Towards high-areal-capacity aqueous zinc-manganese batteries: promoting MnO2 dissolution by redox mediators

Jiafeng Lei et al.

Summary: Researchers introduced a mediator strategy to facilitate MnO2 dissolution and recover 'lost' capacity from exfoliated MnO2, improving cycling stability at high areal capacity. The iodide mediator chemically reduces solid MnO2 to form Mn2+ and oxidizes to tri-iodide (I-3(-)), completing one mediation cycle. This strategy significantly enhances the cycling stability and demonstrates the highest areal capacity achieved for reported Zn-Mn batteries.
