This work successfully prepared a hierarchical silver-coated zinc anode, which exhibited long-term cycle stabilities of zinc stripping and plating with the assistance of anionic surfactant (trisodium citrate). The Ag-coated zinc anode showed improved stability compared to pure zinc anodes, with over 1200 cycles of operation. The study provides new insights for enhancing the performance of Zn-metal batteries.
Rechargeable aqueous zinc (Zn) batteries are promising for large energy storage due to their low cost, high safety, and environmental compatibility, but their commercialization is hindered by the severe irreversibility of Zn metal anodes as exemplified by water-induced side reactions (H2 evolution and Zn corrosion) and dendrite growth. In this work, hierarchical layered silver-coated zinc anode under the assistance of anionic surfactant (trisodium citrate) was prepared for long-time cycle stabilities of zinc stripping and plating, where Ag coating has a strong affinity to Zn adatoms and hierarchical structure exhibits a positive role in inducing the (002) plane preferred-orientation growth of Zn phase. Benefiting from these features, hierarchical Ag-coated zinc anode was able to operate stability for more than 1200 cycles compared with the pure zinc anode at 2 mA/cm(2) for 1 mAh/cm(2), and an asymmetric cell shows superior Coulombic efficiency of similar to 99.6% over 800 cycles at a current density of 1 mA/cm(2) and 0.5 mAh/ cm(2), as well as a long cycling stability of 500 cycles with capacity of 115 mAh/g in MnO2||H-Zn@Ag full batteries. This work provides a new insight to improve the performance of Zn-metal batteries.(c) 2023 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
