Toward a Reversible Mn4+/Mn2+ Redox Reaction and Dendrite‐Free Zn Anode in Near‐Neutral Aqueous Zn/MnO2 Batteries via Salt Anion Chemistry

Abstract

Rechargeable aqueous Zn/MnO 2 batteries are very attractive large‐scale energy storage technologies, but still suffer from limited cycle life and low capacity. Here the novel adoption of a near‐neutral acetate‐based electrolyte (pH ≈ 6) is presented to promote the two‐electron Mn 4+/Mn 2+ redox reaction and simultaneously enable a stable Zn anode. The acetate anion triggers a highly reversible MnO 2/Mn 2+ reaction, which ensures high capacity and avoids the issue of structural collapse of MnO 2. Meanwhile, the anode‐friendly electrolyte enables a dendrite‐free Zn anode with outstanding stability and high plating/stripping Coulombic efficiency (99.8%). Hence, a high capacity of 556 mA h g−1, a lifetime of 4000 cycles without decay, and excellent rate capability up to 70 mA cm−2 are demonstated in this new near‐neutral aqueous Zn/MnO 2 battery by simply manipulating the salt anion in the electrolyte. The acetate anion not only modifies the surface properties of MnO 2 cathode but also creates a highly compatible environment for the Zn anode. This work provides a new opportunity for developing high‐performance Zn/MnO 2 and other aqueous batteries based on the salt anion chemistry.

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.
