Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and relative structures with uniform micro/mesoporous structures have shown important applications in various fields. This paper reports the synthesis of unprecedented mesoporous NixCo3−xO4 nanorods with tuned composition from the Co/Ni bimetallic MOF precursor. The C...
