Highly Reversible and Safe Zinc‐Metal Anodes Enabled by a Functional and Antibacterial Interfacial Layer
2026
Overview
Indisciplinable dendrite growth, harsh side reactions, and sluggish kinetics at the Zn electrode/electrolyte interface severely obstruct the commercialization of zinc‐metal batteries. Besides, the development of wearable devices has set a higher demand for the safety and biocompatibility of batteries. Herein, an in situ acid dipping approach is devised to spontaneously construct a functional and antibacterial interfacial layer containing carbonyl oxygen groups on the surface of zinc foils, using aqueous malic acid (denoted as MZ@Zn electrode) to tackle the above issues. The interfacial layer possesses satisfactory zincophilicity, promoting the ion kinetics and homogenizing the Zn deposition/dissolution. The MZ layer tightly adhered to the Zn electrode, and the deliberately exposed (0 0 2)Zn planes assure favorable anticorrosive quality. Moreover, the MZ layer possesses high antimicrobial activity, ensuring biological safety. Consequently, the MZ@Zn electrodes display ultralong cycle stability over 3500 h at 5 mA cm−2. Furthermore, the full cells installed with LiFePO4/C (LFP/C) and NH4V4O10 (NVO) cathodes exhibit superior electrochemical performances. Therefore, the stabilized zinc‐metal anode achieved by acid etching to spontaneously construct a functional interfacial layer provides a simple and effective strategy for aqueous zinc‐metal batteries. A functional artificial interfacial layer, containing special carbonyl oxygen groups, is spontaneously constructed in situ on Zn anode by an etching method with malic acid and achieves the long‐term stability of aqueous ZIBs. The carbonyl oxygen with high nucleophilicity and strong zincophilicity can inhibit the side reactions, while enhancing ion‐transfer kinetics and enabling the uniform nucleation and deposition of Zn.
