Regulating Zinc Anode Interface with an Environmental Biomass‐Derived Additive for Long‐Lifespan Aqueous Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomass‐derived additive synthesized from chitin, 3‐acetylamino‐5‐acetylfuran (3A5AF), resolves key stability issues such as uncontrolled dendrite growth, hydrogen evolution reaction, and corrosion of zinc anodes by reconstructing the solvation structure of the electrolyte and protecting the anode interface. ABSTRACT Aqueous zinc‐based batteries face
