Abstract
Abstract The in‐depth understanding of the composition‐property‐performance relationship of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is the basis of developing a reliable SEI to stablize the Zn anode‐electrolyte interface, but it remains unclear in rechargeable aqueous zinc ion batteries. Herein, a well‐designed electrolyte based on 2 M Zn(CF 3 SO 3 ) 2 ‐0.2 M acrylamide‐0.2 M ZnSO 4 is proposed. A robust polymer (polyacrylamide)‐inorganic (Zn 4 SO 4 (OH) 6 .xH 2 O) hybrid SEI is in situ constructed on Zn anodes through controllable polymerization of acrylamide and coprecipitation of SO 4 2− with Zn 2+ and OH − . For the first time, the underlying SEI composition‐property‐performance relationship is systematically…
