Lean-water hydrogel electrolyte for zinc ion batteries
Nature Communications, 2023 AbstractSolid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) and hydrogel electrolytes were developed as electrolytes for zinc ion batteries (ZIBs). Hydrogels can retain water molecules and provide high ionic conductivities; however, they contain many free water molecules, inevitably causing side reactions on the zinc anode.
