This study developed a unique dual-interface engineering strategy to design an efficient ion transport modulator separator for Zn metal batteries. By decorating BaTiO3 (BTO) on glass fiber, the modified separator can capture and accelerate ion transport, and distribute it homogenously, resulting in highly reversible Zn plating/stripping in the anode and improved battery performance.
Sluggish transport kinetics and rapid dendrite growth are considered the main obstacles that impair the performance of Zn metal batteries. This work has developed a unique strategy of dual-interface engineering (DIE) to design the separator as efficient ions transport modulator. The dual function of spontaneous polarization effect and high zincophilicity of BaTiO3 (BTO) is revealed by combining the theoretical and experimental studies. Benefiting from the decoration of BTO on glass fiber and well filling of the surface interspace, the DIE-modified separator can not only effectively capture and accelerate Zn2+ transport between the fiber-electrolyte interface, but also redistribute the ions transport into homogenization in the separator-anode interface. Therefore, the modified Zn anodes perform highly reversible Zn plating/stripping with ultrahigh cumulative capacity even up to 9500 mAh cm(-2) at the high current density of 10 mA cm(-2). Meanwhile, the modified Zn-MnO2 battery can retain a specific capacity of 108 mAh g(-1) after 1800 cycles at 1 A g(-1). Furthermore, the capacity retention of the battery also can be improved from 37.5% up to 115% at 0.2 A g(-1) after 100 cycles. Such a novel concept for separator engineering provides a new perspective to enable ultra-stable Zn metal anodes and high-performance Zn metal batteries.
