Studies on Counter Electrode Materials in Aqueous Zinc Half‐Cell Configurations
Coulombic efficiency is a key metric for zinc reversibility in aqueous zinc‐ion batteries, but its reliability in zinc half‐cells is strongly influenced by poorly understood counter‐electrode materials. By systematically comparing Cu, Ti, stainless steel, and Al to identify reactions associated with current collectors, we find that Ti is the metal ...

Polybromides Attraction‐Repulsion Regulation Promotes High‐Performance Zinc–Bromine Static Battery
Br3− attraction‐repulsion regulation enhances the reversibility and reaction kinetics of Zn–Br static batteries. Coin cell shows a high average discharge voltage of 1.73 V and a fast charge/discharge rate up to 32 mA cm−2. Pouch cell with a high areal capacity of 8.3 mAh cm−2 achieves a real capacity of 365 mAh after 100 cycles.

Basal Plane Graphene Coated Zn Powder for High Performance Aqueous Zn Metal Batteries
A mechanofusion‐driven dry coating forms a hydrophobic graphene shell on Zn powder, stabilizing the electrode‐electrolyte interface. This basal‐plane‐rich protective layer modifies the Zn2+ solvation environment and promotes preferential growth along the (002) plane, suppressing dendrite and parasitic reactions.
