摘要
Metal organic frameworks(MOFs) have been considered as compelling precursor for miscellaneous applications. However, their unsatisfied electrocatalytic performance limits their direct application as electrocatalyst. Herein, by incorporating the cobalt-oxide bonds and polyaniline(PANI) with two-dimension zeolitic imidazolate frameworks(ZIFs), a novel bifunctional catalyst(Co-O-ZIF/PANI) for Zn-air battery was designed based on a facile and eco-friendly method. This Co-O-ZIF/PANI with optimized surface adsorption effect and suitable Co^(3+)/Co^(2+)ratio, exhibits eminent electrocatalytic activity toward both oxygen reduction and evolution reaction. The as-assembled liquid ZABs based on Co-O-ZIF/PANI achieves a remarkable maximum power density of 123.1 m W cm^(-2) and low discharge-charge voltage gap of 0.81 V at 5 m A cm^(-2) for over 300 cycles. Operando Raman spectroscopy reveals that the excellent performance origins from the optimized surface chemisorption property of O_(2) and H_(2)O brought by Co–O bonds and PANI. This work provides a novel prospect to develop efficient MOF derived bifunctional electrocatalysts by optimizing surface chemisorption properties.
