However, the self-corrosion of the aluminum anode reduces anodic efficiency and battery capacity, limiting the broad commercial application of AABs. Herein, we propose the utilizing Allium Mongolicum Regel (AMR) extract as a green electrolyte additive to optimize the Al anode/electrolyte interface in alkaline AABs. Our findings indicate that the incorporation of AMR into NaOH electrolyte offers an effective strategy for preventing the self-corrosion of the Al anode, leading to significant enhancements in battery performance. Electrochemical experiments demonstrate that AMR achieves an inhibition efficiency of 53.9%. Through in-situ optical microscopy and in-situ attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, it is observed that the introduction of AMR can retard pitting corrosion by adsorbing onto the Al surface. This leads to a significant increase in specific capacity, from 1096 to 1667 mAh g^-1, compared with the electrolyte without AMR for AABs. Further analysis utilizing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, quantum chemical calculations, and ab-initio molecular dynamics determine that 4-hydroxycinnamamide (4-HCAA) and flavone molecules, which are the most active components of AMR, can bind with Al atoms through the carbonyl O functional group, forming an O-Al-O bond, thus suppressing the self-corrosion of the Al anode. The incorporation of the AMR extract into the electrolyte of AABs represents a sustainable approach for optimizing battery performance. This innovative strategy addresses a critical issue in the development of AABs, potentially creating new opportunities for their commercialization and widespread utilization as a reliable energy storage technology.</p>","PeriodicalId":351,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Colloid and Interface Science","volume":"682 ","pages":"983-994"},"PeriodicalIF":9.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142805704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we synthesized a hierarchically structured C₁₈H₃₇-MXene/PA/MS evaporator employing a simple yet effective methodology specifically designed for applications in high-salinity water environments. The evaporator features a dual-region configuration, with an upper hydrophobic light-absorbing layer comprising modified MXene and polyamide (PA) membranes and a hydrophilic lower layer consists of hydrophilic melamine sponge (MS). This innovative design, incorporating an ultra-thin polyamide interlayer, significantly enhances interfacial stability, thereby mitigating the interfacial separation typically observed in conventional Janus materials during prolonged usage. Furthermore, the meticulous control over the thickness of the hydrophobic layer (5.54 μm) ensures optimal thermal insulation properties of the material. Consequently, the C₁₈H₃₇-MXene/PA/MS evaporator demonstrates an impressive evaporation rate of 1.49 kg m^-2 h^-1 under 1 sun illumination, with a high energy efficiency of 92.8 %. Furthermore, the Janus architecture ensures steady performance in high salinity conditions, sustaining a high evaporation rate of 1.46 kg m^-2 h^-1 even in a 20 wt% NaCl solution.
