Published: Feb. 18, 2025

Abstract Zinc anode suffers from tough issues such as dendrite, corrosion, and hydrogen evolution, which lead to premature battery failure thus restrict the practical application of aqueous zinc‐metal batteries (ZMABs). Herein, a polydentate‐ligand tactic is introduced reconstruct solvation structure, improve corrosion resistance, trigger selective dendrite‐free deposition via β‐Alanyl‐L‐histidine (AH). With abundant amino, amide, carboxyl, imidazolyl groups, AH shows chelation effect, partially substitutes solvated SO 4 2− enters Zn 2+ sheath facilitate desolvation. Those groups also increase strong H‐bond proportion electrolyte, stabilizing water suppressing evolution reactions. Moreover, with multisite coordination, preferentially adsorbs on Zn(002) induce stable functional C, N, O, S‐rich solid‐electrolyte interphase zincophilic hydrophobic properties. It homogenizes both electric field concentration guides preferential growth along (002), realizing anode. As result, obtained electrolyte exhibits high CE 99.28%, extended stability over 6000 h, long lifespan 1000 cycles for Zn//MnO 2 batteries. This work offers novel design strategy additive toward stabilization anodes ZMABs.

With the continuous development of new energy application technology, there is an increasingly urgent need for safety and affordability storage products. In recent years, aqueous zinc-ion batteries based on mild electrolytes have garnered widespread attention as a potential replacement traditional lithium-ion batteries. However, limited capacity low operating voltage restrict their application. For this reason, sulfuric acid was added to electrolyte, which effectively promotes two-electron conversion MnO₂/Mn²⁺ during discharge process. This enhancement results in high-voltage segment batteries' phase offering higher reversible specific capacity. The showed that with 0.1 M H₂SO₄ electrolyte had up 536.07 mAh·g^-1 at current density 100 mA·g^-1. activated exhibited 85.11 even high 1 A·g^-1. Furthermore, retention rate after 1,000 cycles 88.3%. Moreover, activation faster addition H₂SO₄, average increased compared without electrolyte. provides effective solution practical power grids.
