Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), constructed from metal ions and carboxylate chains, have emerged as a class of highly crystalline materials with tunable properties. Nickel, owing to its {redoxreactivity, has proven to be a popular constituent for MOF synthesis. This review comprehensively explores the recent advances in nickel-based MOF synthesis,

Copper foam emerges as a revolutionary material in the realm of lightweight design. Its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio makes it ideal for applications requiring both durability and minimal mass. Fabricated through a specialized process, copper foam possesses a unique cellular structure that amplifies its lightness without compromising its inh
