This study demonstrates the in situ formation of a dense, stable, and highly Zn2+-conductive SEI layer (hopeite) in aqueous Zn chemistry by introducing Zn(H2PO4)(2) salt, which enables uniform and rapid Zn-ion transport kinetics and restrains side reactions. Under practical testing conditions, the Zn/V2O5 full cell retains 94.4% of its original capacity after 500 cycles, showing great potential for high-performance aqueous battery technology.
Rechargeable aqueous Zn-ion batteries promise high capacity, low cost, high safety, and sustainability for large-scale energy storage. The Zn metal anode, however, suffers from the dendrite growth and side reactions that are mainly due to the absence of an appropriate solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer. Herein, the in situ formation of a dense, stable, and highly Zn2+-conductive SEI layer (hopeite) in aqueous Zn chemistry is demonstrated, by introducing Zn(H2PO4)(2) salt into the electrolyte. The hopeite SEI (approximate to 140 nm thickness) enables uniform and rapid Zn-ion transport kinetics for dendrite-free Zn deposition, and restrains the side reactions via isolating active Zn from the bulk electrolyte. Under practical testing conditions with an ultrathin Zn anode (10 mu m), a low negative/positive capacity ratio (approximate to 2.3), and a lean electrolyte (9 mu L mAh(-1)), the Zn/V2O5 full cell retains 94.4% of its original capacity after 500 cycles. This work provides a simple yet practical solution to high-performance aqueous battery technology via building in situ SEI layers.
