Abstract

One of the significant challenges encountered by metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in proton conduction is their limited processability. In this study, we successfully synthesized UiO-66-COOH aerogel and UiO-66-2COOH aerogel, which exhibit high proton conductivities and remarkable temperature cycling stability in terms of performance and structural integrity.
