Abstract Aqueous Zn‐metal battery (AZMB) is a promising candidate for future large‐scale energy storage with commendable capacity, exceptional safety characteristics, and low cost. Acetonitrile (AN) has been widely used as an effective electrolyte constituent to improve AZMBs’ performance. However, its functioning mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we unveiled the critical roles of AN in AZMBs via comparative situ electrochemical, gaseous, morphological analyses. Despite limited...
Understanding zinc (Zn) deposition behavior and improving Zn stripping plating reversibility are significant in developing practical aqueous ion batteries (AZIBs). metal is abundant, cost-effective, intrinsically safe compared with Li. However, their similar inhomogeneous growth regime harms practicality. This work reports a facile, easily scalable, but effective method to develop textured unidirectional scratches on the surface that electrochemically achieves high accumulated areal capacity...

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) have shown promising suitability for grid-scale energy storage due to their affordability, intrinsic safety, and environmental-friendliness. However, the commercialization of AZIBs has been hindered by dissolution cathode instabilities Zn metal anode. Researchers worked improve cathode, anode, electrolyte, but relatively little attention given glass fiber (GF) membrane often used as separator. As such, we compare four commonly GF membranes (Whatman™ GF/A,...
