Enhancing Cycling Stability of Aqueous Aluminum‐Metal Batteries via LaCl3‐Modulated Interfacial Reactions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In the aqueous AlCl3 electrolyte of aluminum‐metal batteries, the introduction of LaCl3 adjusts the solvation structure of Al3+ and enhances its diffusion level. The oxide precipitate formed by La3+ covers the aluminum metal anode and effectively alleviates corrosion reactions, thereby improving the cycling stability of the battery.
