Abstract Aqueous Zn‐ion batteries featuring with intrinsic safety and low cost are highly desirable for large‐scale energy storage, but the unstable Zn‐metal anode resulting from uncontrollable dendrite growth grievous hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) shortens their cycle life. Herein, a feasible in situ self‐reconfiguration strategy is developed to generate triple‐gradient poly(diallyldimethylammonium) bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (PDDA‐TFSI)‐Zn 5 (OH) 8 Cl 2 ·H O‐Sn (PT‐ZHC‐Sn) artificial layer. The interface consists of spherical top layer PT cation confinement H O inhibition, dense intermediate ZHC nanosheet Zn 2+ conduction electron shielding, bottom Znophilic Sn metal. well‐designed interfacial synergistically facilitates rapid diffusion regulate uniform deposition accelerates desolvation process while suppressing HER. Consequently, PT‐ZHC‐Sn@Zn symmetric cell achieves an ultralong lifespan over 6500 h at 0.5 mA cm −2 mAh . Furthermore, full battery coupling MnO cathode exhibits 17.2% increase capacity retention compared bare after 1000 cycles. also applied prepare PT‐ZHC‐In, assembled Zn//Cu operates steadily 8400 maintaining Coulombic efficiency 99.6%. This work paves way designing multicomponent gradient stable anodes.

The solar-driven photorechargeable zinc-ion batteries have emerged as a promising power solution for smart electronic devices and equipment. However, the subpar cyclic stability of Zn anode remains significant impediment to their practical application. Herein, poly(diethynylbenzene-1,3,5-triimine-2,4,6-trione) (PDPTT) was designed functional polymer coating Zn. Theoretical calculations demonstrate that PDPTT not only significantly homogenizes electric field distribution on surface, but also promotes ion-accessible surface With multiple N C=O groups exhibiting strong adsorption energies, this reduces nucleation overpotential Zn, alters diffusion pathway

Abstract Zinc metal is a promising anode candidate for aqueous zinc ion batteries due to its high theoretical capacity, low cost, and safety. However, application currently restricted by hydrogen evolution reactions (HER), by‐product formation, Zn dendrite growth. Herein, “Zn 2+ in salt” (ZIS) interphase situ constructed on the surface of (ZIS@Zn). Unlike conventional water” working environment anodes, intrinsic hydrophobicity ZIS isolates from direct contact with electrolyte, thereby protecting it HER, accompanying side reactions. More importantly, works as an ordered water‐free ion‐conducting medium, which guides uniform deposition facilitates rapid migration at interface. As result, symmetric cells assembled ZIS@Zn exhibit dendrite‐free plating/striping 4500 h critical current 14 mA cm −2 . When matched vanadium‐based (NVO) cathode, full battery exhibits excellent long‐term cycling stability, 88% capacity retention after 1600 cycles.

Abstract Rechargeable aqueous zinc‐ion (Zn‐ion) batteries are widely regarded as important candidates for next‐generation energy storage systems low‐cost renewable storage. However, the development of Zn‐ion is currently facing significant challenges due to uncontrollable Zn dendrite growth and severe parasitic reactions on metal anodes. Herein, we report an effective strategy improve performance by leveraging self‐assembly bovine serum albumin (BSA) into a bilayer configuration BSA′s hydrophilic hydrophobic fragments form unique intelligent ion channels, which regulate migration ions facilitate their desolvation process, significantly diminishing anodes leading uniform deposition along (002) plane. Notably, Zn||Zn symmetric cell with BSA electrolyte additive demonstrated stable cycling up 2400 hours at high current density 10 mA cm −2 . This work demonstrates pivotal role self‐assembled protein structures in improving durability batteries.
