Realizing an All‐Round Hydrogel Electrolyte toward Environmentally Adaptive Dendrite‐Free Aqueous Zn–MnO2 Batteries

Abstract

Flexible energy storage devices are at the forefront of next‐generation power supplies, one of the most important components of which is the gel electrolyte. However, shortcomings exist, more or less, for all the currently developed hydrogel electrolytes. Herein, a facile and cost‐effective method is developed to construct an all‐round hydrogel electrolyte by using cotton as the raw material, tetraethyl orthosilicate as the crosslinker, and glycerol as the antifreezing agent. The obtained hydrogel electrolyte has high ionic conductivity, excellent mechanical properties (e.g., high tensile strength and elasticity), ultralow freezing point, good self‐healing ability, high adhesion, and good heat‐resistance ability. Remarkably, this hydrogel electrolyte can provide a record‐breaking high ionic conductivity of 19.4 mS cm−1 at −40 °C compared with previously reported aqueous electrolytes for zinc‐ion batteries. In addition, this hydrogel electrolyte can significantly inhibit zinc dendritic growth and parasitic side reactions from −40 to 60 °C. With this hydrogel electrolyte, a flexible quasi‐solid‐state Zn–MnO 2 battery is assembled, which shows remarkable energy densities from −40 to 60 °C. The battery also exhibits outstanding cycling durability and has high endurance under various harsh conditions. This work opens new opportunities for the development of hydrogel electrolytes.

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.
