Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) have attracted considerable attention. However, due to the uneven distribution of charge density at Zn anode-electrolyte interface, severe dendrites and corrosion are generated during cycling. In this work, a facile and scalable strategy to address the above-mentioned issues has been proposed through regulating the charge density at Zn anode-electrolyte interface. As a proof of concept, amidinothiourea (ATU) with abundant lone-pair electrons is employed as an interfacial charge modifier for Zn anode-electrolyte interface. The uniform and increased interfacial charge distribution on Zn anode-electrolyte interface has been obtained. Moreover, the unique Zn-bond constructed between N atoms and Zn2+ as well as the hydrogen bonds are formed among ATU and Ac- anion/active H2 O, which promote the migration and desolvation behavior of Zn2+ at anode-electrolyte interface. Accordingly, at a trace concentration of 0.01 mg mL-1 ATU, these features endow Zn anode with a long cycling life (more than 800 h), and a high average Columbic efficiency (99.52 %) for Zn||Cu batteries. When pairing with I2 cathode, the improved cycling ability (5000 cycles) with capacity retention of 77.9 % is achieved. The fundamental understanding on the regulation of charge density at anode-electrolyte interface can facilitate the development of AZIBs.
