A cathode/anode compatible aqueous zinc triflate electrolyte is proposed by reorganizing the solvation structure of the electrolyte using an acetonitrile co-solvent. Acetonitrile notably alters the hydrogen bonds of the electrolyte, reducing the activity of water. Using this electrolyte, a ZnǁV2O5 full-cell exhibits high Coulombic efficiency, long cycle life and high rate capability. The interactions between electrolyte, cathode and Zn anode are clarified based on comprehensive in operando and ex situ experiments and molecular dynamics simulations. The addition of acetonitrile does not change the bulk ion storage of V2O5, but the unique electrode-electrolyte interfacial films with specific compositions and spatial distribution protect the Zn and V2O5 electrodes and improve the interfacial kinetics of the electrodes, thus significantly promoting the cycling performance of the full cell. This cathode/anode compatible electrolyte can overcome the challenges of both the cathode and anode which would promote aqueous rechargeable zinc batteries into practical application.

揭开用于高性能水系可充电锌电池的阴极/阳极兼容电解质

通过使用乙腈助溶剂重组电解质的溶剂化结构,提出了一种阴极/阳极相容的三氟甲磺酸锌水溶液。乙腈显着改变了电解质的氢键,降低了水的活性。使用这种电解质,ZnǁV 2 O 5全电池表现出高库仑效率、长循环寿命和高倍率性能。基于全面原位和非原位实验以及分子动力学模拟,阐明了电解质、正极和锌负极之间的相互作用。添加乙腈不会改变 V 2 O 5的本体离子存储,但具有特定成分和空间分布的独特的电极-电解质界面膜保护了Zn和V 2 O 5电极,改善了电极的界面动力学,从而显着提高了全电池的循环性能。这种阴极/阳极兼容的电解质可以克服阴极和阳极的挑战,这将促进水性可充电锌电池进入实际应用。
