“…Moreover, after the 100th cycle, the discharge capacities were 193.5 mAh g −1 and 137.0 mAh g −1 , re-spectively; hence, the performance of the anode including Bi@CMC was higher than that of pristine CMC. Notably, the discharge specific capacity of the Zn-Ni battery in this study was lower than that of our previous work and others, [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] because the electrolyte used here was 6 M KOH and lacked ZnO. To address the dissolution of a ZnO electrode in an alkaline electrolyte, dissolving saturated or nearly saturated ZnO in a KOH solution in advance has been widely employed, and high-performance Zn-Ni batteries have been obtained.…”
