RESUMO
Nickel-based metal-organic skeletal materials (Ni-MOFs) are a new class of inorganic materials that have aroused attention of investigators during past couple of years. They offer advantages such as high specific surface area, structural diversity, tunable framework etc. This assorted class of materials exhibited catalytic activity and electrochemical properties and display wide range of applications in the fields of electrochemical sensing, electrical energy storage and electrocatalysis. In this context, the presented review focuses on strategies to improve the electrochemical performance and stability of Ni-MOFs through the optimization of synthesis conditions, the construction of composite materials, and the preparation of derivatives of precursors. The review also presents the applications of Ni-MOFs and their derivatives as electrochemical sensors, energy storage devices, and electrocatalysts. In addition, the challenges and further electrochemical development prospects of Ni-MOFs have been discussed.
