Description
Battery technology is a pivotal part of society's transition towards green energy. The usage of metal organic frameworks (MOF) as anodes has shown promise as a method of increasing energy density, durability and power of batteries. My experiment examines the synthesis of MOF onto carbon nanotubes as a method of further improving battery performance. More research needs to be done to determine how the carbon nanotube effects electrochemical performance.
Acknowledgements
