Abstract

A general method of preparing nanocomposites from a metal–organic framework coated with hydroxyl, pyrrolyl and/or carboxyl functionalized organics is introduced. Pyrolysis of these nanocomposites gives anode materials with improved discharge capacity (750 mA h g−1) and cyclability. They also show enhanced Coulombic efficiency over the initial 5–10 cycles and decreased internal impedance.
