Published: July 19, 2024

Abstract As the “star of hope” for next‐generation high‐energy‐density batteries, lithium–sulfur batteries (Li–S batteries) face severe challenges such as reserves, costs, and safety, which seriously restrict their practical application. Alternatively, research on multivalent metals (e.g., Mg, Ca, Al, Zn, etc.) anodes, characterized by less reactivity higher natural abundance, is gaining increasing attention urgent demand. However, metal–sulfur (M–S) battery technology based metal anodes still in its infancy not yet mature This review provides insights into prospects M–S covering fundamental mechanisms, key issues, response strategies, latest advancements flexible/micro energy storage devices. Furthermore, a general perspective future directions are also presented this review. aims to explore opportunities emerging support development systems.

Published: Aug. 10, 2024

Abstract The uneven formation of lithium dendrites during electroplating/stripping leads to a decrease in the utilization active lithium, resulting poor cycling stability and posing safety hazards battery. Herein, introducing 3D continuously interconnected zirconium‐based metal‐organic framework (MOF808) network into polyethylene oxide polymer matrix establishes synergistic mechanism for dendrite inhibition. MOF808 maintains its large pore structure, facilitating increased salt accommodation, expands anion adsorption at unsaturated metal sites through diverse large‐space cage thereby promoting flow Li + . Infrared‐Raman synchrotron small‐angle X‐ray scattering results demonstrate that transport behavior ion clusters MOF/polymer interface verifies local flux concentration, raising mobility number 0.42 ensuring uniform distribution, leading dendrite‐free homogeneous deposition. Furthermore, nanoindentation tests reveal high modulus elastic recovery MOF‐based electrolytes contribute forming robust, dendrite‐resistant interface. Consequently, symmetric battery systems, system exhibits minimal overpotential, merely 35 mV, while maintaining stable over 1800 h, achieving low–overpotential Moreover, it retains redox under voltages up 5.3 V.
