Abstract

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), with their tunable pore sizes and high surface areas, are gaining prominence in Li metal battery applications, including their use as nanofillers in solid composite electrolytes (SCEs) for enhanced ionic conductivity. Yet, when used in SCEs, individual dispersed MOF particles in isolation as nanofillers can impede efficient ion transport in all-solid-state batteries due to the insufficient supply of ionic transport pathways within SCEs. Here, we introduced a continuous SCE nanofiller with long-range assembly interconnected porous MOFs (IMOF_SCE) for effective ion transport pathway supply along the interface between the nanofiller and the polymer matrix. IMOF_SCE achieved Li-ion conductivity (6.72 × 10–5 S cm–1 at 20 °C) and Li-ion transference number (tLi+ = 0.855), resulting in the improved electrochemical performance of Li metal batteries. Additionally, the Li/LiFePO4 full cell integrated with IMOF_SCE achieved an outstanding stable capacity retention of 98.8% in 300 cycles. This work offers insights into the design strategy of effective nanofillers for SCEs and can be adapted for other porous materials.
