This invention discloses a
zinc anode, its preparation method, and a battery, belonging to the field of electrochemical technology. It solves the problem of reduced coulombic efficiency and reduced cycle life in existing batteries using
zinc-based
metal anodes. A
zinc anode includes a zinc substrate and a composite modification layer coated on the surface of the zinc substrate; the composite modification layer is formed by combining
polystyrene microspheres and an
ionic liquid, and the thickness of the composite modification layer is 5-30 μm. The composite modification layer on the zinc
anode of this invention does not significantly hinder Zn²⁺ deposition. + The transmission of electrons can maintain the
electron conversion reaction in the strong
acid electrolyte, enabling the
battery system to achieve excellent cycle stability while maintaining
high voltage output. The acidic aqueous zinc-
manganese full
cell constructed with zinc anode prepared using this composite modification layer still maintains stable rate performance at
high current density.
