Abstract:Aqueous Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) have acquired more and
more attention
owing to their intrinsically high safety, environmental friendliness,
low cost, and high power density. However, Zn dendrite growth, side
reactions, and cathode dissolution caused by the high activity of
free water hamper the practical applications of ZIBs. In this work,
we report an organics/H2O hybrid aqueous electrolyte that
is composed of 50 wt % polyethylene glycol (PEG), 10 wt % ethanol
(EtOH), and 40 wt % H2O to address these issues. … Show more
