Abstract:Owing
to its abundance, high theoretical capacity, and low electrode
potential, zinc is one of the most important metallic anodes for primary
and secondary batteries such as alkaline and zinc–air batteries.
In the operation of zinc-based batteries, passivation of the anode
surface plays an essential role because the electrode potential of
zinc is slightly below that of the hydrogen evolution reaction. Therefore,
it is important to scrutinize the nature of the passivation film to
achieve anticorrosion inside ba… Show more
“…The formation of the ZSH composite originates from complex decomposition owing to pH changes within the electric double layer near the Zn-metal anode, which is consistent with previous reports. 15,29,30 Moreover, the S2p spectra of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) further verified the long-term existence of ZSH in the composite layer (Fig. 2(d) and Fig.…”
The re-evaluation of zinc (Zn)-based energy storage systems satisfied the emerging demands in safety and cost-effectiveness. However, the long-standing challenges lie in the dendritic Zn morphology and consequent cell short-circuit,...

“…To test this assumption, we used an electrochemical microbalance with dissipation (EQCM-D) technique, which allows in situ monitoring of gravimetric and non-gravimetric phenomena occurring on the electrode surface during the rst Zn electrodeposition and stripping processes. [21][22][23] For comparison, Zn deposition and stripping were investigated on Cu-coated crystal and Au-coated crystal.…”
Significant efforts have been devoted to replacing standard metallic Zn anodes with diverse conductive substrates in pursuit of higher energy density, durability, and cost-effectiveness in aqueous Zn-based batteries. Despite substantial...
“…12a and b show the schematic diagrams of the setup for EQCM analysis, which is widely used to detect the change in the mass of the electrode during electrochemical processes. According to the Sauerbrey equation (Δ f = − C f Δ m ), 138 there is a linear dependence of characteristic frequency on the mass of the crystal oscillator. The vibrational frequency of the quartz crystal decreases as the weight of the working electrode increases (Fig.…”
