Now, researchers reporting in ACS' Nano Letters ("An Anode-Free Zn–MnO 2 Battery") have made a prototype of an anode-free, zinc-based battery that uses low-cost, naturally abundant materials.

Now, scientists have developed a proof-of-concept, rechargeable zinc-ion battery that forgoes the standard zinc anode, giving it a relatively high energy density (Nano Lett. 2021, DOI: 10.1021/acs ...

Sep 01, 2023 MOF nanosheets as ion carriers for self-optimized zinc anode (Nanowerk News) Aqueous rechargeable zinc ion batteries are promising in electric grid storage due to their low cost and ...

In the symmetric cell test, the SZS@Zn anode showed stable cycling for over 280 hours at a high current of 10 mA cm -2 and a high areal capacity of 10 mAh cm -2, compared to bare zinc, which ...

The conventional zinc foil anode is not conducive to flexible and wearable technology, which is an ever-present form of tech in many people’s lives.
