Summary: This review article focuses on supercapacitor electrode materials based on composites of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and conductive polymers (CPs). The combination of MOFs and CPs is an effective strategy to enhance the electrochemical performance of electrode materials. MOFs have unique properties such as high porosity and large surface area, but their low electrical conductivity limits their energy storage applications. CPs, on the other hand, have controllable conductivity and mechanical properties, making them attractive for supercapacitor applications. The review discusses hybridization strategies and provides a summary of recent advances in MOF@CP hybrids.

Summary: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising materials for supercapacitors due to their unique porous structure, high surface area, and active sites. In this study, a nickel-cobalt sulfide heterostructure (CoS1.097/Ni9S8/CC) was designed and fabricated on a carbon cloth using MOFs as templates. The CoS1.097/Ni9S8 heterostructure showed higher capacitance (596.4 C g(-1)) compared to CoS1.097/CC (92.6 C g(-1)) at 2 A g(-1). The high electrochemical performance of CoS1.097/Ni9S8 was attributed to its high hydrophilicity, abundant active sites, and good electrical conductivity. By using CoS(1.097)/Ni9S8/CC as the positive electrode and activated carbon as the negative electrode, an asymmetric supercapacitor achieved a high energy/power density of 37.2 W h kg(-1)/375.9 W kg(-1) with 99.3% retention after 10,000 cycles. Therefore, developing methods to enhance the conductivity of MOFs is of great significance for their application in supercapacitors.

Summary: In this study, a highly efficient electrocatalyst was developed by anchoring Co nanoparticles on N-doped porous carbon material. The catalyst showed comparable catalytic activity with commercial 20% Pt/C for the oxygen reduction reaction. A home-made Zn-air battery exhibited excellent performance with a stable discharge voltage for up to 9 days. The enhanced performance of the electrocatalyst was attributed to its high content of pyridinic-N and graphitic-N species, extra Co loading, and porous structure.

Summary: Hydrogels with excellent antibiofouling properties were prepared by in situ synthesis of spindle CaCO3-Chitosan/poly (vinyl alcohol) (SCC/PVA) hydrogels inspired by seashells. The morphologies, structure, and components of the hydrogels were characterized. The SCC/PVA hydrogels exhibited excellent underwater superoleophobicity properties and remarkable resistance to protein, bacteria, and algae adhesion. The SCC/PVA-3 hydrogel had the highest superoleophobicity and compressive strength, and significantly reduced the settlement of Navicula, Nitzschia, and Closterium on its surface, as well as inhibiting the adhesion of elegans in the South China Sea for 180 days.

Summary: Readily synthesized and highly antibacterial polyhexamethylene guanidine molybdate (PHMG-MoO4) can significantly improve the resistance of epoxy coating to sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) biofilm as a filler. In SRB inoculated medium, no SRB biofilm formed on PHMG-MoO4/epoxy coating after 120 days, and the corrosion current density of the epoxy coating painted carbon steel decreased by 99.0% after addition of PHMG-MoO4 in the coating. There were also fewer fouling organisms on PHMG-MoO4/epoxy coating after 4 months of immersion in the actual seawater.
