摘要
Different from "bottom-up" Zn plating/stripping, "top-down" Zn stripping/plating provides a new perspective to reinvent current aqueous Zn batteries (AZBs), yet related studies remain absent. Herein, a chelation-induced solvation barrier remodeling strategy is initiated toward fast-kinetics "top-down" Zn stripping/plating in original Zn2+-free water-lean organic electrolytes (WLOE) for durable Zn batteries. It is found that in WLOE, the initial Zn stripping kinetics of the Zn anode remarkably limits the "top-down" Zn stripping/plating. The intervention of multidentate chelant (2-methoxyethylamine, MEA) in WLOE greatly lowers the solvation reorganization energy of in situ stripped Zn2+ from the Zn anode, enabling the fast-kinetics "top-down" Zn stripping/plating. Spectral characterization and fitted overpotential-reorganization energy correlation strongly confirm the underlying mechanism. As such, the Zn stripping/plating in the MEA-mediated WLOE shows a 90-fold-enhanced current response, triple-lowered overpotential, and 170-fold-prolonged cyclability (over 1700 h at 0.5 mA cm(-2)) of those in MEA-free counterpart. The assembled Zn||LiFePO4 hybrid full cell in MEA-regulated WLOE exhibits a distinct and high voltage plateau of 1.50 V and a low polarization voltage of 0.14 V, far surpassing those in conventional WLOE. This work opens a new avenue to break the kinetics bottleneck of Zn stripping/plating in WLOE for durable Zn batteries.
