摘要
We show that zinc oxide can be dissolved in the protic ionic liquid 1-methylimidazolium trifluoromethylsulfonate, [MIm]TfO at quite a high concentration (similar to 2.5 mol/L). FTIR and Raman spectra revealed the association of zinc ions with 1-methylimidazole. The ZnO/[MIm]TfO solutions and their mixtures with water were employed as electrolytes for the electrodeposition of zinc. High current density electrodeposition of zinc can be achieved in the employed electrolytes. Spongy-like zinc structures with a high porosity were obtained in ZnO/(MIm]TfO and the formation of Au1.2Zn8.8 alloy was observed. Compact and hexagonal zinc deposits were found in the presence of water. The present results show the potential of ionic liquids as electrolytes for rechargeable zinc-air batteries.
