Electrolyte/electrode interfacial electrochemical behaviors and optimization strategies in aqueous zinc-ion batteries

Miao Zhou et al.

Summary: Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are a promising alternative for large-scale energy storage due to their environmental friendliness, low cost, and safety. However, the understanding of the electrolyte/electrode interfacial electrochemical behaviors, which significantly affect the performance of ZIBs, is still in the early stage. This review focuses on the characteristics and formation mechanism of the electrode/electrolyte interface (EEI) and discusses the various ionic electrochemical behaviors at EEI and interfacial optimization strategies. Practical considerations and future perspectives for manipulating EEI in aqueous ZIBs are also proposed.

Realizing wide-temperature Zn metal anodes through concurrent interface stability regulation and solvation structure modulation

Zhen Hou et al.

Summary: The study investigates the challenges of stable cycling of Zn metal anodes under thermal extremes, and proposes the use of oligomer poly(ethylene glycol) dimethyl ether as a competitive-solvent to regulate the Zn metal/electrolyte interface and electrolyte solvation chemistry. The competitive-solvent shifts water-occupied interface into oligomer one through preferential Zn surface adsorption, enabling dendrite-free Zn morphologies and alleviating parasitic reactions, ultimately extending the Zn metal anodes' cyclic lifetime across different temperatures.

Highly reversible aqueous zinc metal batteries enabled by fluorinated interphases in localized high concentration electrolytes

Shunqiang Chen et al.

Summary: In this study, a localized high concentration electrolyte (LHCE) using 1,4-dioxane as the diluent and hydrogen-bond modulator is reported for aqueous zinc (Zn) metal batteries. The unique solvation structure in LHCE greatly boosts anion chemistries to induce fluorinated interphases on Zn anode and V2O5 cathode, achieving higher rate capabilities and Zn coulombic efficiencies without dendrite formation. This approach can be applied to adjust electrolyte physical properties and control interphase formation in other aqueous battery systems for practical applications.
