Technical Field

Background
The modern society is rapidly developed, the support of energy and power cannot be avoided, and the problems of energy exhaustion, environmental pollution and the like are puzzling people gradually, for example, three fossil energy sources: coal, oil and natural gas, which are the primary energy sources, are used up by human beings, which forces people to continuously explore novel energy sources. On the other hand, effective utilization of new energy sources depends on energy storage equipment, and people urgently need to find advanced energy storage equipment. As the electronics industry has developed, various electronic devices need to provide high capacity, portable backup power sources, and the most promising energy storage devices, in addition to batteries, are now supercapacitors. The super capacitor has various advantages, the research of the super capacitor has become one of hot research projects in the research of the super capacitor by researchers in many countries including China, and the super capacitor has a large application market [2] in the aspects of electric vehicles, electronic products, national defense industry and the like. In the research field of super capacitors, electrode materials and electrolyte are always main factors, and the performance of a super capacitor is greatly dependent on the performance of the electrode materials.
Carbon materials were first applied in electric double layer supercapacitors. The carbon material has the advantages of very high specific surface area, adjustable pore size, good stability, long cycle life, abundant sources, low price and the like, so that the double-electric-layer capacitor using the carbon material as the electrode appears on the market in a large scale. Among them, carbon sources such as activated carbon, graphene, and carbon nanotubes have been studied in many cases. In recent years, research on carbon materials has focused on how to increase the capacitance and energy density by increasing the specific surface area and pore size of the carbon material. However, the carbon material having a high specific surface area does not necessarily have a high capacitance, and is only satisfied within a certain range and limit. The most widely studied carbon material is activated carbon, which is prepared by using some carbon-containing precursors such as: coconut shell, wood, coal and the like are subjected to heat treatment and activation to obtain the coconut shell-wood-coal composite material. Generally, the activation method is chemical activation of physical activation, and different activation methods and pore structures and sizes of the obtained carbon materials are different, which is the key to relate to the size of the capacitance value. In general, the performance of supercapacitors with different carbon materials as electrode materials varies, and researchers are constantly searching for and improving carbon electrode materials.
A Metal-Organic framework (MOFs) is an Organic-inorganic hybrid material which is rapidly developed in the last two decades, and is a porous crystal material which is constructed by a Metal center/Metal cluster and a multidentate Organic ligand in a self-assembly form and has a one-dimensional, two-dimensional or three-dimensional network structure. The diversity of the organic ligands enables the pore channels of the MOFs to have the characteristics of strong chemical modification, size adjustability and the like, so that the MOFs has wide potential application in the fields of fluorescence, sensing, gas adsorption separation, catalysis and the like. In recent years, materials prepared by calcining MOFs serving as templates or precursors under different conditions, such as MOFs-based porous carbon materials, metal oxide and carbon composite materials, metal oxides and the like, have excellent performance in the fields of lithium ion batteries, supercapacitors and the like.
