Abstract Although polymer electrolytes have shown great potential in solid‐state lithium metal batteries (LMBs), the chain segments anchor movement of ions (Li + ), which induces low ionic conductivity and limits their application. Herein, a strategy harnessing ion‐dipole interactions is proposed to liberate from chains. The adiponitrile (ADN) molecular dipole with strong bond moment (C≡N, 11.8 × 10 −30 C m) introduced into polyvinylidene fluoride‐co‐hexafluoropropylene (PVDF‐HFP) matrix, achieving an electrolyte high 5.1 −4 S cm −1 at 30 °C. It demonstrated that interaction between C≡N Li weakens F···…Li , facilitating dissociation liberating Moreover, hybrid unsaturated solvation structure formed ADN dipole, PVDF‐HFP chain, TFSI − anion, corresponding solvent‐separated ion pair (SSIP) structure. Thus, obtained realizes lithium‐ion transference number (0.74). Consequently, assembled symmetric cell delivers stable stripping/plating reversibility over 900 h.

Zn metal anodes in mildly acidic electrolytes usually suffer from a series of problems, including parasitic dendrite growth and severe side reactions, significantly limiting the utilization efficiency cycling life. A deep understanding stripping/plating process is essential to obtain high-efficiency long-life anodes. Here, factors affecting are revealed, suggesting that thermodynamic uniformity bulk structures promotes an orderly stripping process, fast kinetic diffusion rate on surface facilitates uniform deposition. Then, co-optimized strategy for stabilizing proposed, which confirmed effectively suppress reactions. Thus, modified display record-breaking lives 1200 200 h under ultrahigh efficiencies 80 93.5%, respectively. More importantly, using this anode enables us realize Ah-level pouch cells continuous cycles harsh conditions.

Abstract The vulnerable Zn electrode interface with uncontrolled dendrite growth and severe parasitic side reactions constrains the practical application of aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (AZIBs). General engineering offers a promising approach to relieve these issues but is limited by confined functionality, low affinity, additional weight protective layer. In this study, bilayer silane film (SF) developed hydrophobic, ion‐buffering, strong interfacial adhesion properties through precise assembly coupling agents. well‐designed SF layer enables 2+ undergo continuous processes, including being captured –CF 3 groups, followed in sequence inducing desolvation, directed diffusing nanochannels, buffered diffusion. This multiple process contributed accelerated [Zn(H 2 O) 6 ] stabilized transport, inhibited reactions. Consequently, dendrite‐free highly reversible SF@Zn anodes are realized, exhibiting an ultra‐long lifetime (more than 4300 h), high Coulombic efficiency (CE) (99.1% after 2600 cycles), superior full cell capacity retention (83.2% 1000 cycles). innovative strategy provides novel method enhance anode stability via molecular‐level design multicomponent reaction, offering new insights into advanced for AZIBs.
