Zinc dendrite growth and inhibition strategies

Zuo, Y., Wang, K., Pei, P., Wei, M., Liu, X., Xiao, Y., Zhang, P.·2021·Materials Today Energy

Abstract

Abstract Zinc is an ideal energy carrier due to its high energy density, low cost and environmental friendliness. However, dendrite growth during plating/stripping hinders the practical application of zinc-based secondary batteries. Although inhibition strategies have been proposed in recent years to eliminate the negative effects of zinc dendrites, the problem of dendrite growth is still unresolved. Therefore, understanding the formation mechanism of zinc dendrites is necessary to guide the inhibition strategies of zinc dendrite growth. The mechanism of zinc dendrite growth is investigated and the related inhibition strategies are summarized in this review. Firstly, the physicochemical properties of zinc, and advantages and disadvantages of zinc electrode are described in detail. Secondly, the nucleation and dendrite growth of zinc are analyzed based on the existing theoretical models of zinc dendrite growth, pointing out the key factors affecting the nucleation and growth behavior of zinc dendrites. Thirdly, the measures to optimize the electric field distribution on the electrode surface are summarized, enhancing the migration of zinc ions and dendrite-free zinc deposition. Lastly, the challenges and the expectations for zinc-based batteries in the future development are presented.

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.
