Anode‐Free Sodium Metal Batteries: From Materials Design to System‐Level Integration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Anode‐free sodium metal batteries hold no sodium reserve, so every inefficiency becomes permanent loss. Resolving the inventory into reversible, dead, and chemically bound fractions exposes what Coulombic efficiency hides. Practical 500‐cycle operation requires above 99.95%, a threshold few systems meet under lean electrolyte and high areal capacity ...

Fire‐Safe Hierarchical Solid Polymer Electrolytes Enabled by Dual‐Functional Microcapsules for Lithium Metal Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Dual‐functional fire‐safe microcapsules are integrated into hierarchical solid polymer electrolytes to provide sequential protection against thermal abuse. The ammonium hydrogen phytate‐modified shell forms a protective char barrier, while the thermally triggered release of perfluoro(2‐methyl‐3‐pentanone) actively suppresses combustion, enabling safer ...
