Abstract:
Hybrid zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (HZIFs) possess the characteristics of both ZIFs and inorganic zeolites, attracting tremendous attention for their potential applications in electrochemical energy storage and conversion. This mini review presents design strategies for constructing advanced electrochemical functional materials based on Mo/W-based HZIF precursors/templates, and mainly focus on the component manipulation, morphology control, and the favored electrochemical reactions. The Mo/W-based HZIFs and their derivatives with a tailored composition and structure display excellent activity and stability for a broad electrochemical energy-related application. These summarized systematic strategies and perspectives offer inspiration and guidance for the future development of HZIF-based hybrids for more efficient and durable electrochemical energy applications.

What is an Electrochemical Gradient?
The chemical gradient relies on differences in the abundance of a substance on the outside versus the inside of a cell and flows from areas of high to low ion concentration. In contrast, the electrical gradient revolves around an...

Cell Potential and Free Energy
Thermodynamics is the branch of physics dealing with the relationship between heat and other forms of energy. In an electrochemical cell, chemical energy is converted into electrical energy.
Thus, a link can be predicted between cell potential, free energy change, and the equilibrium constant for the reaction. Cell potential can also be measured as the oxidant or the reducing strength, and similar acid-base strength measures are reflected in equilibrium...
