Abstract
Aqueous zinc ion batteries have received widespread attention due to their merits of high safety, high theoretical specific capacity, low cost, and environmental benignity. Nevertheless, the irreversible issues of Zn anode deriving from side reactions and dendrite growth have hindered its commercialization in large-scale energy storage systems. Herein, a zinc phosphate tetrahydrate (Zn3(PO4)2·4H2O, ZnPO) coating layer is in situ formed on the bare Zn by spontaneous redox reactions at room temperature to tackle the above issues. Particularly, the dense and brick-like ZnPO layer can effectively separate the anode surface from the aqueous electrolyte, thus suppressing the serious side reactions. Moreover, the ZnPO layer with high ionic conductivity, high Zn2+ transference number, and low nucleation barrier permits rapid Zn2+ transport and enables uniform Zn deposition, ensuring dendrite-free Zn deposition. As a result, the ZnPO@Zn symmetric battery achieves a high Coulombic efficiency of 99.8% and displays ultrahigh cycle stability over 6000 h (> 8 months), far surpassing its counterparts. Furthermore, the ZnPO@Zn||MnO2 full battery exhibits excellent electrochemical performances. Therefore, this work provides a new reference for simple and large-scale preparation of highly reversible Zn metal anodes, and has great potential for practical applications.

Boosting H + Storage in Aqueous Zinc Ion Batteries via Integrating Redox-Active Sites into Hydrogen-Bonded Organic Frameworks with Strong π-π Stacking. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202314411. [PMID: 37897193 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202314411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023]
Abstract
In the emerging aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs), proton (H+ ) with the smallest molar mass and fast (de)coordination kinetics is considered as the most ideal charge carrier compared with Zn2+ counterpart, however, searching for new hosting materials for H+ storage is still at its infancy. Herein, redox-active hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) assembled from diaminotriazine moiety decorated hexaazatrinnphthalene (HOF-HATN) are for the first time developed as the stable cathode hosting material for boosting H+ storage in AZIBs. The unique integration of hydrogen-bonding networks and strong π-π stacking endow it rapid Grotthuss proton conduction, stable supramolecular structure and inclined H+ storage. As a consequence, HOF-HATN displays a high capacity (320 mAh g-1 at 0.05 A g-1 ) and robust cyclability of (>10000 cycles at 5 A g-1 ) based on three-step cation coordination storage. These findings get insight into the proton transport and storage behavior in HOFs and provide the molecular engineering strategy for constructing well-defined cathode hosting materials for rechargeable aqueous batteries.

Abstract
Aqueous rechargeable multivalent metal-ion batteries (ARMMBs) have attracted considerable attention due to their high capacity, high energy density, and low cost. However, their performance is often limited by low temperature operation, which requires the development of anti-freezing electrolytes. In this review, we summarize the anti-freezing mechanisms and optimization strategies of anti-freezing electrolytes for aqueous batteries (especially for Zn-ion batteries). Besides, we investigate the possible interactions and side reactions between electrolytes and electrodes. We also analyze the problems between electrolytes and electrodes at low temperature, and propose possible solutions. The research progress in the field of low temperature energy storage for aqueous Mg-ion, Ca-ion, and Al-ion batteries, and the challenges faced in their anti-freezing electrolytes are investigated in detail. Last but not least, the outlook on the energy storage applications of ARMMBs is provided to guide the future research.

Abstract
Layered manganese dioxide is a promising cathode candidate for aqueous Zn-ion batteries. However, the narrow interlayer spacing, inferior intrinsic electronic conductivity and poor structural stability still limit its practical application. Herein, we report a two-step strategy to incorporate ammonium ions into manganese dioxide (named as AMO) nanosheets as a cathode for boosted Zn ion storage. K+ -intercalated δ-MnO2 nanosheets (KMO) grown on carbon cloth are chosen as the self-involved precursor. Of note, ammonium ions could replace K+ ions via a facile hydrothermal reaction to enlarge the lattice space and form hydrogen-bond networks. Compared with KMO, the structural stability and the ion transfer kinetics of the layered AMO are enhanced. As expected, the obtained AMO cathode exhibits remarkable electrochemical properties in terms of high reversible capacity, decent rate performance and superior cycling stability over 10000 cycles.

Abstract
High-capacity small organic materials are plagued by their high solubility. Here we proposed constructing hydrogen bond networks (HBN) via intermolecular hydrogen bonds to suppress the solubility of active material. The illustrated 2, 7- diamino-4, 5, 9, 10-tetraone (PTO-NH2 ) molecule with intermolecular hydrogen (H) bond between O in -C=O and H in -NH2 , which make PTO-NH2 presents transverse two-dimensional extension and longitudinal π-π stacking structure. In situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) has tracked the reversible evolution of H-bonds, further confirming the existence of HBN structure can stabilize the intermediate 2-electron reaction state. Therefore, PTO-NH2 with HBN structure has higher active site utilization (95 %), better cycle stability and rate performance. This study uncovers the H-bond effect and evolution during the electrochemical process and provides a strategy for materials design.

