Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with porous crystal structures have attracted extensive attention in application of energy storage and conversion,owing to their regularity,porosity,large specific surface area,etc.In this work,Co-MOF-74 microflower has been successfully prepared via a controllable solvent regulation strategy.Through modulating the polarity of the solvent,crystals grow in certain preferred orientation and Co-MOF-74 with various morphologies were obtained.Thereinto,the energy storage per-formance of Co-MOF-74 microflower was measured in both three-electrode system and asymmetric su-percapacitor device (specific capacitance of 164.2 F/g at 0.5 A/g in the three-electrode system and 62.5 F/g at 1 A/g in the asymmetric supercapacitor device).This can be attributed to the preferred crystal orientation resulting in a regular and uniform microflower,which is of great significance to electronic interfacial exchange and ion transfer during electrochemical reactions.
