Abstract
In a world of constantly increasing energy demand, the development of efficient and sustainable energy storage technologies is becoming more essential. Among existing solutions, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) stand out for their high energy density and performance. However, current LIBs are heavily dependent on scarce metals such as cobalt, raising concerns about long-term availability, cost, and environmental impact. As a response to these challenges, Organic Battery Materials (OBMs) have emerged as a promising alternative, offering a route toward sustainable electrode materials. Over the past decades, significant advances have been made in the development of OBMs, leading to materials with increasingly competitive electrochemical performance and stability. This master's thesis aims to contribute to this field by designing and synthesizing novel battery materials based on Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that are sustainable, stable, and exhibiting high energy density.
