Abstract

Aqueous Zn ion batteries (ZIBs) have received extensive attention due to their intrinsic safety, high abundance, and low cost. However, uncontrolled dendrite growth and water-induced side reactions at electrode/electrolyte interfaces hinder the advancement of ZIBs. Herein, density functional theory (DFT) calculation indicates that Zn heptafluorobutyrate can facilitate uniform Zn2+ deposition by leveraging the abundant zincophilic groups (e.g., –COO and –CF) and inhibit water-induced side reactions due to the presence of hydrophobic carbon chains. A Zn heptafluorobutyrate protective layer (denoted as ZFA) is constructed on the metallic Zn surface in situ by acid etching process to control Zn2+ desolvation and nucleation behaviors, ensuring enhanced reversibility and stability of Zn anodes. Consequently, the Zn@ZFA anode demonstrates stable operation for more than 2200 h at 1 mA cm−2 and over 7300 cycles at 40 mA cm−2, with high Coulombic efficiency of 99.8% over 1900 cycles at 5 mA cm−2. Impressively, Zn@ZFA||VO2 full cell achieves exceptional cycle life (204 mA h g−1 after 750 cycles at 3 A g−1) and remarkable rate performance (236 mA g−1 at 10 A g−1). This work provides an insightful guidance for constructing a protection layer of dendrite-free Zn anodes for high-performance ZIBs.

新型氟羧酸锌保护层的设计原理--实现耐用的无枝晶锌金属阳极
锌离子水电池(ZIBs)因其固有的安全性、高丰度和低成本而受到广泛关注。然而,在电极/电解质界面上不受控制的枝晶生长和水引发的副反应阻碍了 ZIB 的发展。在此,密度泛函理论(DFT)计算表明,七氟丁酸锌可利用丰富的亲锌基团(如 -COO- 和 -CF)促进 Zn2+ 的均匀沉积,并因疏水碳链的存在而抑制水引起的副反应。通过酸蚀刻工艺在金属锌表面原位构建了七氟丁酸锌保护层(简称 ZFA),以控制 Zn2+ 的脱溶和成核行为,从而确保提高锌阳极的可逆性和稳定性。因此,Zn@ZFA 阳极在 1 mA cm-2 下可稳定运行 2200 小时以上,在 40 mA cm-2 下可稳定运行 7300 个周期以上,在 5 mA cm-2 下可稳定运行 1900 个周期以上,库仑效率高达 99.8%。令人印象深刻的是,Zn@ZFA||VO2 全电池实现了超长的循环寿命(在 3 A g-1 条件下循环 750 次后达到 204 mA h g-1)和卓越的速率性能(在 10 A g-1 条件下达到 236 mA g-1)。这项工作为构建高性能 ZIB 的无枝晶 Zn 阳极保护层提供了深刻的指导。