Abstract
As a promising candidate for large-scale energy storage, aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) still lack cathode materials with large capacity and high rate capability. Herein, a spherical carbon-confined nanovanadium oxynitride with a polycrystalline feature (VNxOy/C) was synthesized by the solvothermal reaction and following nitridation treatment. As a cathode material for ZIBs, it is interesting that the electrochemical performance of the VNxOy/C cathode is greatly improved after the first charging process viain situ electrochemically oxidative activation. The oxidized VNxOy/C delivers a greatly enhanced reversible capacity of 556 mAh g-1 at 0.2 A g-1 compared to the first discharge capacity of 130 mAh g-1 and a high capacity of 168 mAh g-1 even at 80 A g-1. The ex situ characterizations verify that the insertion/extraction of Zn2+ does not affect the crystal structure of oxidized VNxOy/C to promise a stable cycle life (retain 420 mAh g-1 after 1000 cycles at 10 A g-1). The experimental analysis further elucidates that charging voltage and H2O in the electrolyte are curial factors to activate VNxOy/C in that the oxygen replaces the partial nitrogen and creates abundant vacancies, inducing a conversion from VNxOy/C to VNx-mOy+2m/C and then resulting in considerably strengthened rate performance and improved Zn2+ storage capability. The study broadens the horizons of fast ion transport and is exceptionally desirable to expedite the application of high-rate ZIBs.

Abstract
Mn-based cathodes have been widely explored for aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs), by virtue of their high theoretical capacity and low cost. However, Mn-based cathodes suffer from poor rate capability and cycling performance. Researchers have presented various approaches to address these issues. Therefore, these endeavors scattered in various directions (e. g., designing electrode structures, defect engineering and optimizing electrolytes) are necessary to be connected through a systematic review. Hence, we comprehensively overview Mn-based cathode materials for ZIBs from the aspects of phase compositions, electrochemical behaviors and energy storage mechanisms, and try to build internal relations between these factors. Modification strategies of Mn-based cathodes are then introduced. Furthermore, this review also provides some new perspectives on future efforts toward high-energy and long-life Mn-based cathodes for ZIBs.

A QCT View of the Interplay between Hydrogen Bonds and Aromaticity in Small CHON Derivatives. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27186039.

Abstract
The somewhat elusive concept of aromaticity plays an undeniable role in the chemical narrative, often being considered the principal cause of the unusual properties and stability exhibited by certain π skeletons. More recently, the concept of aromaticity has also been utilised to explain the modulation of the strength of non-covalent interactions (NCIs), such as hydrogen bonding (HB), paving the way towards the in silico prediction and design of tailor-made interacting systems. In this work, we try to shed light on this area by exploiting real space techniques, such as the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM), the Interacting Quantum Atoms (IQA) approaches along with the electron delocalisation indicators Aromatic Fluctuation (FLU) and Multicenter (MCI) indices. The QTAIM and IQA methods have been proven capable of providing an unbiased and rigorous picture of NCIs in a wide variety of scenarios, whereas the FLU and MCI descriptors have been successfully exploited in the study of diverse aromatic and antiaromatic systems. We used a collection of simple archetypal examples of aromatic, non-aromatic and antiaromatic moieties within organic molecules to examine the changes in π delocalisation and aromaticity induced by the Aromaticity and Antiaromaticity Modulated Hydrogen Bonds (AMHB). We observed fundamental differences in the behaviour of systems containing the HB acceptor within and outside the ring, e.g., a destabilisation of the rings in the former as opposed to a stabilisation of the latter upon the formation of the corresponding molecular clusters. The results of this work provide a physically sound basis to rationalise the strengthening and weakening of AMHBs with respect to suitable non-cyclic non-aromatic references. We also found significant differences in the chemical bonding scenarios of aromatic and antiaromatic systems in the formation of AMHB. Altogether, our investigation provide novel, valuable insights about the complex mutual influence between hydrogen bonds and π systems.

Abstract
Zinc ion batteries are promising candidates for large-scale energy storage systems. However, they suffer from the critical problems of insufficient cycling stability due to internal short-circuiting by zinc dendrites and zinc metal orphaning. In this work, a polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) is reported as an ion regulating layer and an interface modulator, which promotes a uniform Zn plating and stripping process. According to spectroscopic analyses and computational calculations, PIM-1 enhances the reaction kinetics of a Zn metal electrode by altering the solvation structure of Zn2+ ions and increasing the work function of the Zn surface. As a result, the PIM-1 coating significantly improves the cyclability (1700 h at 0.5 mA cm-2 ) and Coulombic efficiency (99.6% at 3 mA cm-2 ) of the Zn/Zn2+ redox reaction. Moreover, the PIM-1 coated Zn operates for more than 200 h at 70% Zn utilization even under 10 mA cm-2 and 110 h at 95% Zn utilization of the Zn metal electrode. A Zn||V2 O5 full cell employing the PIM-1 layer exhibits seven times longer cycle life compared to the cell using bare Zn. The findings in this report demonstrate the potential of microporous materials as a key ingredient in the design of reversible Zn electrodes.
