Abstract Aqueous Zn‐ion batteries (AZIBs) are considered a promising candidate for large‐scale energy storage application owing to their high capacity, good safety, low cost, and environmental friendliness. However, the presence of active water leads issues such as corrosion, dendrite growth hydrogen evolution reaction on Zn metal anodes, severely limiting cycle lifetime reversibility AZIBs. To address these challenges, this study introduces simple drop‐casting method deposit composite protective coating 2D titanium carbide (Ti 3 C 2 T x ) MXene polyethyleneimine (PEI) surface foil, i.e., MXene/PEI@Zn. The MXene/PEI contains polar groups −OH that can regulate deposition. Additionally, prevent from directly contacting surface. results show MXene/PEI@Zn anodes over 2600 1100 h at corresponding current density 1 5 mA cm −2 (Areal capacity: mAh ). When paired with V O ·1.6H cathode, it contributes evidently improved full‐cell performance 85% capacity retention after 4800 cycles A g −1 . This work provides new insights into practical design highly reversible anodes.

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) have gained increasing attention for grid energy storage systems. However, ensuring the long-term reversible operation of zinc anode remains a challenge due to dendrite growth and adverse side reactions during charge discharge cycles. This study investigates use d-pantothenic acid (D-PA) as an additive in 2 M ZnSO4 aqueous electrolyte enhance cycling stability AZIBs. Experimental results theoretical calculations demonstrate that D-PA reshapes solvation structure Zn2+ by partially replacing coordinated water molecules, transport. Furthermore, adsorbs on active sites anode, surface overpotential (|ηs|), reducing nucleation barrier, decreasing critical nucleus size (rcrit), thus uniform deposition. dual role modifying shell regulating effectively mitigates suppresses reactions, resulting excellent anode.
