Abstract

Aqueous Zn‐ion batteries have aroused much attention recently, yet challenges still exist in the lack of low‐cost, highly stable electrolytes to tackle the serious side reactions at Zn anode–electrolyte interface. Herein, a ZnSO 4‐based low‐cost aqueous electrolyte is demonstrated with a small amount of eco‐friendly silk peptide as an efficient additive. Compared with silk sericin and fibroin, silk peptide with abundant strong polar groups (COOH and NH 2) suppresses the side reactions. Namely, silk peptide regulates the solvation structure of Zn 2+ to decrease coordinated active H 2 O and SO 42−, and tends to anchor on Zn anode surface for the isolation of contact H 2 O/SO 42− as well as electrostatic shielding, demonstrating synergistic solvation and interface regulating effect. Consequently, the excellent cycle life (3000 h) and Coulombic efficiency (99.7%) of Zn anodes are revealed in 2 m ZnSO 4 electrolyte with only 5 mg mL−1 of silk peptide (≈0.49 USD L−1), promising practical applications of reversible zinc‐ion batteries.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
