Tuning Solvation Structures with KPF6 Additives for More Stable Lithium Metal Battery Cycling
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.Introducing an optimal 0.1 m KPF6 additive into the conventional 1 m LiPF6‐EC/DEC electrolyte promoted small aggregate formation, enhanced Li+ transport, and facilitated a uniform SEI, thereby significantly improving the cycling stability of Li‖LiFePO4 cells. Uncontrolled dendrite growth and low Coulombic efficiency remain major challenges limiting the

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.A dual‐interface engineering strategy is innovatively proposed to achieve dendrite‐free Zn anodes through crystallographic orientation regulation and adaptive interfacial protection. By pre‐coating eco‐friendly di‐pentaerythritol, horizontal growth of ZHS along the (001) plane is induced, which in turn guides epitaxial Zn deposition on the (002) plane.

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.This study introduces an MPTS‐modified MXene current collector for anode‐free lithium metal batteries (AFLMBs). A key advantage of MPTS‐MXene is its ultralight weight, only 15% as heavy as standard copper per unit volume. Its special layered structure and Si‐O rich surface help lithium deposit smoothly and flat, while forming a protective layer that ...

In Situ Bilayer Interphase Enables Air‐Stable Li Metal Anode for Long‐Term Li‐Air Batteries
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.An in situ formed bilayer SEI—featuring an Ag/LiF‐enriched inner backbone and a CF3‐dominated hydrophobic outer shell—enables fast/uniform Li+ transport and exceptional moisture‐air stability for Li metal. Lithium metal is an attractive anode for next‐generation high‐energy batteries, but its practical use is plagued by dendrite growth and parasitic ...
