Nevertheless, the commercial separator represented by glass fiber (GF) in AZIBs usually exhibits uneven porosity, poor zincophilicity, and insufficient functional groups, resulting in the emergence of the zinc anode dendrites and side reactions. Designing a separator with specific interfacial ion transport behavior is essential to achieve a highly stable reversible zinc anode. Herein, an anionic metal–organic framework (MOF) functionalized separator (GF-Bio-MOF-100) was presented to accelerate the desolvation process and modulate Zn<sup>2+</sup> flux, thereby delivering the decreased nucleation overpotential and uniform Zn<sup>2+</sup> deposition. The in-depth kinetics investigations combined with the in-situ Raman spectroscopy demonstrate that the carbonyl group within the Bio-MOF-100 is capable of capturing the H<sub>2</sub>O molecules of [Zn(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>6</sub>]<sup>2+</sup> via the H-bond interaction, which further accelerates the desolvation process and transport kinetics of Zn<sup>2+</sup>. Meanwhile, the anionic framework of the GF-Bio-MOF-100 separator acts as an interfacial ion channel to regulate the Zn<sup>2+</sup> flux and enables dendrite-free Zn<sup>2+</sup> deposition and growth. Consequently, the Zn|GF-Bio-MOF-100|Zn symmetric cell exhibited a stable Zn<sup>2+</sup> plating/stripping behavior and it could cycle for 2000 h at 0.3 mA cm<sup>−2</sup>. Additionally, the assembled Zn|GF-Bio-MOF-100|MnO<sub>2</sub> full cell delivers a capacity retention of 83.9% after 1000 cycles at 0.5 A g<sup>−1</sup>.

However, severe anisotropic volume changes and oxygen evolution induced capacity decay and insecurity have hindered their commercial application at scale. In order to overcome these challenges, a kind of tantalum (Ta) doped nickel-rich cathode with reduced size and significantly increased number of primary particles is prepared by combining mechanical fusion with high temperature co-calcination. The elaborately designed micro-morphology of small and uniform primary particles effectively eliminates the local strain accumulation caused by the random orientation of primary particles. Moreover, the uniform distribution of small primary particles stabilizes the spherical secondary particles, thus effectively inhibiting the formation and extension of microcracks. In addition, the formed strong Ta–O bonds restrain the release of lattice oxygen, which greatly increases the structural stability and safety of NCM materials. Therefore, the cathode material with the designed primary particle morphology shows superior electrochemical performance. The 1 mol% Ta-modified cathode (defined as 1% Ta-NCM) shows a capacity retention of 97.5% after 200 cycles at 1 C and a rate performance of 137.3 mAh g<sup>−1</sup> at 5 C.
