Aqueous zinc-ion batteries are promising for sustainable energy storage but challenged in low temperatures. Here, authors develop a gradient chaotropic ionic liquid-based aqueous electrolyte design that enables dendrite-free operation and robust low-temperature performance (to −40 °C).
Researchers can in-situ monitor the electrochemical process in the solutes and electrodes of a lab-level battery model system. These model systems are not ready battery products, but one has the possibility to tune the anode, cathode materials, the electrolyte composition, temperature etc. during a programmed voltage cycle.
