Covalent Organic Frameworks as Electrode Materials for Alkali Metal‐ion Batteries

Abstract

Abstract Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of porous crystalline polymeric materials constructed by linking organic small molecules through covalent bonds. COFs have the advantages of strong covalent bond network, adjustable pore structure, large specific surface area and excellent thermal stability, and have broad application prospects in various fields. Based on these advantages, rational COFs design strategies such as the introduction of active sites, construction of conjugated structures, and carbon material composite, etc. can effectively improve the conductivity and stability of the electrode materials in the field of batteries. This paper introduces the latest research results of high‐performance COFs electrode materials in alkali metal‐ion batteries (LIBs, SIBs, PIBs and LSBs) and other advanced batteries. The current challenges and future design directions of COFs‐based electrode are discussed. It provides useful insights for the design of novel COFs structures and the development of high‐performance alkali metal‐ion batteries.
