Abstract

Well-intergrown nanocrystals of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-8) supported on three-dimensional (3D) graphene were prepared by a counter diffusion technique. The incorporation of ZIF-8 crystals greatly improves the surface areas of the graphene composites. The carbonized graphene-ZIF composites with hierarchical pore structures showed high electrochemical capacitance and good stability. This work provides an efficient method to synthesize porous carbon materials with high capacitance.
