However, existing HGPEs struggle to simultaneously achieve high ionic conductivity, superior electrolyte retention, wide operating temperature range, mechanical robustness, and zinc anode compatibility. Furthermore, traditional stacking architectures lack reliable interfacial bonding among the components of the FZABs under repeated deformation. To address these challenges, an HGPE (cHNBR@PASB) is fabricated by infusing a polyzwitterionic (PASB) copolymer into an elastic fibrous skeleton (cHNBR), and a construction strategy for the corresponding integrated electrolyte-anode component (cHNBR@PASB-i-Zn@Cu) is proposed. Benefiting from strong ion–dipole interactions and abundant hydrogen bonding, cHNBR@PASB exhibits outstanding ionic conductivity (198 mS cm⁻¹) and low-temperature operability. The fibrous skeleton significantly improves both mechanical strength and electrolyte retention (78% after 240 h exposure to air). Furthermore, cHNBR@PASB-i-Zn@Cu is fabricated via in-situ electrospinning-polymerization on zinc meshes and assemble with air cathodes to form FZABs. Through the synergistic effects of stress confinement, homogenized electric field distribution, as well as mechanical interlocking within the integrated component, the resulting FZAB withstands 500 repeated bending cycles while delivering a power density of 212 mW cm⁻², a specific capacity of 783.0 mAh gZn⁻¹, and a cycle life exceeding 330 h.","PeriodicalId":306,"journal":{"name":"Energy Storage Materials","volume":"148 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":20.4,"publicationDate":"2026-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147736159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the inherent challenges including polyiodide shuttle effect, zinc dendrite growth and side reactions prevent their practical applications. This work proposes an innovative “sword and shield” strategy to simultaneously resolve the above issues, through the simple addition of 1,3,5-trioxane (TXE) to a common ZnSO4 aqueous electrolyte. The TXE acts as a molecular “sword” that disrupts SO42–-H2O coordination, directly preventing the formation of contact ion pairs and optimizing the solvation structure of Zn2+. The restructured solvation sheath selectively excludes SO42–, raises the de-solvation energy barrier, and promotes the formation of a stable solid electrolyte interphase on Zn anode. Consequently, water activity is significantly suppressed, the formation of by-products is effectively inhibited, and uniform Zn deposition is achieved. Moreover, the TXE·SO42⁻ aggregates function as a “shield.” They establish an electrostatic repulsion barrier that blocks I3⁻ shuttling, while accelerating the conversion kinetics of I3⁻/I⁻. The TXE-modified AZIBs deliver a high specific capacity of 195 mAh g–1 at 0.3 A g–1, excellent rate capability and superior cycling stability (96.3% capacity retention after 50,000 cycles). And the pouch cell also maintains stable operation for over 520 cycles. This facile and effective synergistic optimization strategy provides new insight into designing high-safety and long-life aqueous halide batteries.","PeriodicalId":306,"journal":{"name":"Energy Storage Materials","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":20.4,"publicationDate":"2026-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147736158","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the phase transition from layered to spinel/rock-salt structure results in severe capacity/voltage decay, thereby limiting their practical applications. Herein, the dopant steric hindrance is proposed to alleviate the irreversible cation migration and phase transition within the highly delithiated LMRs, and further improve their structural stability. It is demonstrated that Be2+ dopant, as the alkali metal ion with a relatively low ionic radius and high bulk charge density, preferentially occupies the Li site of the transition metal layer within the C2/m phase. This unique substitution not only suppresses the phase transition by increasing the migration energy barriers of in-plane and out-of-plane Mn-ion movement from the transition metal layer into Li vacancy of the Li layer, but also improves the reversibility of oxygen anion redox by forming the stable Li–O–Be configuration. Consequently, in a liquid LIB system coupled with Li metal and graphite anode, it exhibits significantly improved overall electrochemical performance compared with the pristine LMRs. The Be-doped LMRs also present superior interface compatibility and stability when matching with halide solid-state electrolyte in the all-solid-state batteries, delivering an ultrahigh available capacity of 292.9 mAh·g–1 and good cycling stability.

In situ, electrodeposited lithium anodes exhibit a notable advantage over thick lithium metal anodes by reducing gravimetric energy density. However, non-uniform electrochemical lithium plating leads to capacity degradation and cell short circuits, which remain major challenges. Lithium nucleation density and subsequent plating in ZESSBs are controlled by two primary factors: (1) the surface energy and chemical reactivity (alloying behavior) of the current collector (CC) with Li, and (2) the surface topography. In order to isolate the influence of interfacial chemistry, we employ nanometrically flat interfaces and a multi-modal operando framework. For this purpose, we utilize a custom-engineered high-pressure optical cell (designed to withstand 50 MPa) that enables simultaneous top-view optical microscopy, confocal Raman microspectroscopy, and galvanostatic electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (GEIS).

However, the realization of dry-processed anodes remains fundamentally challenging because polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), the key binder used in most dry-electrode systems, is electrochemically unstable at low operating potentials. Herein, we present a PTFE-free dry-anode processing strategy enabled by morphology-engineered graphite granules. Graphite granules were prepared via spray drying using an industry-standard CMC–SBR binder system, during which flake-type graphite was randomly reoriented to form isotropic secondary particles with enhanced edge-plane exposure. This particle-level morphology engineering effectively suppresses thickness-directional heterogeneity during dry electrode fabrication, leading to uniform porosity, homogeneous binder distribution, and continuous ion/electron transport pathways across the electrode thickness. As a result, dry-processed graphite anodes with high areal capacities exhibit significantly improved lithiation uniformity compared to conventional slurry-cast electrodes, particularly under thick-electrode conditions. The improved structural uniformity translates into reduced polarization, enhanced lithium-ion transport kinetics, superior rate performance, and stable long-term cycling behavior even at elevated areal capacities. This work demonstrates that particle-level morphology engineering provides a viable and scalable pathway for realizing PTFE-free dry anodes using industry-relevant binder systems, offering a practical solution for high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries requiring high-loading electrodes and fast charge–discharge capability.","PeriodicalId":306,"journal":{"name":"Energy Storage Materials","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":20.4,"publicationDate":"2026-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147736376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
