Tuning Zn2+ coordination environment to suppress dendrite formation for high-performance Zn-ion batteries
Abstract
Abstract The short-circuit issue induced by Zn dendrite growth restricts the commercialization of rechargeable aqueous Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs). Herein, ethylene glycol (EG), a representative of dihydric alcohols, is applied in the aqueous electrolyte to inhibit the detrimental dendrite growth on Zn anode. Our work demonstrates a uniform Zn plating/stripping in H2O/EG hybrid electrolyte with cycling lifespan of up to 2668 h at 0.5 mA cm−2, which is made possible by the substitution of EG for H2O in the solvation sheath of Zn2+ ions. Such a change in the coordination environment of Zn2+ gives rise to decreased diffusivity of the ions and increased over-potential for nucleation, further resulting in even deposition morphology rather than large-scale dendrites. Side reactions are also circumvented by the formation of hydrogen bonds. All these aspects work in synergy to promote the cyclability of the assembled full battery. The low-cost aqueous electrolyte identified in this work opens up new opportunities for manipulating the coordination environments of Zn2+ ions and optimizing the Zn deposition morphology during the design of high-performance ZIBs.

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.
