Abstract The undesirable side reactions and uncontrolled deposition leads to the electrochemical failure of Zn metal anodes. Herein, driven by theory calculations, a surface texture engineering passivation layer protection dual‐interface strategy is developed. Benefiting from complementary interface effect, such can realize integrated regulation interfacial transport deposition. That is, inhibiting water‐induced reactions, accelerating de‐solvation hydrated zinc ions, homogenizing ion flux, guiding Zn(002)‐preferred orientation As result, modulated electrode enables significantly extended stability smaller nucleation barrier polarization effect. Unexpectedly, it steadily operate for 6600 h at 0.5 mA cm −2 , corresponding lifespan >9 months. Highly reversible plating stripping be still retained when current density improved up 1, 5, 10, even 20 . Beyond that, applied batteries, enhanced rate capability, cyclic realized in both aqueous Zn/MnO 2 batteries solid‐state Zn/VO batteries.

Abstract Achieving a highly robust zinc (Zn) metal anode is extremely important for improving the performance of aqueous Zn-ion batteries (AZIBs) advancing “carbon neutrality” society, which hampered by uncontrollable growth Zn dendrite and severe side reactions including hydrogen evolution reaction, corrosion, passivation, etc. Herein, an interlayer containing fluorinated zincophilic covalent organic framework with sulfonic acid groups (COF-S-F) developed on (Zn@COF-S-F) as artificial solid electrolyte interface (SEI). 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%). Enlightening, building SEI metallic surface targeted design has been proved effective strategy to foster practical application high-performance AZIBs.

Abstract The electrochemical performance of aqueous zinc metal batteries (AZMBs) is highly dependent on the electric double layer (EDL) properties at Zn electrode/electrolyte interface. Herein, a novel reconfigured EDL constructed via double‐charged theanine (TN) additive for super‐stable and deep‐rechargeable AZMBs. Experiments theoretical computations unravel that positively charged TN not only serves as preferential anchor to form water‐poor Helmholtz plane onto anode, but also its anionic end could coordinate with 2+ tailor solvation structure in diffusion further reconstruct inner H‐bonds networks, thus effectively guiding uniform deposition suppressing water‐induced side reactions. Consequently, Zn//Zn cells acquire outstanding cycling stabilities nearly 800 h high depth discharge 80%. Moreover, Zn//VOX full deliver substantial capacity retention (94.12% after 1400 cycles 2 A g −1 ) under practical conditions. Importantly, designed 2.7 Ah pouch cell harvests recorded energy density 42.3 Wh Kg 79.5 L –1 , remarkable 85.93% 220 50 mA . This innovative design concept reshape chemistry would inject fresh vitality into developing advanced AZMBs beyond.

Uncontrollable dendrite growth and sluggish ion-transport kinetics are considered as the main obstacles for further development of high-performance aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs). Here, a nature-inspired separator (ZnHAP/BC) is developed to tackle these issues via hybridization biomass-derived bacterial cellulose (BC) network nano-hydroxyapatite particles (HAP). The as-prepared ZnHAP/BC not only regulates desolvation process hydrated Zn2+ ions (Zn(H2 O)62+ ) by suppressing water reactivity through surface functional groups, alleviating water-induced side-reactions, but also boosts homogenize flux, resulting in fast uniform Zn deposition. Remarkably, Zn|Zn symmetric cell with harvests long-term stability over 1600 h at 1 mA cm-2 , mAh endures stable cycling 1025 611 even high depth discharge (DOD) 50% 80%, respectively. Zn|V2 O5 full low negative/positive (N/P) capacity ratio 2.7 achieves superior retention 82% after 2500 cycles 10 A g-1 . Furthermore, Zn/HAP can be totally degraded within 2 weeks. This work develops novel nature-derived provides insights constructing separators toward sustainable advanced AZIBs.
