Abstract:Aqueous zinc-metal batteries are promising for large-scale energy storage owing to their reasonable energy density, safety and low cost. However, their practical applications are limited by hydrogen evolution, corrosion, and dendrite formation of Zn anode and there is trade-off between efficiency and stability at high and low temperatures. Herein, we propose a solvation chemistry regulation strategy that can adjust the Zn2+-solvation structure and in situ form a robust and Zn2+-conducting Zn5(CO3)2(OH)6 SEI on… 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.
