Abstract Zn–air batteries (ZABs) are promising next‐generation energy storage devices due to their low cost, intrinsic safety, and environmental benignity. However, the sluggish kinetics of cathodic reactions severely limits ZAB performances in practical use, calling for high‐efficiency bifunctional oxygen reduction evolution electrocatalysts. Herein, an ultrahigh‐active electrocatalyst is developed with a record‐low Δ E 0.56 V, significantly outperforming noble‐metal‐based benchmark (Pt/C+Ir/C, = 0.77 V) many other reported electrocatalysts (mostly ≥ 0.60 V). The nanoscale composite Fe‐based single‐atom sites nanosized layered double hydroxides endows high conductivity large active surface that afford strengthened electron conduction ion transport pathways. Furthermore, remarkable improvement stability realized following current division principle. ZABs deliver peak power density 198 mW cm −2 excellent cycling durability over 6000 cycles. Moreover, ampere‐hour‐scale constructed cycled under 1.0 A Ah conditions. This work breaks activity record electrocatalysis expands potential sustainable storage.

Опубликована: Март 17, 2025

Abstract The commercial utilization of low‐dimensional catalysts has been hindered by their propensity for agglomeration and stacking, greatly minimizing active sites. To circumvent this problem, materials can be assembled into systematic 3D architectures to synergistically retain the benefits constituent nanomaterials, with value‐added bulk properties such as increased surface area, improved charge transport pathways, enhanced mass transfer, leading higher catalytic activity durability compared constituents. hierarchical organization building blocks within structures also enables precise control over catalyst's morphology, composition, chemistry, facilitating tailored design specific electrochemical applications. Despite surge in metal‐based assemblies, there are no reviews encompassing different types assemblies from nanomaterials electrocatalysis. Herein, review addresses gap investigating various self‐supported exploring how electrocatalytic performance elevated through structural modifications mechanistic studies tailor them reactions.
