摘要
• Ag@Zn electrodes are prepared through the displacement reaction process. • Ag layer accelerates the deposition kinetics and facilitates the 3D diffusion. • Ag@Zn anode exhibits stable cycling ability with a small voltage hysteresis. • The Zn ion capacitor shows capacity retention of 96.3% over 3000 cycles. Aqueous Zn-based energy storage devices possess tremendous advantages, such as low cost, high safety, and competitive energy density, due to employing a Zn metal anode and aqueous electrolyte. However, the cycling stability and rate ability of a Zn anode are hindered by Zn dendrite growth and sluggish ion transfer in the electrode/electrolyte interface. Herein, the interfacial properties of Zn anodes are improved through the introduction of a silver (Ag) protective layer, which facilitates uniform Zn deposition and regulates Zn ion transport. As a result, Ag-coated Zn anodes display stable cycling performance (600 h at 1 mA cm −2 ) and low overpotential (150 mV at 50 mA cm −2 after 2000 cycles). The Ag layer in situ electrochemically converts into an AgZn 3 layer and promotes Zn ion desolvation and three-dimensional diffusion processes. Moreover, a Zn-ion capacitor assembled with an Ag-coated Zn anode and active carbon cathode shows a capable cycling lifespan and rate performance. This study provides a feasible strategy for constructing a stabilized and dendrite-free Zn anode for the development of high-performance Zn-based energy storage devices.
