Hard carbon (HC) is a promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries, yet still suffers from low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) and unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). Herein, sodium diphenyl ketone (Na-DK) applied to realize dual-function presodiation HC anodes. It compensates the irreversible Na uptake at oxygen-containing functional groups reacts with defects of five/seven-membered rings quasi-metallic in HC.

The commercialization of high-voltage lithium (Li) metal batteries (LMBs) has been severely hindered due to the lack advanced electrolytes that can simultaneously support a stable anode (LMA) and cathode (>4 V vs Li+/Li). Here, we propose tetrahydropyran (THP)-based weakly solvating electrolyte (WSE) regulate Li+ solvation structures interfacial behaviors. anion-rich in THP-based WSE effectively promotes formation inorganic-rich solid interphase (SEI) layers, firm (CEI) films, protective passivation films on an Al current collector. optimized behaviors contribute highly compact Li deposition, stability, inhibition transition ion dissolution corrosion. Finally, Li||LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 full cell delivered cycling performance at high cutoff voltages 4.3 even 4.5 V. This study demonstrates exciting approach enable ether-based for LMBs could be developed other battery systems.

Abstract Aqueous Zn−ion batteries (AZIBs) promise appealing advantages including safety, affordability, and high volumetric energy density. However, rampant parasitic reactions dendrite growth result in inadequate Zn reversibility. Here, a biocompatible additive, L‐asparagine (Asp), low‐cost aqueous electrolyte, is introduced to address these concerns. Combining substantive verification tests theoretical calculations, it demonstrated that an Asp‐containing ZnSO 4 electrolyte can create robust nanostructured solid‐electrolyte interface (SEI) by simultaneously modulating the 2+ solvation structure optimizing metal‐molecule interface, which enables dense deposition. The optimized supports excellent reversibility achieving dendrite‐free plating/stripping over 240 h at utilization of 85.5% symmetrical cell average 99.6% Coulombic efficiency for 1600 cycles asymmetrical cell. Adequate full‐cell performance with poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) intercalated vanadium oxide (PEDOT‐V 2 O 5 ) cathode, delivers areal capacity 4.62 mAh cm −2 holds 84.4% retention 200 under practical conditions ultrathin anode (20 µm) low negative/positive ratio (≈2.4). This engineering strategy provides new insights into regulating anode/electrolyte interfacial chemistries toward high‐performance AZIBs.

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries are emerging as one of the most promising large-scale energy storage systems due to their low cost and high safety. However, Zn anodes often encounter problems dendrite growth, hydrogen evolution reaction, formation by-products. Herein, we developed ionic association electrolytes (LIAEs) by introducing 2, 2-trifluoroethanol (TFE) into 30 m ZnCl 2 electrolyte. Owing electron-withdrawing effect -CF 3 groups in TFE molecules, LIAEs, 2+ solvation structures convert from larger aggregate clusters smaller parts will construct H-bonds with H O structure simultaneously. Consequently, migration kinetics significantly enhanced ionization solvated is effectively suppressed LIAEs. As a result, LIAE display fast plating/stripping Coulombic efficiency 99.74%. The corresponding full exhibit an improved comprehensive performance such high-rate capability long cycling life.

The solvation structure of Li+ plays a significant role in determining the physicochemical properties electrolytes. However, to date, there is still no clear definition solvating power different electrolyte solvents, and even solvents that preferentially participate remain controversial. In this study, we comprehensively discuss process ions using both experimental characterizations theoretical calculations. Our findings reveal dependent on strength -solvent (ion-dipole) interaction. Additionally, uncover anions tend enter sheath most systems through -anion (ion-ion) interaction, which weakened by shielding effect solvents. competition between interactions ultimately determines final structures. This insight into fundamental understanding provides inspiration for design multifunctional mixed-solvent electrolytes advanced batteries.

Sodium-sulfur (Na-S) batteries with durable Na-metal stability, shuttle-free cyclability, and long lifespan are promising to large-scale energy storages. However, meeting these stringent requirements poses huge challenges the existing electrolytes. Herein, a localized saturated electrolyte (LSE) is proposed 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (MeTHF) as an inner sheath solvent, which represents new category of for Na-S system. Unlike traditional high concentration electrolytes, LSE realized low salt-to-solvent ratio diluent-to-solvent ratio, pushes limit (LHCE). The appropriate molecular structure solvation ability MeTHF regulate sheath, features reinforced coordination Na+ anions, enlarged -solvent distance, weakened anion-diluent interaction. Such configuration found be key build sustainable interphase quasi-solid-solid sulfur redox process, making dendrite-inhibited battery possible. With this electrolyte, pouch cells decent cycling performance under rather demanding conditions demonstrated.
