Calendar Life of Zn Batteries Based on Zn Anode with Zn Powder/Current Collector Structure

Qing Li et al.

Summary: The study highlights the practical issues that may arise when using Zn foil for studying the stability and dendrite formation behavior of Zn anodes, suggesting that a Zn powder/current collector configuration is more practical. The research also reveals that during the aging process of the Zn-P@Cu electrode, hydrogen forms on the surface of Cu and the Zn-P dissolves, leading to morphological changes, which are attributed to galvanic corrosion between Cu and Zn.

In situ built interphase with high interface energy and fast kinetics for high performance Zn metal anodes

Yuzhu Chu et al.

Summary: The in situ construction of a composite SEI mainly composed of Zn-3(PO4)(2) and ZnF2 (ZCS) effectively suppresses Zn dendrite growth and accelerates Zn2+ transference and deposition kinetics in aqueous Zn-ion batteries. By taking advantage of the instability of KPF6 in an aqueous environment, an in situ ZCS is successfully built on the Zn anode through a PF6- anion-induced chemical strategy, showing enhanced reversibility and excellent electrochemical performance. This work not only paves a new way for designing a desirable SEI on the Zn anode, but also may guide the interface engineering of other systems to overcome intrinsic defects in constructing favorable interphases.
