Cerium metal–organic framework based composites (Ce-MOF/GO and Ce-MOF/CNT) were synthesized by a wet chemical route and characterized with different techniques to characterize their crystal nature, morphology, functional groups, and porosity. The obtained Ce-MOF in the composites exhibit a nanorod structure with a size of ∼150 nm. The electrochemical performance of the composites was investigated in 3 M KOH and 3 M KOH + 0.2 M K₃Fe(CN)₆ electrolytes. Enhanced electrochemical behavior was obtained for the Ce-MOF/GO composite in both electrolytes and exhibited a maximum specific capacitance of 2221.2 F g⁻¹ with an energy density of 111.05 W h kg⁻¹ at a current density of 1 A g⁻¹. The large mesoporous structure and the presence of oxygen functional groups in Ce-MOF/GO could facilitate ion transport in the electrode/electrolyte interface, and the results suggested that the Ce-MOF/GO composite could be used as a high-performance supercapacitor electrode material.
