Weakly Solvating Effect Spawning Reliable Interfacial Chemistry for Aqueous Zn/Na Hybrid Batteries

Yihan Yang et al.

Summary: By designing an aqueous electrolyte with a weakly solvating effect, a durable anion-derived solid electrolyte interface (SEI) with high ion conduction properties is constructed, which significantly restrains dendrite formation and adverse reactions on the Zn anode surface, leading to high reversibility of deposition/stripping, ultra-long lifespan over 5000 h, and exceptional cumulative capacity. The formation mechanism of SEI and the composition distribution of anion-derived inorganic-rich SEI are clarified in detail. Furthermore, the Zn//Prussian blue analogue (PBA) full battery exhibits a high voltage platform of 2.1 V and delivers 99.3% capacity retention after 5000 cycles, benefiting from the synergy of the elaborate SEI and regulated electrolyte environment.

Towards high-performance zinc anode for zinc ion hybrid capacitor: Concurrently tailoring hydrodynamic stability, zinc deposition and solvation structure via electrolyte additive

Haijian Huang et al.

Summary: In this study, the addition of CMC electrolyte additive in AZICs successfully addresses the performance issues caused by zinc deposition and parasitic reactions. The CMC additive can adsorb onto the (101) facet of zinc, preventing the formation of zinc dendrites. Moreover, the interaction of CMC with Zn2+ alters the solvation structure and suppresses water-induced side reactions. This strategy significantly improves the cyclic stability of the zinc anode at both low and high rates, thus promoting the comprehensive performance of AZICs.

Monolithic Phosphate Interphase for Highly Reversible and Stable Zn Metal Anode

Sailin Liu et al.

Summary: To stabilize the zinc anode in zinc metal batteries, researchers have developed a controlled electrolytic method using a high dipole moment solvent dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) to create a monolithic solid electrolyte interphase (SEI).

Boosting ultra-long cycling and shelf life of nickel-zinc battery via guiding oriented zinc deposition and suppressing [Zn(OH)4]2-diffusion

Hongyan Yuan et al.

Summary: To address the issues of self-corrosion and uneven deposition of zinc anode in alkaline nickel-zinc batteries, polyethylene glycol (PEG-300) was introduced as an electrolyte additive. PEG-300 can selectively adsorb on the zinc anode to form a protective layer, inhibiting the tip effect and limiting the lateral diffusion of [Zn(OH)4]2-. Moreover, the long-chain molecules of PEG suppress the diffusion of [Zn(OH)4]2- from the surface of zinc anode to the bulk electrolyte, thereby inhibiting self-corrosion. Experimental results demonstrate that the assembled Ni-Zn battery with 2% PEG additive exhibits an ultra-long cycling life and excellent performance.
