode Materials Due To Their Outstanding Chemical And Structural Versatility. The Overall Goal Is To Design New Conductive Redox-Active Cofs As Cathode Materials To Enhance Libsβ Electrochemical Performance.
