摘要
Prussian blue/Prussian blue analogues(PB/PBAs)are widely used in electrochemistry and materials science fields,such as electrochemical energy storage,catalysis,water purification,and electromagnetic wave absorption,owing to their 3D open-framework structure,tunable composition,and large specific surface area.However,the co-precipitation method,which is most suitable for large-scale production of PB/PBAs,often leads to the formation of numerous crystal defects and severe lattice distortion,which significantly affects the structural stability of PB/PBAs.To obtain high-crystallinity PB/PBAs with targeted properties,precise synthesis considering various detailed conditions is especially needed.Herein,this review comprehensively summarizes the fundamental structure composition,key factors in synthesis,and applications in the electrochemistry of PB/PBAs.Unlike previous reports,this review elucidates the relationship between the physicochemical properties of PB/PBAs and their structural composition,with a particular focus on revealing the mechanisms and significance of specific preparation methods during the synthesis process,including reactant concentration,chelating agent,aging,atmosphere,temperature,and drying conditions,for achieving the precise fabrication of PB/PBAs nanomaterials.As PB/PBAs gradually become materials for multidimensional applications,we urge greater attention to the unique properties of PB/PBAs that are sustained by high crystallinity and stable crystal structures.This will effectively ensure the maximization of their advantages in practical applications.
