Abstract:
Herein, we utilized our previously reported highly porous CuMOF, {[Cu2(L)(H2O)2]·(5DMF)·(4H2O)}, decorated with amine and trifluoromethyl functional groups for energy storage application. This robust framework in CuMOF enhances the chemical and thermal stabilities as well as improves the interfacial binding interactions. The poor conductivity of CuMOF usually restricts its practical utility in energy storage systems, due to which rGO was introduced along with CuMOF to form a CuMOF/rGO composite (1) through a facile ultrasonication technique. The synergistic effects between CuMOF and rGO induce a dramatic enhancement in specific capacitance (462 F g-1 at 0.8 A g-1) of 1 with a cycle life of 93.75% up to 1000 cycles. The results highlight 1 as an emerging contestant for next generation supercapacitors.

Classifying Matter by Composition
According to its composition, the matter can be classified into two broad categories — pure substances and mixtures.
A pure substance is a form of matter that has a constant composition throughout with uniform properties. For example, any sample of sucrose has the same composition and same physical properties, such as melting point, color, and sweetness, regardless of the source from which it is isolated.
A mixture is composed of two or...
