Sulfonic group (− SO 3 H) in COF-S-F can effectively ameliorate desolvation process hydrated ions, three-dimensional channel fluoride (-F) provide interconnected channels favorable transport ions ion-confinement effects, endowing Zn@COF-S-F dendrite-free morphology suppressed reactions. Consequently, symmetric cell stably cycle 1,000 h low average hysteresis voltage (50.5 mV) at current density 1.5 mA cm −2 . Zn@COF-S-F|MnO 2 delivers discharge specific capacity 206.8 mAh g −1 1.2 A after 800 cycles high-capacity retention (87.9%).

Zn metal, as one of the most promising anode materials for aqueous batteries, suffers from uncontrollable dendrite growth and water-induced parasitic reactions, which drastically compromise its cycle life Coulombic efficiency (CE). Herein, a nonionic amphipathic additive Tween-20 (TW20) is proposed that bears both zincophilic hydrophobic units. The segment TW20 preferentially adsorbs on anode, while exposed electrolyte side, forming an electrolyte-facing layer shields active water molecules. Moreover, theoretical calculation experimental results reveal can induce preferential (002) plane by adsorbing other facets, enabling dendrite-free anodes. Benefitting these advantages, stability reversibility anodes are substantially improved, reflected stable cycling over 2500 h at 1.0 mA cm
