Abstract
Abstract Rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have been receiving much attention because they are cheap, safe, and environment-friendly. However, their application is bottlenecked by limitation in high-capacity cathode and types of materials to achieve satisfactory cyclability. Therefore, developing new cathode materials for rechargeable zinc-ion batteries is essential. Herein, we report promising ZIBs based on metal-organic framework-derived 2-methylimidazole zinc salt (ZIF-8)/Mn2O3 nanocomposites as cathode and zinc as the anode. ZnMn2O4/Mn2O3 bi-component nanorods were synthesized by annealing ZIF-8/MnO2 precursors, which showed a reversible discharge capacity of 230 mAh g–1 at 100 mA g–1 after 120 cycles and a high capacity of 80 mAh g–1 at a large current density of 1000 mA g–1. The superior zinc storage performance is attributed to the synergistic effect between ZnMn2O4 and Mn2O3.
摘要可充水锌离子电池(zib)因其廉价、安全、环保等优点而备受关注。然而,它们的应用受到高容量阴极和材料类型的限制,以达到令人满意的可循环性。因此,开发可充电锌离子电池的新型正极材料至关重要。在此,我们报道了基于金属-有机框架衍生的2-甲基咪唑锌盐(ZIF-8)/Mn2O3纳米复合材料作为阴极和锌作为阳极的有前途的ZIBs。通过对ZIF-8/MnO2前驱体的退火,合成了ZnMn2O4/Mn2O3双组分纳米棒,该纳米棒在100 mA g-1下循环120次后具有230 mAh g-1的可逆放电容量,在1000 mA g-1的大电流密度下具有80 mAh g-1的高容量。ZnMn2O4和Mn2O3之间的协同作用是其优异的储锌性能的主要原因。
