Abstract
Aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) are ideal candidates for next-generation energy storage technologies because they possess satisfactory safety, environmental friendliness, natural abundance, high theoretical specific capacity, and suitable redox potential. However, AZIBs are suffering serious anode issues, which limit their practical applications. To overcome these problems, architecting artificial protective layer (APL) on zinc metal is one of common modification strategies, which can effectively surpass the side reactions and dendrite generation by the designed functional coverings. In this review, we discuss the different materials applied in the APL and the corresponding specific working mechanism for anode optimization, as well as the challenges and perspectives of the strategies for APLs. The review aims at providing general principles and suggestions on the development of advanced anodes for AZIBs.
期刊介绍:
The development of the Current Opinion journals stemmed from the acknowledgment of the growing challenge for specialists to stay abreast of the expanding volume of information within their field. In Current Opinion in Electrochemistry, they help the reader by providing in a systematic manner:
1.The views of experts on current advances in electrochemistry in a clear and readable form.
2.Evaluations of the most interesting papers, annotated by experts, from the great wealth of original publications.
In the realm of electrochemistry, the subject is divided into 12 themed sections, with each section undergoing an annual review cycle:
• Bioelectrochemistry • Electrocatalysis • Electrochemical Materials and Engineering • Energy Storage: Batteries and Supercapacitors • Energy Transformation • Environmental Electrochemistry • Fundamental & Theoretical Electrochemistry • Innovative Methods in Electrochemistry • Organic & Molecular Electrochemistry • Physical & Nano-Electrochemistry • Sensors & Bio-sensors •
