Abstract:Aqueous Zn-based energy storage devices have broad prospects in the direction of large-scale energy storage, but the Zn anode still has problems, such as poor reversibility and unsatisfactory performance at low temperature. Due to the influence of thermodynamics at low temperature, the dissolution of the Zn ion becomes more difficult, which will intensify the growth of Zn dendrites. In this study, amphiphilic-ion Betaine (Bet) was introduced into 2 M ZnSO 4 aqueous electrolyte as an antifreeze to improve the s… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
